Refer a Patient
Sending a patient our way is simple. Here's everything you need to make a referral, and what to expect once you do.
Why dentists refer to us
Dr. Randolph Cross limits his practice to endodontics, using a Morita Veraview X800 3D CBCT scanner, a surgical microscope on every procedure, and the Endocator™ — a chairside disinfection-verification device he co-developed and patented. We handle routine and complex root canal therapy, retreatment, apicoectomy, cracked tooth evaluation, and traumatic injury cases, and offer same-week (often same-day) emergency appointments.
We work closely with referring dentists throughout the area and send detailed updates after every visit, so you stay informed and can coordinate any restorative work — like a crown — that follows treatment.
How to refer a patient
Choose whichever is easiest for you:
- Call our office at (831) 536-5295 and our staff will get the patient scheduled directly.
- Download and send our referral form — fill it out and fax or email it to us (details below).
- Have the patient call us directly and mention your practice as the referring office.
What to include on a referral
Whatever method you use, this is what helps us most:
- Patient name, phone number, and email
- Your office name and the referring dentist's name
- Reason for referral — e.g. consultation, root canal therapy, retreatment, apicoectomy, CBCT scan only, or another reason
- Relevant findings — e.g. pain/swelling, hot/cold sensitivity, a fractured or broken tooth, deep caries or pulp exposure, a previous root canal, or periapical radiolucency
- Your plans for restoration — e.g. a temporary filling, restoring with a build-up at our office, saving an existing crown or bridge if possible, or provision of post space
- Any existing radiographs or a CBCT, if you have them — otherwise we're set up to take our own
The download is a printable/faxable form. If you'd rather not print anything, just call us with the details above and our staff will fill it in on our end.
