Consultations

We are pleased to offer consultative services regarding clinical cases you are considering referring to us for care, or even cases that will not be referred to the VHC.

Our specialists are happy to discuss complicated or problematic cases with you to provide another perspective and additional ideas. In most cases, such consultations are free. For a few services, such as those offered by our clinical nutrition and radiology departments, there may be a fee. You may access consultation forms for our nutrition and radiology services by clicking on the links.

We welcome your inquiries by telephone call (see phone number in box to the right) or email (vhcrefdvm@missouri.edu). If the consultation is emergent, please call and let the operator know you need to speak with someone right away. Otherwise, we will do our best to call you as soon as possible; we strive to return all calls by the next business day.

A schedule of rounds for each service is provided below. Because we are teaching during these times, we will be unable to speak with you unless you state your call is an emergency.
