My vet is far. Can I switch to a closer one and return if needed?

Yes, you can certainly use two different veterinary clinics if you prefer to - I know a number of clients who do this, for similar reasons to what you describe. They may prefer one clinic for illnesses or complicated problems, and use another that is closer to their home or less expensive for vaccines or simple wellness care. The most important thing is to make sure that the staff at both clinics is current on your pet's medical history and any medications she is taking, so that there is no confusion - you can ask to have records faxed to the other clinic after each visit, if needed.

Yes, it's fine to transfer your pup's care to a different veterinarian if you want to - just make sure to bring a copy of his records from the previous vet, so that the new veterinarian knows his medical history and what treatment he's currently getting :)

Sure that is no problem to change locations. Just make sure you request that the initial clinic send his medical records to the new clinic. That way the new doctor can review his record prior to the visit so they know what vaccines he is due for. At your visit with the new doctor just verify they have the medical record so everyone is on the same page for what your pup needs at the visit.

Hello. Yes, you can absolutely do this ( although clinics are usually once a month ). It is never too late to start vaccinating a dog & you are not required to go back to the same site for the booster vaccinations. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Sure, any vet can give the second set of vaccines. Just take her vaccine records with you so the vet know what has been given and when. Make sure to get a copy of any vaccines given so you can give it to the first vet.

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Blue. The incision does look a little red, but it doesn't appear infected to me in the pictures. I'm surprised no vet will see her even though she had her operation elsewhere. You moved, you need a new vet, so you would think someone would take you on as a new client. I would call around to find a vet to get her checked out to be safe. But I don't think it's an emergency. I hope this helps!

Yes, that shouldn't be a problem. Just notify the clinic when you make your appointment that it will be your sister instead of you. They will advise if you need to do anything more. At most, they may require that you sign something giving her permission, but it should not be a big deal. I hope that helps and all is well with Buddy.
