1-800-PetMeds® is helping veterinarians remind pet owners that
their pet has an upcoming appointment
1-800-PetMeds® (NASDAQ:PETS), America’s Largest Pet Pharmacy®,
continues to work with the veterinarian community by encouraging
pet owners to take their pets to the vet for regular check-ups and
for health issues. Over the past few months, PetMeds® has created
an “Exam Reminder Program” to help remind pet owners of their pets’
upcoming veterinary appointments. These reminders are designed to
increase pet owner compliance with their veterinarians’ medical
recommendations, thus helping pets live longer healthier lives. So
far, over 1,000 exam reminders have been sent, and 1-800-PetMeds®
anticipates sending over 25,000 exam reminders by the year-end.
“The pharmacists here at 1-800-PetMeds feel strongly that the
best thing pet owners can do for the well-being of their pets is to
develop and maintain a strong relationship with their
veterinarians. We are certain that if veterinarians let
1-800-PetMeds know when a pet patient is due for their next visit,
the Exam Reminder Program will help improve compliance with
scheduled exams, diagnostic tests, and other treatments that pets
need,” said Eddie Khoriaty, 1-800-PetMeds Prescription Department
Manager.
In addition to the reminder emails and other educational outlets
encouraging pet owners to not miss any necessary vet visits, the
Company also provides a Vet Directory on their site to help pet
lovers find a vet in their area. The Exam Reminder Program is now
in effect and is easy to use. At the time of a prescription
authorization request from 1-800-PetMeds®, the veterinarian (or
designee) can fill out the date of the pet’s next exam and PetMeds®
will remind the pet owner before the exam is due. Along with the
vet community, 1-800-PetMeds® is determined to always keep the
well-being of pets in mind, which entails supporting the need for
regular vet check-ups.
