Vet-to-Vet Telehealth Consultations
Would you like help with a case? Whether you are looking for a little guidance on a complicated case or you need some tips to get started, we can help. Here are some options: Brief telephone consultation: This 20 minute appointment is designed to get you pointed in the right direction as you manage your behavior case. During this session, you will have the opportunity to present a brief case summary to Dr. Lindell. She will consider the presenting concern, the relevant behavioral history, the diagnostic test results, and the current medication plan and make some recommendations to help you move forward. Follow up sessions may be scheduled as you collect new information or if you need additional time for a complicated case.
Extended telephone consultation: This is a more comprehensive 30 - 40 minute appointment that can be helpful for cases in which you would prefer more input from the start. To be sure that your appointment is most productive, Dr. Lindell recommends that you ask your client to complete a behavioral history form. These forms are available on our website. You would then email the completed form and the patient's medical record to Dr. Lindell at least 72 hours prior to your consultation. During the session, Dr. Lindell will help you design an initial diagnostic and treatment plan for your client. Video conference with patient present: During this 1 – 1 ½ hour consultation, Dr. Lindell will guide you through the assessment and treatment of your behavior patient. Please email relevant medical records and a completed behavioral history form at least 72 hours prior to the appointment. During the consultation, Dr. Lindell will observe the patient, discuss the patient history, and provide you with a written summary of treatment recommendations. Note: your clients are welcome to attend this video session to facilitate emotional comfort and physical handling of their pet and to provide additional behavioral history if needed. However, all recommendations and written reports will be sent to the primary care doctor who will decide which recommendations are most suitable for their patient. To schedule your telehealth appointment, please email us.
