New Patients


 Please note: We are currently fully booked for initial evaluations. We are compiling a list of referrals for 2025 and will make sure to reach out when we have dates become available!

For New Clients: We work on a referral basis. In order to schedule a new patient for an initial evaluation, we require a signed copy of our veterinary referral form. Please reach out to the veterinarian who has treated your pet for this issue and ask them to send us the signed referral form along with full medical records.

Most local veterinarians should have a blank copy of our referral form on hand. If your vet does not have the form, please have them contact us directly for a copy. 

Once we receive a signed referral, we will reach out to you to directly to schedule an evaluation!
