At Vets in Endeavour Hills, we strongly believe that preventive care and regular health check-ups are essential for pets. We also understand that there may be times when you need support that does not require a vet.

FAQs

Veterinary nurses cannot prescribe medications. However, they can dispense prescribed medicines, offer guidance on home medication, and assist with post-treatment care. If your pet needs new prescriptions or changes to existing treatment plans, they must be seen by a vet.

Whether nurse consultations are covered by pet insurance depends on your policy. We advise contacting your insurance provider to find out which services are covered.

Our team can provide detailed invoices and paperwork to assist with insurance claims. For pets insured through GapOnly partners, we can process your claim during your visit, so you only need to pay the gap amount.

If it becomes apparent during the nurse consultation that your pet needs a vet’s intervention, we can usually arrange an appointment on the same day or at your earliest convenience.

Our nurses and vets collaborate closely to ensure your pet receives the necessary care promptly.
