Need to Refer a Surgery? This is HOW IT WORKS!
Why Choose PEAK Veterinary Surgical Solutions?
PEAK Veterinary Surgical Solutions is proud to be Arizona's premiere option for advanced mobile veterinary surgery. We offer a full service of orthopedic/soft tissue surgeries, including the TPLO, to veterinarians in the greater Phoenix metro area.
- Why refer your clients to a large specialty center that they'll have to wait weeks just to get a consult? With PVSS, after you have made the diagnosis (torn CCL/ACL) you can schedule the actual surgery (TPLO or extracap...) earlier than it would take just to get a consult at a large specialty center.
- Why send you clients on a long journey to a Surgeon you have only spoken to over the phone? Dr. Savicky will commute to your hospital and meet directly with you and your client (if requested).
- Why refer a TPLO or other surgical cases out when you can keep that revenue internal AND save your client thousands of dollars? With PVSS your client will save significantly on many surgical procedures due to the elimination of expensive building, staffing, and overhead costs. Your hospital will also benefit by charging fees for operating room usage as well as anesthetic preparation and monitoring.
Step 1: Contact PVSS
- Once you have completed your exam, made the diagnosis, discussed options with the owner, and completed/emailed all referral forms, please give Dr. Savicky a call and we can schedule the appropriate surgery.
- Dr. Savicky is also available for surgical consults for challenging or difficult cases.
Step 2: Patient Preparation
- Once surgery is scheduled, Dr. Savicky will review appropriate diagnostics and imaging that has been performed by your hospital.
- The attending clinician will have a detailed discussion with the client about the surgery including complications and postoperative care. Dr. Savicky is available for advice or questions about challenging cases.
- We understand you're busy and that you don't always have time to explain all the details of every surgery. That's why we have provided some helpful links that provide detailed information for your clients to review. This includes an entire section for the TPLO surgery.
Step 3: Day of Surgery
- Please have your client's pet dropped off at your clinic in the morning or at a pre-determined time on an empty stomach. Please make sure we also know what medications are currently prescribed.
- Your team will place an IV catheter and have the patient prepared for surgery (TPLO, other...) at the scheduled time. Dr. Savicky will call when he is on his way to ensure pre-medication and induction can take place.
- The well trained staff at your hospital will provide and monitor anesthesia with the input of Dr. Savicky as needed.
- Dr. Savicky will discuss the case and plan with the attending clinician (requested to be present the day of surgery), to make sure everyone is on the same page.
- Dr. Savicky will provide surgical supplies and perform the appropriate procedure. After the surgery is completed, Dr. Savicky will call your client directly to review how surgery went. A detailed surgical report along with a customized discharge will be provided for your records the day of surgery.
Step 4: Follow-Up
- A detailed and customized surgical discharge with medications, incision care, diet, activity restrictions, physical therapy, and recheck times will be provided for your client.
- Suture removal and recheck radiographs (if needed) will be performed by the primary care hospital. Dr. Savicky will be happy to evaluate radiographs and answer any questions as needed.
