FAQs

Veterinary nurses do not prescribe medications. However, they can administer prescribed medicines, offer advice on medicating at home, and aid with aftercare. A vet must examine your pet for any new prescriptions or modifications in treatment.

Insurance coverage for nursing consultations depends on your pet’s insurance plan. We advise you to consult your insurance provider to understand which services are covered.

Our team can supply invoices and paperwork to help with your insurance claims. For pets insured through GapOnly partners, we can handle your claim during your visit, so you only have to pay the gap amount.

If, during the nursing consultation, it becomes clear that your pet requires a vet’s attention, we can typically schedule an appointment for the same day or as soon as possible. Our nurses and vets work together closely to ensure your pet receives the right care as quickly as possible.
