Telemedicine Services Available!

Olney-Sandy Spring Veterinary Hospital is offering telemedicine services with Zoom! With the TeleVet mobile app you can easily send virtual consultation requests to us whenever your pet is sick or injured.

Call the hospital to request a telemedicine appointment for your pet. We’ll get you scheduled for the appointment, collect payment, and send you a meeting link.

Make sure you have your pet with you during the consultation.  Click the Meeting link to start the meeting and the doctor will join the call to help get your pet feeling better again.

Telemedicine consults take the place of certain appointments that do not require examining or performing diagnostics on the pet. In some cases, telemedicine may not be the right option and we will need to see them in the hospital for a physical exam and/or diagnostics. 

*Only available for current Olney-Sandy Spring Veterinary Hospital Clients and Patients.

We look forward to talking with you soon.
