We would appreciate it if you would include the following in the referral letter:

If you first want to consult a neurologist of the clinic sleep medicine about the referral of your patient, please contact us at T (040) 227 90 22 (Kempenhaeghe Heeze) or T (0162) 481 800 (Kempenhaeghe, location Hans Berger Clinic Oosterhout). Then ask for the secretariat of the outpatients' clinic sleeping medicine. Outside office hours or in case of an emergency, please ask for the clinic' sleep medine neurologist in attendance.
After receipt of the referral letter Kempenhaeghe will invite your patient for a first visit. After the first visit and the diagnostic examination Kempenhaeghe will inform you as referrer about the results and any required follow-up trajectory. As referrer the care for most of the patients at some point will be transferred back to you.
