I absolutely love the Emerald referral portal. It has cut the amount of time I am having to spend sending a referral in half and I don’t have to worry about the referral “fax” not going through. It is very user friendly and quick to use! – Amanda, Referral Coordinator at Bariatric and General Surgery
