Referring Providers

For Referring Providers: Collaborative Patient Care

A Trusted Partner for Your Patients

If you're considering referring a patient to Blackline Performance Health, I understand that you're placing a degree of trust in me.

I take that responsibility seriously.

My practice focuses on men's health, hormone optimization, medical weight management, sexual health, body composition, and performance-focused medicine through a personalized telehealth model.

My goal is simple: provide excellent care within my areas of focus while respecting and supporting the relationship you already have with your patient.

Your Patient Remains Your Patient

I don't view a referral as an opportunity to replace a patient's primary care provider or other established clinicians.

I view myself as an additional resource.

When you refer a patient to me for a specific men's health or performance concern, my attention remains focused on the reason they were referred and the services I provide.

I strongly encourage my patients to maintain appropriate primary and specialty care outside of Blackline Performance Health.

Collaboration produces better medicine.

What You Should Know About Your Patient's Care

When your patient is in my care, I personally handle their evaluation and management.

There isn't a rotating group of providers or an anonymous clinical team.

They work directly with me.

My approach emphasizes:

• Individualized treatment rather than standardized protocols

• Appropriate laboratory evaluation and monitoring

• Evidence-informed medical decision-making

• Responsible prescribing

• Attention to medication safety and potential interactions

• Consideration of the patient's overall health—not simply a hormone level or number on the scale

• Recognition of issues that may require evaluation outside my scope of care

If I identify something that warrants attention from primary care or another specialist, I believe that information should get to the appropriate provider.

Communication Matters

Fragmented medical care benefits no one.

With appropriate patient authorization, I welcome communication with referring providers when coordination of care is beneficial.

Whether the patient is seeing me for testosterone replacement therapy, hormone optimization, medical weight management, erectile dysfunction, sexual health, body composition, or another service within my practice, I want the clinicians involved in that patient's health to understand what I am doing and why.

I also value information from referring providers that may help me make better decisions for our mutual patient.

I Know You're Trusting Me With Your Patient

When you refer someone to another medical provider, your own professional reputation is attached to that recommendation.

I understand that.

I want you to feel confident that when you send someone to Blackline Performance Health, your patient will receive individualized attention, thoughtful medical decision-making, appropriate monitoring, and direct access to the provider managing their treatment.

You take care of your patient. I take care of your patient. And when appropriate, I believe we should work together.
