This is the last sentence of a medical report and I just cannot think of a way to say "kollegial" in English. This must be a mental block!
The whole sentence is: "Wir danken für die Überweisung und verbleiben mit freundlichen, kollegialen Grüßen."
I have already thought about not translating "kollegial" but I am not sure if that would be correct either. Thanks for your help.
