Referral Script Form Info
General Header Info | Color Info
The LactForms Referral Script form is a highly effective tool for marketing your services to local doctors and healthcare providers. Instantly downloadable as a PDF file and formatted like a prescription pad in portrait orientation with your practice information as a header, it includes space for the parent and child’s names with checkboxes for common presenting issues.
They're ideal for professional printing as tear-off notepads or sticky notes to distribute to local pediatric, OB/GYN, and other healthcare offices (printing permission document included). Available in blue and grey, with more colors soon.
Experienced private-practice LCs have been using this marketing idea for decades now as the main source of their doctor referrals and a quick way to increase business. Much better than handing out stacks of your business cards, which often end up jumbled up with other specialists' cards in a forgotten area of provider offices.
Providers find printed notepads and sticky pads convenient way to refer their patients to you for lactation services. They just check off a few boxes, tear off the page, and hand it right to their patient, who then has your contact information and a handy reminder to make an appointment with you right away.
Custom printing services for both notepads are available at many places online. Here's a few links (most can also make custom sticky notes):

Header Options
Our Referral Script form looks more professional with the HeaderBox option showing your branding colors and logo. But the other header options work just fine because on this form only they've shorted to the name, credential, phone number, email, and website for easier reading since the pad size is smaller (a quarter of the size of a standard page).

Feedback Welcome
Please share your feedback about how well this works for your practice. I'd also love to know the printing cost so I can let others know what to expect. And of course always feel free to reach out with any questions or other marketing ideas!
