This program is designed to support referring veterinarians by providing timely access to advanced diagnostics, helping them make informed decisions regarding follow-up care, ongoing case management, or referral to the appropriate specialty service. By reducing uncertainty and streamlining the diagnostic process, SAVS and STVR work collaboratively with our referral partners to enhance patient outcomes and client care.
