My Relationship With Your Veterinarian

Working in harmony with your primary veterinary care team is of utmost importance. Therefore, all treatments will be confirmed and permission from the veterinarian will be obtained prior to beginning services. I will be communicating with your veterinary office regularly to ensure I have the most up to date information on your pet’s healthcare plan. Treatments will only be performed as ordered by the animal’s current veterinarian. Please be aware that veterinary offices by require verbal or written permission from you in order to release your pet’s medical history.

As a Registered Veterinary Technician I cannot diagnose, prognose or prescribe any medical treatments.
I cannot offer physical examinations, vaccinations or euthanasia services.
I cannot attest to the health status of a patient.
