Our approach

Our approach to every referral

"We welcome open communication and collaboration — please feel free to call us at any time or visit the practice to discuss cases, treatment planning, or complex endodontic scenarios."

Every patient you refer to Wollongong Endodontics is treated as an extension of your practice. We see the referrer–specialist relationship as a collaborative one — never competitive. Our role is the endodontic phase of care; the long-term restorative relationship remains with you. The patient is returned to you for the definitive crown, onlay, or filling as soon as endodontic treatment is complete.

We keep communication open at every stage. You will hear from us when the referral is received, on the day of the appointment (the consultation report), and again at completion. If at any point you want to talk a case through — before referring, during treatment, or afterwards — call (02) 4208 0155 directly and ask for the treating endodontist. We work alongside you, not instead of you.

Frequently asked questions

Same-day appointments are available for urgent cases where clinically indicated. Call (02) 4208 0155 directly for emergency referrals — please do not use the online form for same-day requests. We reserve time in our daily schedule specifically for referred patients in pain.

Upload radiographs directly via the online referral form (up to 5 files — JPG, PNG and PDF accepted). Alternatively, email them to info@wendo.com.au with the patient name in the subject line, or send them with your patient. We can also retake imaging in-house if the existing films are not diagnostic.

Patient name, date of birth, contact details, reason for referral, tooth number(s), urgency, and your contact details. Clinical notes and radiographs are helpful but not always essential for booking — we can often arrange an appointment and request records separately.

Reports are sent electronically to the email address provided on your referral, typically on the day of your patient's appointment. Reports include clinical findings, diagnosis, treatment plan and operating microscope photographs where relevant.

Absolutely — we encourage it. Call (02) 4208 0155 at any time to discuss a case informally. A brief phone conversation often helps clarify whether referral is needed and what to include.

Yes. Use the online referral form and select your preferred location — Wollongong, Liverpool, or either. Our team will confirm the appointment location when contacting your patient.
