Basic Nutrition Consult
The Basic Nutrition Consult provides a more detailed answer to your nutrition question in a written form. Basic Nutrition Consults are ideal for veterinarians or clients who have questions about how to feed an animal to manage a particular disease or life stage, but do not want a full ration or diet formulation.
All Basic Nutrition Consults are done after the case is reviewed with the primary care veterinarian. The Veterinary Nutrition Consult Request Form (large animal/exotic) should be completed and returned before the consult work can be done. Animal owners should also complete a Diet History Form (large animal/exotic).
Veterinarians and clients will receive a letter with answers to the general nutrition questions.
Cost: Variable depending on the complexity of the questions. Estimated cost will be discussed with the client before work is started.
Complete Nutrition Consult
With a Complete Nutrition Consult, we will gather the animal's medical and diet history and will formulate a ration or diet to manage the animal's unique health needs. The Complete Nutrition Consult should be thought of as a diet prescription for the animal, and is designed to meet the nutritional needs of the animal when commercial diets are not available.
