Testimonials from our client partners

The VetCT service allows you to virtually bring specialists into your practice so you can deliver the best level of care possible. I've found it to be most helpful when we have a case that would best be referred to a specialist. Or at bare minimum, the case would benefit from a consultation with a specialist so that we can take the next steps. We struggle with finding specialists with open appointments in a timely manner for patients to get care. VetCT allows us to continue the process of diagnostics and treatment through recommendations of specialists without having to carry out a referral (lack of availability in our area).

Dr Marilyn Brink Animal Emergency & Specialty Hospital of Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA

Working with VetCT has changed our lives. We have been given support on emergency cases that have come through the door, worked up cases that we would have otherwise had to send to a specialist, had specialist opinions on blood results, exotic cases, soft tissue, radiographs, ultrasounds and we have learned so much, especially with neurological cases. Having VetCT has most definitely increased practice revenue and given our clients a better service as more treatments and diagnostics can be completed in-house opposed to the costs of travelling to see a specialist. This has been particularly important to those without insurance or with financial difficulties.

You have no idea how much this service means to me, this is making me a better vet and I’m able to give my patients the best care… I wish I had known about this service a long time ago.
