Can You Call A Vet To Ask Questions
Is it possible to call a doctor just to ask a simple question? 3
Then I found out that my outer cat has tapeworms and we intend to treat it without over-the-counter medications. But I have 4 other cats, 1 inside and 3 outside, and I have a dog. All I want to know is what happens if I give tapeworms to my other animals, even if they don't have them. But I want to call my doctor and ask if he can get it.
Yes, it's okay to call a doctor and ask questions. However, be aware that what a veterinarian can say is legally limited, especially if you are not a current customer. Veterinarians are legally required to maintain a doctor-client-patient relationship and have sufficient knowledge of the animal you are calling, but they can provide specific information. That is why it is so common for a doctor to say that we really need to see him.
If it's a regular veterinarian who treats your pet, you probably won't have a problem finding answers about the benefits of giving all your pets a tapeworm medicine, because you have a pet Part of the tapeworm discovered.
No, they don't think it's their job, so call when you have 2.
There is only one way to find out! (And if they make things difficult for you, try something else !!)
I call myself all the time.
I am sure they will be welcomed.
