How do I get referred?
If you and your primary care vet feel that your pet has a condition which is beyond the scope or expertise of what can reasonably be achieved in general practice, then a referral to a specialist is appropriate. Specialists at referral centres have vast experience in their field and access to specialist equipment that might not necessarily be available in general practice.
A referral can only be made by your primary care vet, who will provide us with all the medical information we require in order to treat your pet and discuss the possible solutions with you when an appointment has been made.
