Welcome To Our Practice

Thank you for choosing us as a partner in the care of your patient. Our goal is to provide state-of-the-art medical care for animals for better and longer lives. We start with an empathetic approach – we understand the stress of illness. We then implement innovative but practical problem solving techniques. Lastly, we work together. We will work tirelessly with you and our client to find solutions. Here’s where to start…

Schedule an appointment

Please ask your client to call us to schedule an appointment at 703-777-5866 or stop in and see us.  We will schedule a first available appointment for them. We do reserve select appointment times for urgent patients. Please call us directly if you would like your patient to be seen sooner, on an urgent basis. If the patient is unstable, we recommend that the patient be brought directly to The LifeCentre and admitted as an emergency patient. Once stabilized, an Internal Medicine consultation will be performed and the patient transferred to the care of the Internal Medicine team.

Referral Preparation:  Fax Referral Form, medical records and blood tests to us at 703.777.9968.

Timely information is critical to the success of any medical care plan. Please complete a Referral Form (click here) and fax it with the medical records to us the day before the appointment. Include doctor's note's and test results for the last 3 months with the medical record. Please ask the client to hand-carry radiographs with them to their appointment. Back-up copies of faxes are helpful as well. Excellent veterinary care begins with complete history information and, combined with careful diagnostics, will help move us towards the goals we establish together.

Please feel free to call us in advance. We especially appreciate your sharing of delicate information such as sensitive patient concerns, family considerations or unique circumstances. Our care encompasses the entire family, not just the patient.

Client and Patient Preparation: Client should complete the Patient Registration Form.

Please ask the family to complete the Patient Registration Form (click here) and fax it to us in advance of their appointment.

Appointment day:  Fax any new test results to at 703.777.9968.

During the appointment we will perform a comprehensive review of the patient’s history and previous diagnostic tests. Diagnostics will be performed, results reviewed and a complete treatment plan developed. At the end of the day a written summary will be given to the client. We will then fax you a complete report with details of diagnostics performed, diagnosis and recommendations. If there are special circumstances (e.g. the patient is returning to you for immediate care) or upon your request, we will also call you with an update.

We believe that working together with you, our team of specialists and the client allows us to deliver the best of care and innovative treatment for better and long lives for our patients.
