Introduction
All initial referrals enquiries and appointments are made through your veterinary practice. It is important that we receive a referral letter from your regular veterinary surgeon. Once an appointment has been made you will be sent a letter containing advice about your visit, a map, terms of business and a patient details form for you to complete and bring with you to your appointment. You will also need to bring any recent radiographs and current medication that your horse is taking.
We usually request that you arrive 10 minutes prior to your appointment time to allow our reception staff to book your horse in. If you are unable to keep your appointment for any reason please let us know as soon as possible.
In order to ensure accurate diagnostic testing and avoid delays we may advise you to fast your horse before your appointment. If your horse is on prescribed medication, it is essential that it is continued as normal unless otherwise advised. If you have any concerns, or your horse has special circumstances, please consult your vet. Fresh drinking water should be made available at all times.
Please ensure that whilst on the RVC premises you follow all health and safety advice.
