Medical
Bonjour,
Me revoici avec mon document sur le cancer... Le contexte est le suivant... Le médecin parle des voies par lesquelles les patients sont référés aux cancérologues... Les intervenants en question peuvent être les gastroentérologues, les intervenants des services d'urgence, et autres médecins...
J'ai traduit par "previous caregivers" mais je ne suis pas convaincue...
Merci d'avance!
Madeleine

You might also say \"those having previously treated the patient\" but your suggestion has the benefit of being more succinct

previous healthcare professionals
that's how I would say it...that covers doctors, technicians, nurses, etdc

: I like heathcare professionals but not "previous" - it sounds as though they've left the profession

patients can be referred by
To avoid what might be an awkward formulation in English, I would prefer to turn the sentence on its head and say that 'patients can be referred by gastroenterologists ... who have treated them in the past'.
