Dear Dr. Smith,

I am writing regarding your patient, Mr. Mark Allen, who was admitted for acute appendicitis.

He underwent a laparoscopic appendectomy and made an uncomplicated recovery. His wound is clean, and he remains stable. He has been discharged with oral analgesics and advised to keep the wound dry.

Please review him in one week for wound and recovery assessment.

Yours sincerely,
