Finding The Right Professionals For Your Home Vet Visit

Market Cross Veterinary Clinic • Feb 07, 2024

Finding the right professionals for your home vet visit is an essential step when prioritising the care of your family pet. We of course all want the very best for our dogs, cats and smaller pets, and when inviting a vet into your home, you’ll likely never want to settle on anything but the best. Consult this helpful guide from Market Cross Veterinary Clinic - a dedicated checklist of exactly what to look for when locating a local vet to organise a home visit - and benefit from advice concerning local reputation, assorted services and pet specifics.



Booking Your Visit

Though home visits differ slightly from conventional trips to the vets, your veterinary surgeon is still there to help you care for your pet and make sure it enjoys a good quality of life - happy to provide tailored advice if you ask for it. Getting to know your veterinary surgeon, your veterinary practice, and the team of dedicated professionals who run it, is one of the best things you can do for your pet prior to a booking, and from there, it’s fairly straightforward. Simply ring the practice and arrange a time that suits you, with a friendly professional arriving at your door when necessary.


Professional Services

Professional services can’t be overseen by just anyone - your practitioner should be highly trained, and this is always the case when you choose Market Cross Veterinary Clinic. If your pet needs a surgical procedure, we’re the team to choose. Though not always applicable for a home visit, our state-of-the-art facility has all of the latest equipment for ultrasonography, digital x-ray, video endoscopy, blood biochemistry, haematology and microscopy. We accurately diagnose what’s going on with your pet and provide the medical or surgical intervention they need.


Particular To Your Pet

There’s no point booking a home visit from an individual with limited experience caring for your particular animal, and while most vets carry out a variety of medical and surgical procedures, there may be times when it’s better for a specialist vet to take over. Think about what range of pets the practice usually treats - if you’ve got an unusual or exotic pet, it’s worth finding a vet who has experience with that species. From ferrets to parrots, at Market Cross we’re competent professionals with a knowledge of all breeds.


Locally Trusted

Though they don’t mean absolutely everything, reviews and solid recommendations can be a really useful way of finding a vet. Find out what other pet owners in your area think about their vet – but consider whether they have the same type of animal as you, because different pets have different requirements. If there’s overwhelmingly positive feedback, you may be onto a winner!

 

At Market Cross Veterinary Clinic, we’re passionate about animals and we put their health and wellbeing at the heart of everything we do. At our veterinary hospital, we provide a range of quality veterinary care services for dogs, cats, birds and other small pets, so contact today and arrange your professional home visit.
