How much will my first visit cost?

Cardiology Workup
Although is is difficult to estimate the cost before examining your pet, here are some useful guidelines.  The initial office visit (examination, evaluation, and consult) is $220.  The typical cardiology work-up and visit will vary between about $600 and $1000, wiith an average of about $800, depending on the tests performed.

An estimate of your cost will be provided to you before beginning any diagnostics.  In general the more information the doctor has available, the more we can fine-tune your pet's care.  In any case Cardiology Northwest is committed to giving your pet the best possible care regardless of how much you choose to spend.

Cardiology Examination & Consult
You also have the option of coming in for an examination-consult if you choose not to do a work-up at this time.  The fee for an initial examination is $110, if no diagnostics are performed.  Dr. Wood will listen to your pet's heart and review its medical history in order to advise you on treatment.
