Outside
of these hours an emergency veterinary surgeon is always on duty
on our normal telephone number on Truro (01872) 273408.
Providing
modern day health care to animals can be a costly undertaking and
we appreciate that the unexpected can happen. To that end we are
happy to offer Pet Insurance Information and we support its concept;
however under new government regulations, as it is a financial product,
we are unable to assist on various policies.
Our
current price lists are freely available and estimates of treatment
readily given; however these can only be estimates as by its very
nature medical care is unpredictable and the outcome or course of
any condition cannot be guaranteed or even predicted in many cases.
We aim to discuss costs with clients at every stage allowing informed
decisions and consent to be made at every stage. We use informed
admission and consent forms which allow estimates to be given, discussed
and agreed. We endeavour to discuss all aspects of a patient's progress
and prognosis along with treatment costs at any stage. To facilitate
this a named veterinary surgeon and veterinary nurse are assigned
to every in-patient allowing a personal and direct contact in each
case. |
