Why Vet Referral Services Matter
When your pet faces a complex medical issue, such as a rare disease, advanced surgery, or specialised rehabilitation, it’s crucial that they are seen by the right specialist. Our experienced veterinary team will carefully evaluate your pet’s condition and, if necessary, refer them to veterinary specialists.
Veterinary Referrals
We may refer your pet to vet specialists such as:
- Cardiology: For pets with advanced heart conditions or heart failure, a veterinary cardiologist can provide specialised diagnostic tools, treatment plans, and interventions.
- Neurology: If your pet is suffering from neurological issues such as seizures, spinal cord injuries, or brain disorders, we may refer you to a veterinary neurologist for more comprehensive care.
- Oncology: Pets diagnosed with cancer may require the expertise of a veterinary oncologist, who specialises in treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery to manage cancer effectively.
