rDVM Referrals: Share a Complete Patient History With One Secure, Temporary Link
Published on July 11, 2026
Referrals are where veterinary care gets collaborative — and where information most often gets lost. Faxed summaries, incomplete email attachments, clients carrying paper printouts to the specialist: every gap in the record is a question the receiving vet has to re-ask and a test that may get repeated. VetDoze's rDVM referral feature replaces all of that with a single click.
How It Works
When a case needs another set of hands, open the patient's record and click Refer. VetDoze generates a temporary, secure link — valid for 7 or 30 days, your choice — containing the patient's complete file and full medical history.
Send that link to the receiving veterinarian, and only them. They open it and see everything: past visits, diagnostics, medications, notes. No account setup on their end, no file conversions, no "can you resend page three?"
Why Temporary Links Are the Right Design
Patient data deserves protection, and permanent access is rarely appropriate for a referral. VetDoze's expiring links give you control over exactly how long the record stays visible:
- 7 days — ideal for a focused specialist consult or a second opinion.
- 30 days — suited to longer specialist workups or ongoing co-management.
When the window closes, access ends automatically. You never have to remember to revoke anything.
Better Referrals, Better Medicine
A receiving vet who can read the complete history makes better decisions faster. Duplicate diagnostics drop, medication conflicts surface early, and the referral letter becomes a conversation starter rather than the entire record. For the referring vet, it's professional polish: your colleague receives a clean, complete chart that reflects well on your practice.
Seamless Because the Record Is Already There
The rDVM feature works precisely because VetDoze has been building the record all along through the PIMS, the AI Scribe, and your SOAP templates. Referring a patient is just deciding to share what already exists.
Click Refer, choose 7 or 30 days, send the link. That's a modern veterinary referral.
