We’re excited to share that we’ve partnered with VetWise to help support our clients and patients during lunch hours and after-hours when our hospital is closed 🐾
When you call our hospital after-hours and lunch time, your call will be forwarded to VetWise. If you are having trouble to get through on our phone line, you can call them directly at (506) 712-3034.
VetWise is a trusted virtual veterinary service that works alongside our hospital to provide additional support whenever you need it, helping ensure your pet receives timely care, even outside of our regular hours.
When you connect with VetWise, you’ll speak with a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) who will gather some basic information about you and your pet, as well as the reason for your call.
Based on the information you provide, the RVT will perform an initial assessment, similar to what you would experience at an emergency hospital. From there, they will guide you toward the most appropriate next step—whether that’s a virtual consultation or immediate in-person care.
There is no cost to speak with an RVT. If a virtual consultation with a veterinarian is recommended, they will assist you with booking and explain any associated fees.
If urgent in-person care is required, the RVT will help coordinate this for you, including connecting you with the emergency team at Riverview Animal Hospital.
We’re proud to offer this added level of care and support to help ensure your pets are looked after—anytime they need it 💙
Full service Veterinary Hospital located in Shediac, NB Our Hospital is committed to providing excellent quality care to both pets and their owners.
