We meticulously check every vet's name, address, Vet ID, degree and identification (driver license) and their photograph against the relevant vet board authority.
If your pet requires further diagnostic tests, the vet will discuss the specific tests needed based on the initial examination findings. These tests may include blood work, imaging (such as X-rays or ultrasounds), urine or fecal analysis, or other specialized tests depending on the suspected condition. The vet will explain the purpose of the tests and their potential benefits. They will guide you on the next steps, which may involve scheduling the tests at one of our partner vet clinic or coordinating with a diagnostic facility. The goal is to gather additional information to help accurately diagnose your pet's condition and determine the most appropriate treatment plan for their well-being.
