What is a Nurse Consultation?

This type of appointment is scheduled with one of our experienced veterinary nurses, trained to provide advice on preventative care, diet, exercise and more. Our nurses carry out appointments like post-surgery checks, second vaccinations, blood tests, blood pressure monitoring, nail trimming, routine checks for young animals and others.

Why do Nurse Consultations matter?

Our vet nurses can provide valuable advice on your pet’s overall health and wellbeing, and perform follow-up treatments and procedures based on our vet’s diagnosis. Whenever it’s possible, we’re making sure that your pet has a dedicated nurse to create that special bond of trust and make sure your visit to our clinic is as pleasant and relaxed as possible.

When should you schedule a Consultation with a Nurse?

If you’re unsure if you need to see the vet but you could use well-informed advice, this is when our nurses step in. A consultation with a nurse is ideal for routine health check-ups, weight management and nutrition, dental care and hygiene, post-operative care, wound treatment, medication, training tips and more. 

How can you prepare for a Nurse Consultation?

You can discuss your pet’s healthcare needs like you would do it with a highly skilled friend. Bring any medication, supplements or packaging for potentially harmful substances, just like you would do it for a consultation with the vet.

How do Nurse Consultations help?

A nurse consultation is ideal during busy times when you have to wait for a consultation with the vet. Our nurses won’t set a diagnosis for your pet. However, they are an excellent support in assessing you’re pet’s overall health and wellbeing needs and guiding you on the best ways of caring for your pet.
