Vetster has launched a mobile app for Android and iOS through which veterinary surgeons practicing on Vetster can offer remote consultations to pet owners.

Mark Bordo, CEO and CoFounder, Vetster.com, said: “Our new mobile app is one more way we can provide veterinary professionals with a flexible platform to connect with pet parents in between appointments, traveling between clients, or from the comfort of home. With just a few taps on their mobile phone, veterinarians connect with pet parents with great video quality, and easy-to-use scheduling and follow-up features.”

So now, at long last, vets can diagnose disease in animals on an even smaller screen than ever before.

What a breakthrough.

The mobile app also means vets can diagnose whilst on the move. 

So, no need for anyone to waste any more time reading a book on the 14:25 from Paddington to Bath Spa, instead vets could be consulting pet owners and examining their animal on their two inch mobile phone screens from the comfort of their train seats.  

Client confidentiality could be a problem on the 14:25, but if they wear headphones and whisper into the phone, things should be alright.

Tunnels might also cause a bit of a problem, but hey, the pet owner can always call back when the train comes out the other side. 

To register to practice on Vetster, visit vetster.com.
