Through Vetster, you are able to book an appointment with a veterinarian. Veterinarians (Doctors of Veterinary Medicine - DVM) are medical doctors and have completed extensive post-secondary training in order to attain their designation (usually 8+ years). They are able to address unique medical concerns as related to your specific pet; as in, veterinarians can provide personalized advice and care. In certain jurisdictions, they can provide remote diagnosis and prescriptions, however not every state and province permits this.
