Referrals are welcome by appointment. Please bring radiographs and a patient history/referral from your family veterinarian. If additional testing is required, it may be necessary to withhold food or water after 10 pm the night before the scheduled consultation, so please inquire when scheduling your pet's appointment.
We will always do our best to be considerate of your time and patience by keeping our appointments on time. There are times when our specialists may need to spend more time with a particular patient who requires extra attention or tend to an emergency. Your patience is greatly appreciated, as you may experience a wait in these occasional circumstances. Be assured, your pet will receive this same attention and care should it ever be required.
Please call us at 626-441-8555 to schedule a Specialty Consultation.
We harness the scale and strength of our global network while acknowledging each individual's contribution. We work locally to improve the lives of all who interact with our brand.
