Merge Field for Patient's Physician

As dentists, we often need to communicate with the patient's physician.  We wanted to set up quick letters to the patient's physician for things like premedication, questions about health issues, pregnancy preferences, sleep appliance prescriptions, the list goes on.  While we can enter the physician's contact info into the health history field for the patient, there is no merge field for this information so we cannot use it for quick letters.  

It seems like a quick and easy addition to give it a merge field and why list a place for their contact  info and not include an easy way to then contact them?  It would be extremely helpful for the "quick letters" even just to keep their doctor informed of our treatment in medically compromised cases etc.

Thank you for your consideration

    I was just chatting with support to see if this is an option - it is not. Would love to have this option implemented soon!
