This vet was very professional. He was patient with my technical difficulties. Patient when I couldnt find my cat. Lol. I was not at my best but he certainly was and was kind about us hunting Bub down to show the cat on the screen. Apparently they can't prescribe without seeing the animal. Which completely makes sense. I just didn't realize. He prescribed the flea and tick medication and gave clear instruction. So don't hesitate to book with him.
