VETERINARY SPECIALIST REFERRALS

If the need arises we have access to veterinary specialists by utilizing telemedicine or we can refer you to the specialist needed for the situation.  We routinely send ECG and chest radiographs to CardioVet board certified cardiologists when we run a cardiac evaluation. Digital radiographs and ultrasounds can also be sent, via Dicom over the internet to board certified radiologists if we need further evaluations of complicated cases.  We perform many surgeries at Coulter Animal Hospital, but some specialized surgeries like spinal surgeries are referred to neurosurgeons in Albuquerque, Lubbock or Dallas.  We primarily refer spinal problems for MRI and possible surgery to the Animal Neurology & Imaging Center in Albuquerque www.theanic.com . Radiation of tumors can be performed at Dallas Veterinary Surgical , Texas A&M Veterinary School, Oklahoma State Veterinary School  and Colorado State Veterinary School
