If you want your pet to be referred to us, it is necessary for you first to discuss this option with your veterinary surgeon. He or she will then either contact us on your behalf or advise that you arrange an appointment with us yourself. If your pet needs to be seen urgently then your vet will need to telephone us in order to arrange the appointment for you.
If you are at all unsure about what to do regarding your pet's referral to us, please do not hesitate to contact our reception staff who will be happy to help.
