Please list your pet’s additional veterinarians and their contact info below.

Please tell us what role each veterinarian has in your pet’s care – is this vet an internal medicine specialist or an oncologist, or does this vet do acupuncture or rehabilitation only?

It is not necessary to list veterinarians that your pet has only seen once unless it was for a significant illness that could relate to your pet’s nutritional plan – for instance, if your pet was hospitalized at an emergency clinic for an illness or had surgery somewhere other than your normal veterinarians’ hospitals.

Please also indicate whether each of these veterinarians has a continuing role in your pet’s care and should be kept up to date on your pet’s nutrition plan.
