We ve heard about telehealth for people, but now it s there for animals too. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, there s been a significant increase in telemedicine, and some veterinarians are entirely virtual.
The pandemic has proven we can do almost anything from our couches, computers and phones. We ve grown accustomed to all things virtual and it seems our pets are used to it too.
âIt really highlights the value of something like this and it also really highlights where society is living. Even before the pandemic, turned to google, turned to the internet first. It s our first step in almost everything,â says Dr. Sarah Machell.
