We recommend seeing an in-person veterinary clinic of your choice if your pet requires a physical examination. For medical emergencies, please contact your nearest Emergency Veterinary Hospital.

TELUS Health MyPet veterinarians can help with general wellness, medical triage, diagnosis and treatment of various medical conditions in dogs and cats. After seeing a veterinarian, you will be given a treatment plan which may include a referral for a physical exam and/or certain diagnostic tests.

Common concerns we see pets for are:

If you have more than one health concern to discuss, the veterinarians will address your highest priority issue first. If not all of your pet's health concerns are addressed, we encourage you to book another appointment the following day.

While we find video-based appointments appropriate for most concerns, there are situations where our veterinarian will advise you to go in-person to a veterinary clinic of your choice for a specific test or examination. In these scenarios, the veterinarian will direct you on the next steps and the level of urgency.

Virtual appointments are not appropriate for the following medical problems and emergency veterinary care should be sought immediately if your pet is experiencing any of the following symptoms or problems:

If the veterinarian determines within the first few minutes of the appointment that your pet's concerns are best suited for in-person care, the appointment will be cancelled and you will be fully refunded the cost of the appointment. The refund is credited back using the original payment method within three to five business days.

We recommend referring to what our veterinarians can help with prior to booking an appointment.

If you notice that the app is not performing as expected, try closing the app and launching it again. If your issue persists, please report this to us by emailing TELUSHealthMyPet@telus.com. In addition, if you can send us a screenshot of the issue, it will help us understand and investigate further.
