Currently, we are scheduling Virtual Visits upon client request or doctor recommendation only. If you would like to schedule a virtual visit, please fill out this form:

A Virtual Vet Visit is a video-conference consultation with a RFVS veterinarian about your pet’s health, much like you may have now experienced with your own human physician. This enables you and your pet to possibly stay at home while still “seeing” a veterinarian! Dr. Abby Bowers and Dr. Skye Doerscher will be providing these virtual vet visits.

The cost for these visits are $35. If your virtual vet visit results in an in-person appointment being scheduled at Risius Family Veterinary Service, you will receive the cost of the virtual visit – $35 – credited towards our normal Exam/Consultation fee in the hospital. This credit will be applied on the day of your in-person appointment and is non-transferable.

We will be using Zoom software to complete the Virtual Vet visit. Please see the following links to download the software on your mobile device (tablet or phone).

Please download this software prior to your appointment time.

You are welcome to use a desktop computer, but it needs to have video and microphone capabilities for easiest accessibility.

Please be ready 5 minutes before your appointment time. As this is a video meeting, please be in a quiet, well-lit area of your home and have a good internet connection with audio and video capabilities.
