Exact costs Specific posted prices for a defined service at a named clinic. Most reliable when the clinic has claimed its profile on FareVet. If a price was updated by our team, rare errors are possible. Please confirm with the clinic.
Starting cost The minimum price a clinic lists for a service. Final cost may increase with case complexity, for example added diagnostics, anesthesia time, or medications.
Average costs A typical price for a service at a clinic. If the clinic posts a range, for example 100 to 200, we show the midpoint, 150. If the clinic provides a typical price, we show that value.
Estimated costs A price range when an exact price is not available. Sources include a clinic provided estimate or a de identified user vet bill for a similar service. Estimates consider factors like pet size and complexity. Final cost may vary after an exam.
Accuracy note We update cost information daily, errors can occur. Always verify pricing with the clinic before treatment.
Tip Check the source chip on each price: Clinic, User invoice, or FareVet.

Due to current laws in the US and Canada, our veterinarians cannot prescribe medications during telehealth consultations. Prescription laws vary by state and province, and without a physical examination, veterinarians are unable to legally issue prescriptions in a virtual setting.
That said, our vets are here to offer expert advice, help assess your pet’s condition, and guide you on what to do next, whether it involves an in-person visit or other steps to ensure your pet receives the best care possible.

FareVet is currently available in the United States and Canada. We’re actively working to expand our services to other parts of the world, so stay tuned for updates as we continue to grow our reach to make affordable pet care accessible globally!
