Getting a dermatology referral to Audubon Dermatology
When a PCP refers a patient to Audubon Dermatology for a skin concern, the referral and its supporting notes are faxed so the office can schedule and prepare for the exam. A complete referral in one fax means the office is not chasing missing history before it can book the visit. Confirm Audubon Dermatology's current referral fax before the primary office sends it.
Biopsy requisitions and pathology at Audubon Dermatology
A skin biopsy taken at Audubon Dermatology goes to a dermatopathology lab with a requisition, and the surgical-pathology report comes back by fax — that biopsy-and-report loop is a defining dermatology workflow. The requisition names the patient, the biopsy site, and the clinical question so the lab reads it in context. Send the report with any images so the finding has its context.

Faxing to Audubon Dermatology — FAQ
It is, provided your fax service is HIPAA-compliant. A consumer app is not enough; the channel has to be encrypted and compliant, which rules out a shared machine. Send FAX Mail includes HIPAA from the Professional plan at $39.99/month and encrypts documents in transit for records bound for Audubon Dermatology. The safeguard is the service you use, not the act of faxing.
The right number depends on which staff should receive the document. Call Audubon Dermatology and ask for records, referrals, or the authorization desk. Confirming the line first is a two-minute step that prevents a misrouted record. Skip the stale listing and confirm the line at the source.
File a signed authorization with the office's records staff. The records staff confirm the fax destination for the authorization. Include the patient's name, date of birth, and the dates of care and record types. Once processed, Audubon Dermatology releases the records to you or the party you named.
As a dermatology office, Audubon Dermatology usually runs one working fax at the front desk, with records or the referral desk sometimes on a second line at a busier practice. The line is shared, but the person who works it varies by request. Ask Audubon Dermatology which line fits your document to be sure. Keep the confirmed number with the patient's file so you are not searching next time.
Continuity is coordinated by faxing the visit note, the diagnosis, and any pathology from Audubon Dermatology to your primary care office. Confirm the destination fax with Audubon Dermatology before you rely on the report being sent. Keep the confirmation until the report is acknowledged. Confirm the current fax with Audubon Dermatology before you send. Doing it that way avoids the most common cause of a delay.
