What to Expect at a Specialty Appointment
Knowing what to expect at your first appointment will help make the process more pleasant for both you and your pet.
STEP 1
Get Settled
Please arrive approximately 10 minutes early. Your appointment will begin with time to complete paperwork and to meet with one of the technicians or assistants on our healthcare team.
STEP 2
Meet Your Board-Certified Specialist
A member of our specialist team will review your pet's history and discuss their issues. You can ask any questions you want, and we'll take the time to answer.
STEP 3
Examination, Diagnosis & Treatment
Your vet will perform some diagnostic tests, which may include a glaucoma check, tear test, and fluorescein stain. Your pet's eyes may also need to be dilated. If your pet's eyes are dilated, plan for them to be light-sensitive for up to eight hours.
Once your pet has been assessed, we will provide a diagnosis and treatment. Your veterinary specialist will work with you to determine treatment. After your visit, we will also contact your primary care veterinarian and provide a detailed written report about your appointment and treatment plan.
STEP 4
Rechecks Appointment Instructions
Rechecks are to establish medical progress, healing, confirming a medical condition has been treated completely or to do additional diagnostics.
If we have arranged for a Drop Off Appointment for your pet, we will also email you a Drop Off Consent Form to be filled out and returned to us in addition to the form below.
