How Do Virtual Vet Visits Work?
Telemedicine allows our current clients to schedule virtual appointments with one of our doctors to discuss health concerns that may not require a trip to the veterinary clinic. Yet, not all situations are appropriate for a virtual vet visit. So, when is veterinary telemedicine appropriate?
Here are some guidelines:
- Your pet has been seen by a St. Paul Pet Hospital veterinarian in the past 18 months.
- They are having issues with skin (rash, wound, lumps, itching), ear infection(s), diarrhea, coughing, or limping.
- You have questions or concerns about your pet’s quality of life/hospice care, behavior/anxiety concerns, or diet/nutrition recommendations.
If your pet requires any medication following a telemedicine consultation, we’ll prescribe the medicine through SPPH (to be picked up during business hours), send it to you via our online pharmacy (VetSource), or we can fill it through an external pharmacy if needed.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to call our clinic at (651) 789-6275 and we’ll be happy to help!
