Dear Bruce and Debbie,
Many thanks for the letter ‘Vets Get Scanning’.
It is written in our practice policy handbook that all new dogs and cats
be scanned during their first visit to Runnymede. I will take time to
remind all vets of protocol at this months practice meeting.
This protocol was in place when I joined the practice 2+1/2 years ago.
I am unsure how long prior to this it was instigated. There may be older
dogs on our books that have not been scanned.
It’s something I will give some thought to. I did like Brendans
(Debbie’ Vet) idea of receptionists and nurses performing the scanning
in the waiting room.
Good luck with the campaign.

We will let you know if they start scanning dogs which have missed the
initial first visit scan.
