netWell has announced a new partnership with whiskerDocs to provide members with discounted access to round-the-clock veterinary telehealth support.
Through the partnership, members of the nonprofit health care sharing ministry can connect with veterinary experts at any time to discuss pet health concerns and receive guidance on potential next steps for care.
The service is designed to help pet owners address common questions about their pets without needing to immediately schedule an in-person veterinary appointment.
Expanding access to veterinary guidance
whiskerDocs provides telehealth support for pet owners through a team of licensed veterinarians and credentialed veterinary technicians. The platform allows users to consult with veterinary professionals through phone, online chat, or email.
The service covers a range of common pet health questions, including behavioral concerns, medication guidance, symptoms of possible illness, wellness advice, and assistance determining whether a visit to a veterinary clinic may be necessary.
Examples may include situations such as a pet suddenly losing its appetite, displaying unusual behavior, or potentially ingesting something harmful.
Bob Malone, president and chief executive officer of netWell, said the partnership reflects the organization’s broader effort to support members in practical ways.
He noted that expanding access to veterinary expertise allows members to make more informed decisions about their pets’ care while providing reassurance during unexpected situations.
Membership benefit and service access
Under the program, netWell members receive a 25 percent discount on whiskerDocs services. After registering, members can contact a veterinary professional at any time to discuss concerns or ask questions about their pets’ health.
The organizations say the partnership is intended to help households manage everyday pet health needs while improving access to reliable veterinary guidance.
