Pet Telehealth and Telemedicine at Atlantic Veterinary Hospital in Seattle, WA

In today’s fast-paced world, convenience and accessibility make all the difference. Our innovative approach to veterinary care allows you to connect with our experienced veterinarians from the comfort of your home, ensuring your pet receives the care they deserve when needed.

What is Pet Telehealth and Telemedicine?

Pet telehealth and telemedicine involve using technology to provide remote veterinary care. Through video consultations and phone calls, our veterinarians may be able to assess your pet’s condition, provide advice, and even prescribe medication without needing an in-person visit. This service is provided only for our patients with current veterinary/patient/client relationship. Telehealth and telemedicine consultations are not appropriate for all medical conditions.

Benefits of Pet Telehealth and Telemedicine

Convenience: With telehealth services, you can consult with a veterinarian without leaving your home. This is especially beneficial for pets who may be anxious or uncomfortable in a traditional veterinary setting.

Accessibility: Telehealth services make accessing veterinary care easier for pet owners in remote or rural areas.

Cost-Effective: Telehealth consultations are often more affordable than in-person visits, making veterinary care more accessible to a wider range of pet owners.

Time-Saving: Telemedicine allows you to avoid the time-consuming process of traveling to and from the veterinary clinic, allowing you to focus more time and energy on your pet’s well-being.

When to Consider Pet Telehealth and Telemedicine

Medical Progress Checkup: We conduct medical progress checkups for patients recovering from illness or surgery via telemedicine.

Minor Health Concerns: If your pet is experiencing minor health issues, such as mild skin irritation or digestive upset, a telehealth consultation can provide quick and convenient advice.

Behavioral Consultations: Telehealth services can address pet behavioral issues, such as anxiety or aggression, through remote consultations with a veterinary behaviorist.
