Referring a Patient to The Lung Center

To refer a patient to The Lung Center, please contact one of our new patient coordinators:

  • 1-844-BWH-LUNG or 1-844-294-5864

You can also call Brigham and Women’s Hospital’s toll-free Physician Referral Service:

  • 1-800-MD-to-BWH or (800) 638-6294.

Both numbers are staffed 8am-5:30pm, Monday through Friday. We will direct you to the physician with whom you wish to speak, as well as facilitate consultations and second opinions. After hours, you may leave a voicemail message. Your call will be returned promptly.

Please use this secure form to request a new patient appointment with one of our physicians. Once the form is submitted, a trained coordinator will contact the patient to schedule an appointment. Referring physicians will be provided with the appointment details.

Lastly, with our newly-updated Physician Gateway, you can make referrals for patients who have previously been seen at Mass General Brigham entities.
