Letter to referring veterinarians from Caroline Garzotto, VMD, DACVS, CCRT >
The Board Certified veterinary surgeons at Saint Francis take a team approach to cases, often consulting with specialists and experienced clinicians in other disciplines to ensure that multiple leading medical minds contribute to successful outcomes. This is often a significant benefit to having surgical procedures done at Saint Francis Veterinary Center, as patient cases can be reviewed on-site by veterinarians in Ophthalmology, Internal Medicine, Cardiology, Diagnostic Imaging, Oncology and other sections of the hospital.
