Consultants

   
 

In order to bring your pets the best possible veterinary care, we consult with specialists from across North America using telemedicine. Telemedicine is where we send images and other information online to these veterinarians for them to review. The information we would send includes CT images, x-rays, ultrasounds, cytologies, microscopic images, and in house lab results.
