What is a Veterinary Specialist?

Most veterinarians practice General Medicine focusing on preventative care and are the first-line in treating an illness, injury, or emergency. Many general practice veterinarians will also have areas of special interest. The Veterinary Specialists, however, are those veterinarians who have had advanced training through a Residency Program at a university or through a Mentor who is already a Boarded Specialist. Not until Residents complete a rigorous program through their college and pass extensive examinations can they officially be called Specialists and list their status of Diplomate after their names.

It is not uncommon for pets to experience difficult or unusual illnesses or injuries that require the involvement of a specialist. Specialty practices provide advanced treatment, techniques, and equipment often not practical in a general hospital. Most veterinarians will make a recommendation at the proper time and guide you through the process of a referral.

Circle City’s Veterinary Specialists stay in close contact with you and your family veterinarian regardless of how you came to see us. Experience has taught us that the best care and success comes when all parties work as partners toward the same goal…the well being of your family pet.

If you have concerns about a health issue with your pet, ask your family veterinarian if it may be a candidate for specialty medicine.
