Veterinary Teletriage
What Is Teletriage?
Veterinary teletriage is a convenient and reliable service designed to help pet owners make informed decisions about their dog’s or cat’s health. Through a video or phone consultation, you can quickly determine whether your pet requires immediate medical attention or if it’s safe to wait until regular business hours to see your primary care veterinarian.
​
