Rhetts mama, thank you so much for the links. I am going to talk to our director of offsite referrals today (we are a larger no-kill county organization) and see if we may have a connection with a cardiac specialist. I am assuming that she needs testing that a regular vets office wouldn't have- anyone know if this is correct?
The examination yesterday was done with our vet just with a stethoscope in the "treatment" area of our building- but this is not an area where we perform surgeries or anything (ie no major equipment). We normally refer offsite to a regular 24 hour ICU vet- does anyone know if they would have the equipment to do further diagnostics, or if this really is going to fall under seeing a cardiac specialty hospital?
I appreciate all the responses, thank you so much! I will be at work today and will ask our referral coordinator- I foster for the shelter but also am an employee there. I will keep you all updated! |
