WHAT CAN I EXPECT AT MY PET'S INTERNAL MEDICINE APPOINTMENT?

Your consultation appointment with the internist comprises several components:

  • The internist technician will obtain a thorough history of your pet, reviewing records from your family veterinarian.
  • The internist will review your pet’s medical history records as provided by your pet’s other health care providers.
  • The internist will discuss and review your pet’s current health status as reported by you.
  • The internist will then perform a thorough physical examination.
  • If the pet is coming for a consultation for a health problem (rather than for a specific test), the internist will discuss a number of things with you including next steps (such as additional tests that might be recommended), treatment options, and a long term care plan. This discussion will focus on the health of your pet, addressing concerns and answering questions you may have. Should treatment of any kind be indicated, we will discuss your options including expected outcomes (prognosis), recovery, and costs. Decisions on treatment are made jointly with you, so it is important that the person(s) responsible for the patient is present to ask questions and provide information about the pet’s behavior, routines, and history.
  • If the pet is coming for a specific test (such as an ultrasound), the internist will perform the test, discuss results with you, and make recommendations for next steps or further treatment.
      Please allow 1 to 2 hours for this entire discussion.
