On occasion, the Center may be closed for meetings, full staff travel events, Dr. Royal’s lecture schedule, or we’re simply recharging our healing batteries. No appointments will be made for those days and we always post them on the site as early as possible. In the event of unforeseen circumstances, we will reschedule your appointment.
New Patients (Initial Consult Appointments)
An initial, integrative treatment consult with our doctors lasts between 45 minutes to an hour and includes both a full Western exam and Chinese traditional exam. It may also include muscle measurements and other diagnostics. We assess previous medical history, radiographs, and bloodwork, and discuss nutrition, supplements, herbs, and therapies for the owner to do at home.
Please bring any medical records, bloodwork, diagnostic testing, and radiographs with you to your initial appointment. Equally important, please bring any labels from foods, and supplements, as well as a complete list of medications that are being given.
We address the need for other therapies – acupuncture, underwater treadmill, massage, or other treatments. Any Western medical recommendations for diagnostics or treatment will be relayed to your regular veterinarian. The initial consult may include a treatment or combination of treatments with whatever modalities are most needed. New clients may request a specific type of treatment for their appointment, but the doctor has the final say based on the medical condition of the animal.
Subsequent appointments after the initial consult generally run about 30 minutes.
