I practise out of a number of premises; how do I know which are veterinary practice premises?
Premises likely to be considered as ‘veterinary practice premises’ by the RCVS and the VMD are those
- from which the veterinary surgeons of a practice provide veterinary services; and/or,
- advertised or promoted as premises of a veterinary practice; and/or,
- open to members of the public to bring animals for veterinary treatment and care; and/or,
- not open to the public, but which are the base from which a veterinary surgeon practises or provides veterinary services to more than one client; and/or,
- to which medicines have been and/or will continue to be delivered wholesale, on the authority of one or more veterinary surgeons in practice, even if those medicines have not yet been used or have only been used on your own animals or those of family and/or friends
This is not an exhaustive list of premises that may be considered as veterinary practice premises.
