As a referring veterinarian, you can transfer your patients directly to us from your hospital, direct your clients here from home, or provide them with our contact information. Please don’t hesitate to call and consult with one of our doctors prior to referral. When referring a patient, please send any pertinent records, labs, or other diagnostic results. We also will gladly provide you with estimates for your clients.
If you have a patient needing an ultrasound or CT scan, please call ahead. Our board-certified radiologists are available Monday-Friday, and they can sometimes accommodate same-day procedures during business hours when the patient presents through our emergency service first.
If your patient requires immediate care from one of our specialty services and there is no same day appointment availability, they can be admitted through our emergency service. Once admitted, your patient can be transferred to the appropriate service for ongoing care.
After an emergency visit or consultation, our doctors will send you a referral letter containing your patient’s updated medical record. If your patient is hospitalized with us, we will continue to maintain contact with you throughout hospitalization until the patient is discharged. At that time, we’ll send updated medical records, including radiographs and follow-up care instructions, so that your records are accurate and complete, and you feel prepared to provide medical support.
