Small animal surgery service: call ahead before referring

If you're referring a patient to the small animal surgery service at the WCVM Veterinary Medical Centre (VMC), make sure to call ahead first.

The VMC has experienced a surge in small animal surgery cases in December. While the hospital is still accepting surgery referrals, the VMC clinical team reminds veterinarians to call 306-966-7126 (Small Animal Clinic reception) to confirm if the surgery service can provide care for your patient or if the animal will need to be referred elsewhere.

For more information, click here to visit the VMC's online resource page for referring veterinarians. 

The VMC clinical team thanks the veterinary community for its understanding and support.
