Should I call PetGP or go straight to the vet?
PetGP is here to help when you think your pet is unwell, and you just want independent, expert advice about what to do.
After all, in 2 out of 3 cases, we have found that an immediate trip to the vet isn’t necessary. So it makes sense to call us first – which may help you avoid the inconvenience, stress and cost of an avoidable trip.
Of course, there are other times when it’s vital to get your pet to a vet as soon as possible. If you’re unsure, call our expert vets and vet nurses, and we may be able to help you spot a life-threatening problem early on.
If you’ve already seen a qualified vet about a particular issue, we’re only able to give you a second opinion. (Please note that we’ll assume you’re agreeing to this if you call us under these circumstances.)
You should go straight to the vet if the answer to any of these questions is “Yes”:
-
Is your pet having severe difficulty breathing?
-
Is your pet bleeding profusely?
-
Is your pet unable to move?
-
Is your pet in severe pain?
PetGP is here to support you through the COVID19 crisis. Take the pressure off your Vet Practice, call us first.
Our Vets and Vet Nurses can advise what to do at any time of day or night
