2 x COVID-19 Vaccinations 

 

For your reassurance – I have been given two Coronavirus vaccinations (19.03.2021 & 19.05.2021), I am completing a rapid antigen self-test regularly & will be wearing appropriate personal protective equipment when we meet. 

Following the guidelines and triage tool below, it is now possible for me to see some dermatology referral cases, please read this letter outlining TheSkinVet service to my clinics:

20210319 TheSkinVet Dermatology Referral Service (COVID-19) Ver4.0

Most clinics have decided that visiting consultants will be allowed to see cases on site again, although in most cases consultations are still outside.

At present I am trying to catch up with many postponed cases & seeing previous E-Consultations face-to-muzzle for the first time, but I am still accepting new referrals every week.

E-consultations are available for all cases, see http://www.theskinvet.net/veterinary-surgeons/e-consultations/
