Why and when should I refer to a specialist? Our clinic is not a fan of referring for anything we can possibly do in house but I know some of these surgeries or management of a disease, absolutely should be referred out.

Be honest with yourself. If it's outside of your scope of expertise, then a pet is better off to see a specialist - and they should!

Makes sense, thanks :)

Go with your gut. The clinic didn’t take an oath and have to sleep with its decisions but you do. Do what’s best for your patients, yourself as best as you can.

I meant “the clinic” as way of representing expectations from leadership about decisions that weigh against doctors’ autonomy; not trying to sound mean. My hope is that you feel empowered.
:)
