Patient Referrals  

Thank for choosing Veterinary Referral & Emergency Center of Westbury as your partner for emergency, specialty, and advanced care. We sincerely appreciate the opportunity to work with you to care for your patients.

How to Refer a Case

In order to help our veterinary staff accurately assess your patient's current status, we ask that prior to referral, please complete the Vrec Westbury Referral Form below. Pertinent medical records may also be faxed along with the referral form. Alternately, you may have the pet owner bring the records along with them to their pet's appointment. Simply choose the method that's most convenient for you:

Fax: Click the link below to print out our referral form; complete and fax it to 516-420-0122

Client Delivery: Click the link below to print out our referral form, complete it and give it to your client to bring to their first appointment. Note: Your client must call us at 516-420-0000 to schedule a consultation.

By Telephone: Call us at 516-420-0000 to arrange a consultation, schedule surgery, or discuss a case. If our doctors are unavailable, our Client Liaisons are here to help and provide immediate advice.

For Internal Medicine and Oncology contact Angela Potiah and for Neurology and Surgery contact Nicole Newman.

Emergency Cases

Emergency cases do not require an appointment or referral form. A call is always appreciated if possible.

Preoperative Blood Work and X-rays

We recommend that you provide preoperative blood work and thoracic radiographs for all non-elective cases, and for elective cases in patients >5 years of age. This information can be brought by your client, mailed or emailed to us using the referral form. Radiographs should be emailed to vrecradiology@vca.com

As always, feel free to call us anytime at, 516-420-0000. We're here to partner with you on your cases in whatever way works best for you!
