Florida Veterinary Referral Center (FVRC)
About Us
Our Team Approach
As in human medicine, there are times when your pet may require input from more than one specialist. At FVRC, we believe in a team approach to veterinary care. Studies have shown that patients benefit when doctors utilize a collaborative or team approach to patient care. As a specialty referral center, our diverse group of doctors work closely with each other, as well as with pet owners and family veterinarians, helping to ensure the best and most comprehensive specialty and emergency medical care possible for your pet.
