DIET

Many disease conditions in pet birds result from nutritional deficiencies. Despite the statements on seed and pellet products that these are complete diets, there is no standard to which these foods are held, and many of them are markedly deficient in various essential nutrients. The addition of fresh fruits, vegetables and table foods to the diet may add positive psychological components and some needed trace elements, but does not significantly alter the basic deficiencies seen in most commercial diets.

In order to determine to what extent nutritional deficiencies may be playing a part in your bird’s current or potential health problems, we must first determine the content of its diet. Please answer the following questions as accurately as you can. If needed, we can then assist you in reconstructing your bird’s diet to improve its health.

Does your bird dunk its food in water?

I also understand that EVS considered the identification of a primary/referring veterinarian by me to be my authorization to release records and information to the veterinarian.

As leaders and teachers in the Veterinary Medical field, the doctors and staff of EVS may use medical case information for teaching, developing forms, providing continuing education, website, veterinary literature development, social media updates etc. I authorize the release of case/patient information for such purposes. Patient confidentiality will be maintained.

Exam Fees

Emergency Exam Fee is due upfront before the pet is seen. Exam Fees are $175. The exam fee includes the cost of everything and everyone involved with getting your pet here and set up in our system, removing the opportunity to admit other cases, having your pet triaged/examined by any personnel (not only the DVM), and the convenience of being available 24/7. 

Urgent Care Exam Fee is due upon making the appointment. Urgent care appointments can last longer than 1 hour if your pet requires in-depth medical attention such as sedation with a procedure. If our team determines that your pet requires emergent medical intervention, your pet will be immediately transferred to the emergency service, which is more appropriately equipped to provide emergency medical intervention. Our overall goal is to provide and offer the best possible and most appropriate care for your pet. The exam fee is $110 and the cancellation fee is $50 if you cancel less than 48 hours of the appointment. 

Specialty Exam Fees may vary, but cancellation fees are $100 if you cancel less than 48 hours of the appointment. 

Critical Emergency: Sign for Authorization of $800-1000 for Initial Diagnostics

**You will be provided with an estimate for further diagnostics and treatment as soon as we are able.
