Veterinary Consultation & Clinical Medicine in Pimple Nilakh, Pune
A thorough, unhurried examination is the foundation of good medicine. Dr. Pritesh takes the time to examine every system, understand the history, and explain the findings clearly.
What Happens at a Consultation
At Shivraj Pet Clinic & Lab, every consultation follows a structured approach that leaves nothing to chance. Dr. Pritesh reviews the history, performs a complete physical examination from nose to tail, and integrates findings from any diagnostics run the same day.
You receive a clear, honest explanation of what was found, what it means, what the treatment options are, and what to watch for at home. We don't rush appointments and we encourage questions — because an informed pet owner is the most important part of any treatment plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a consultation cost at Shivraj Pet Clinic?
Consultation fee is ₹300, payable at the clinic. All costs for diagnostics or treatment are discussed and agreed upfront — no surprise bills.
Can I come without an appointment?
Walk-ins are accepted during clinic hours. For complex cases or if you want to ensure a specific time slot, calling ahead is recommended. Emergencies are always seen immediately.
Do you treat cats and exotic animals, not just dogs?
Yes — Dr. Pritesh treats dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, turtles, guinea pigs, hamsters, and other exotic species. We're one of the few clinics in PCMC with this range of expertise.
What if my pet needs multiple tests the same day?
We prefer to complete diagnostics in one visit where possible. Our in-house lab, X-ray, and ultrasound mean most diagnostic workups can be done same-day without referral.
Can I get a second opinion from Dr. Pritesh on a serious diagnosis?
Absolutely. We encourage second opinions for cancer, neurological disease, organ failure, and any condition where the diagnosis will significantly change the pet's management. Bring previous records and we'll review them honestly.
