Four steps, no waiting room, and a written opinion at the end of it. Here is the whole process from first message to final answer.
Use the Ask a surgeon form. Tell us the diagnosis, the quote and what you want to know. Do not worry about being technical, plain language is fine.
We check the surgeon can genuinely help with your kind of case and reply with a fixed price and a secure way to send records and imaging. If it is not a case for us, we say so and point you somewhere better.
Records, imaging, the quote, your questions. If something essential is missing we ask for it rather than guessing around it.
A plain language document answering your questions, with the reasoning shown. It is yours to keep and to share with your treating vet.
An independent expert opinion on a surgical question: the diagnosis, the need for surgery, the technique, the quote, the recovery, the hard decision. In writing, from a surgeon.
A prescription service, a treatment service or an emergency line. Your treating vet remains your pet's doctor. If your pet needs urgent help, call your nearest emergency vet now.
Send the case and get a confirmed price. From $250.
