The Record Review Process

Whether you are interested in taking the first step toward having surgery with Dr. Redwine, or you simply want one of the world’s leading endometriosis experts to review your personal case and evaluate your treatment options, the process is simple. It starts with a request for Dr. Redwine to review your medical records. Please follow the guidelines below.

Please send your records (see Guidelines for Record Evaluation below) directly to Dr. Redwine's office. Please DO NOT send this information to St. Charles MedicalCenter – Bend. Once Dr. Redwine has reviewed your records, he will send you a letter detailing his observations and recommendations. His office will also provide general cost estimates for your case, should you be considering surgery here.

If you were only seeking an expert opinion, that ends the process. You are free to share Dr. Redwine’s letter with your regular physician to decide on the best course of treatment for your case.

If, after reviewing Dr. Redwine’s recommendations you have further questions, or you would like to schedule surgery, please call Dr. Redwine's office directly at 541-382-8622. His staff can provide further cost and insurance information as appropriate and explain travel and lodging options. Dr. Redwine is unable to accept patients with Medicare or Medicaid.
