Pet referral is an approach used by veterinarians to ensure that their patients receive the best possible care, even if it means that they need to refer them to a specialist. However, during the referral process, veterinarians have the responsibility to ensure that all safety standards are followed to minimize possible complications or health risks to the pet.
