Vet referral
How referral works
By law, veterinary physiotherapy needs your vet’s consent. It is a quick step, and I am happy to handle it for you.
01
Get in touch
Book online or message me with a few details about your animal and your vet practice.
02
Vet consent
If your animal is registered at Rackheath Vets, it is a simple internal referral. If not, I contact your vet for you.
03
First appointment
Once consent is in place, we book your assessment at the clinic or at home.
For vets
Referring a patient
I work closely with referring vets and send a short report after the initial assessment, with updates as the patient progresses. To refer, email me with the patient’s details and relevant history, or ask the owner to book and I will request consent.
Questions
Good to know
Does my animal need to be registered at Rackheath Vets?
No. Any animal can be seen at the Wednesday clinic or at home. If you are registered elsewhere, I simply contact your vet for consent first.
How long is an appointment?
Allow about an hour for a first appointment, including the assessment, treatment and your home plan. Follow-ups are usually a little shorter.
Clinic or home visit: which is better?
Both work well. Home visits suit horses, nervous animals and anyone who finds travel hard. The clinic suits dogs who are happy in a vet setting, and is easy if you are already nearby.
Will my insurance cover it?
Many pet and horse insurance policies cover veterinary physiotherapy when your vet refers you. It is worth checking your policy, and I can provide the paperwork you need.
How many sessions will my animal need?
It depends on the reason they are being seen. After the first appointment I will give you an honest idea, and we review progress at every visit.

Not sure if physio could help?
Tell me a little about your animal. I will let you know honestly whether physiotherapy is the right next step, and help arrange your vet’s consent if it is.
