Valleyview and Chase Veterinary Clinics are now offering Telemedicine for your pet family!
We are pleased to offer you a consulting option from the comfort of your home. If you have recently returned home for self-isolation, caring for a sick family member, are immunocompromised, live remotely or for any other reasons may be choosing to not leave home, but still need access to Veterinary Care, telemedicine offers a solution. Much like virtual doctor’s appointments many issues can be addressed or triaged by phone.
If you would like to access this service, please phone our reception at 250 374-5649, or email [email protected] and we will arrange a video call between the doctor, yourself and your pet. We will listen to your pet’s health history, we will see your pet via video feed, and triage your pets care. We can advise if we recognize your pet has a minor ailment that can be resolved at home, or if we recommend that your pet to come into the hospital for further examination, blood testing or xrays.
After the consultation, if determined by the veterinarian, we can have prescription medications couriered to your door or made ready for pick up.
The viral pandemic has caused much unrest in our lives and routines, and we want pet families to know that we are here to ensure that your pets health is priority. We are committed to community care and will be donating $5.00 from every consult to the Kamloops Food bank to support vulnerable local families during this difficult time. Please contact us for any further information regarding this service.
