Our sincere apologies, we are temporarily unable to accept patients > 40lbs for abdominal ultrasound. Thank you!
We do accept large dog echocardiogram referrals.
We are currently scheduling non-urgent appointments for early November. We continue to try to accommodate patients needing urgent echocardiograms. Thank you for your continued support. Happy fall, Knoxville Veterinary Community!
We are now requiring that all patients receive oral calming medications prior to imaging appointments unless contraindicated for your individual patient.
We have found oral calming medications significantly improve our patients’ comfort while lowering respiratory and heart rates. For medications and dosing we suggest trazodone, gabapentin, or a combination of both be administered PO the evening before and two hours prior to travel. We follow FearFree guidelines for Pre-Visit Pharmaceutical available here.
Please reach out if you have any questions or need assistance with referring a case. Thank you for entrusting us with your patient’s care.
