If your pet is insured, please bring an insurance claim form to your appointment, with the relevant sections completed and signed. We require payment of your policy excess on the day of your consultation.

We advise you to contact your insurance company and check that your policy covers the condition for which your pet has been referred. Also be fully aware of any limit or exclusions on the amount of veterinary fees covered.

Uninsured pets

If your pet is not insured you will pay a 50% deposit of the maximum estimated fee (which may be set out on the Consent Form). In all cases, payment is required upon discharge of your pet from the hospital.
