Can Orchard Park Veterinary Medical Center be my pets regular veterinary clinic?
No, the philosophy of our Referral practice is to provide only specialty services for the specifically referred condition to pet’s sent here by their regular veterinarian. We can offer emergency & critical care services as well, if needed, but preventative care, like annual physical exams, routine vaccines and surgery should be provided by your pet’s regular veterinarian. OPVMC works directly with your regular veterinarian once referred here to coordinate care of its condition. The specialist ends the referral relationship when the pet has finished diagnosis ands treatment for the reason it was sent here. Once your pet has completed the course of treatment for the condition they were referred, the patient should return to the referring veterinarian for their routine veterinary care.
