We are an extension of care for your patients
Sometimes a patient comes to you as their primary veterinarian and you would like the patient to be examined by a surgeon. VetSurg would like to help you with those more challenging cases.
We respect and reinforce your relationship with your clients, working closely with you to meet their medical needs. Think of us in this way. VetSurg is an extension of care that you provide for your patients. Just like primary doctors for humans are confident in referring their patients to specialists, we would like for you to have that same confidence in us.
