What to expect
When you arrive at Lenity Vet Specialists, a receptionist will check you in, and a veterinary nurse will triage your pet so we may determine their stability. Practicing triage means we must treat patients in their order of need, not their arrival order. If your pet needs to be hospitalized, the admitting veterinarian will discuss with you the recommended treatment plan.
Toxicities
The ASPCA hotline is a resource for pet owners who are concerned their pet has ingested something that may be poisonous. ASPCA Poison Control has a database of known toxins, their effects, and how they should be treated.
