After appointment FAQs
We hope you had a good experience at Dr. Alexanders Clinica para Animales. Below are answers to some commonly asked questions from other clients of Dr. Alexander:
WILL I RECEIVE CONSULTATION NOTES?
Unfortunately, no. Most the vets in Tijuana, including Dr. Alexander’s clinic, do not provide consultation notes. So, if your pet got a surgery with Dr. Alexander there will not be any document describing the surgery or the details of the surgery, etc.
Here’s what you can expect to receive:
- Lab results
- Prescription information
WHEN SHOULD I EXPECT TO RECEIVE MY LAB RESULTS?
Please note that consultation or lab results might be in Spanish. If you need help translating the documents, Google Translate and Chat GPT are great tools. You can also reach out to the vet for translation assistance.
