Patient History Form

Welcome to Buffalo City Vet! We are excited that you have chosen us to be a part of your pet’s health care. We are dedicated to providing convenient, comprehensive, and cost effective care for your furry family member! This form is intended to collect the information necessary for us to initiate, populate, and maintain appropriate client and medical records and most importantly to obtain pertinent medical and and historical information about your pet. This form may take some time to answer and we apologize for all the work that goes into getting this done. Just know that a lot of this information is important and that we are only collecting it to make sure we have all the information we need to help make your pet feel better. Please get the INTAKE and CONSENT form filled out first, then work to tackle this one. We can get started working with your pet while you’re working on this form.

Name(s)?(Required)
We know this is a little redundant, you just filled out names on the last form but this helps us match the history form to the intake form! Please enter your full name AND your pet’s name.
Tell us a little bit about why your pet is here today. If you filled this out completely on the first form just say “see intake form”. Sometimes, parents remember things as they work through these forms, this gives you the chance to add additional information.
This may include allergies, vaccine reactions, surgeries, trips to the emergency room, or other ongoing issues that have required veterinary care.
