About Vet

*****PLEASE DO NOT SCHEDULE IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A PRESCRIPTION ***** *!!!!!IMPORTANT PLEASE READ BEFORE SCHEDULING!!!!!

Veterinary practice acts are state specific and regulate what can qualify as a veterinarian-client-patient relationship (VCPR). A VCPR is REQUIRED in order to prescribe medications legally. Currently, VERY FEW states allow for a virtual visit to qualify as a VCPR in order to prescribe medication. NONE of the states that I am licensed in (Oregon, California, North Carolina, Florida) allow legal prescribing of medications without an in-person physical exam. I cannot prescribe medications for your pet unless I have examined them in-person within the last 12 months.

UPDATE!!! Effective January 1, 2024 - IN CALIFORNIA ONLY Assembly Bill No. 1399 will go into effect which will allow telemedicine to establish VCPR and be able to provide prescriptions depending on the situation. I do believe long term medication should be managed and approved by primary veterinarian in your local area
