Receiving results from the lab is only part of the process, as a Vet needs to be able to sit down and take the time to interpret what they mean and then formulate a plan for your horse. This takes time, so if your results are in and you have not received a call yet, we promise it is on the Vet’s to-do list and they will get back to you as soon as possible. You can help make the process quicker by having your phone ready for when they call, so you do not end up playing ‘phone tag’ extending the process. Receptionists and Nurses, while often knowledgeable about certain conditions, are not legally allowed to interpret lab results, so they will need to defer you to the Vet for this reason.
