Referral Management for UK Dental Practices

Your practice.
Your portal.
Under control.

For the cost of one scan a month, your team gets their time back.

AKPro Referrals gives your practice a fully branded referral portal — so every inbound referral is structured, tracked, and managed from one dashboard. No chasing. No missed referrals. No compliance headaches.

Live in 24hrs

Your staff get their time back

No more manually updating every referral, calling GDPs with status updates, or hunting through emails. The platform handles it automatically.

GDPs refer in minutes, not days

Your referring dentists get a clean, simple portal. They paste their notes, the AI structures the referral, they review and submit. Done.

You stay compliant without trying

IR(ME)R documentation, GDPR data handling, and CQC audit trails are built into every referral by default. Nothing to configure.

Sound familiar?

Still managing referrals on paper, email, or the phone?

Manual referral management is slow, error-prone, and leaves your practice exposed on compliance. There's a better way.

Without AKPro Referrals

  • Referrals buried in a shared email inbox — easy to miss
  • No single view of what's pending, booked, or complete
  • Your team manually chasing and updating every referral
  • Results sent via WeTransfer links that expire
  • No centralised record of who referred what, or when
  • Scrambling to produce audit evidence for CQC
  • IR(ME)R compliance left to chance
  • Good referrals quietly leak to whichever practice is easiest to refer to

  • Every referral lands in a structured, organised inbox
  • Clear workflow — accepted, booked, in progress, complete
