Book Veterinary Clinics in Islamabad

Veterinary services in the twin cities are concentrated in F-6, F-7, F-10, F-11, I-8 and DHA, with the larger facilities offering in-house laboratory work, X-ray and surgical theatre. Common reasons for booking are routine vaccination and deworming, skin and ear problems, neutering, dental scaling for dogs and cats, and consultations for older animals.

A consultation is generally Rs 1,500 to Rs 3,000, core vaccinations Rs 2,500 to Rs 5,000 per shot, deworming Rs 800 to Rs 2,000, and neutering Rs 12,000 to Rs 30,000 depending on species, size and clinic. Home visits, where offered, are Rs 4,000 to Rs 8,000 plus treatment. Emergency and after-hours attendance is charged at a premium.

Ask whether the attending clinician is a qualified veterinarian and whether the clinic can handle your species, since exotic birds, rabbits and reptiles need specific experience. Bring the vaccination record, carry cats in a secure carrier rather than in arms, and confirm after-hours arrangements in advance, as few clinics in Islamabad run a full overnight service.
