IF YOUR TREATMENT IS COVERED BY INSURANCE

We have a dedicated Insurance Team who process all claims on your behalf. 

There is a list of insurance providers (see below) with whom we are able to make a direct claim. In these cases, you only need to pay your policy excess at the time of treatment. 

However, if your insurance provider is not on the list, we do require full payment at the time of treatment and the insurance company will reimburse you later, in line with your policy terms.

ESTIMATES

We are always happy to provide a written estimate before proceeding with treatment. Estimates are based on our expert judgement and on years of experience. However, the estimate may be exceeded if further investigation reveals that additional or alternative treatments, or operative measures, are considered necessary and in the best interest of your pet. Please ask us for regular updates of ongoing treatment and the costs involved when your animal is hospitalised so that you know what you will be asked to pay.
