The Pet Clinic welcomes dogs, cats and New Pets:) ferrets, rabbits, birds, reptiles, rodents, etc.
The consultations offered at the CHUV cover all disciplines. Two levels of consultations are proposed:
Here is the list of services that take care of animals according to their condition:
The Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vétérinaire is a teaching aid for veterinary students at the Nantes - Oniris veterinary school. This is why, in the care departments, you will be welcomed by 4th and 5th year veterinary students who will carry out an initial assessment of your animal. You will then be seen by a veterinary doctor, the department's clinician, who will examine your pet and will be solely responsible for making diagnostic and therapeutic proposals.
The Veterinary Hospital departments all work in close collaboration with each other. Some complex or multidisciplinary cases may require the involvement of several departments. The Veterinary Hospital has a high-level technical platform, particularly in the fields of medical imaging, interventional endoscopy, laparoscopic surgery and intensive care.
The emergency department is open 24 hours a day, enabling animals to be treated at any time, either outside the opening hours of the pet clinic or when no appointments are available for general consultations.
Consultations and procedures carried out at the veterinary school are not free. You will need to bring a cheque book with you. Fees are comparable to those charged by other veterinary establishments.
No expensive procedures are carried out without prior agreement. An estimate of costs is given at the end of each consultation, before any further examination or hospitalisation.
If the animal is hospitalised, a deposit cheque corresponding to the estimate will be requested; this will not be cashed and will be returned once the final invoice has been paid.
Payment of the invoice is due in full when the patient is discharged. The Emergency team cannot under any circumstances deal with requests for payment facilities. Such requests should be made during working hours to Mme Gigant (tel: +33 (0)2 40 68 77 90).
