A Team Approach: Veterinary Specialists Help Primary Care Vets Improve Pet Health


Collaborative care to enhance patient care outcomes happens when primary care veterinarians enlist the help of qualified veterinary medical specialists to solve complex cases or those requiring resources unavailable at the primary care clinic. Veterinary specialists have completed years of additional training beyond the D.V.M. credential and are equipped to handle a variety of pet care needs, from sophisticated diagnostics to medicine, surgery and more. On this show, Dr. Elizabeth Maxwell, a veterinary surgical oncology specialist, will discuss the importance of collaborative care and how she and her team routinely work with pet owners and their local veterinarians to maximize pet health.
