Referral Criteria
Community health-care providers can refer patients to SickKids outpatient clinics using a secure web portal called EpicCare Link. Before you submit a referral, please review the clinic's referral criteria and guidelines.
This page currently lists referral criteria and guidelines for some of our outpatient clinics. Criteria and guidelines for the remaining clinics will continue to be added. Please continue to check our website periodically as updates will be ongoing.
Select a clinic or condition from the menu to review the referral criteria. If the clinic or condition criteria is not listed, please proceed to make your referral.
