Military family constant turnover
Naval Station Norfolk PCS and deployment cycles overwhelm local clinic new-patient capacity year-round.
Norfolk is home to the world's largest naval base, and military families here face constant deployments, PCS moves, and limited clinic capacity. TelaVets delivers licensed veterinary care by video to Ghent, Ocean View, and every Norfolk neighborhood.

Military-focused vets who understand Naval Station Norfolk life

$65 flat fee — no Granby Street clinic parking hunt

Naval Station Norfolk anchors the city's identity — the largest naval installation in the world means constant military family turnover, deployment separations, and pets left with spouses managing care alone. Urban Norfolk neighborhoods like Ghent and Colonial Place face parking challenges near Granby Street clinics, while humidity drives heartworm and ear infection rates.
Whether your Naval Station family needs deployment support or your Ghent apartment cat has a UTI, TelaVets provides same-day video consultations. $65 flat fee with prescriptions across Norfolk.
Naval Station Norfolk PCS and deployment cycles overwhelm local clinic new-patient capacity year-round.
Norfolk practices serve Virginia Beach, Portsmouth, and Chesapeake — stretching appointments across the region.
Ghent and downtown Norfolk clinic visits require scarce street parking and traffic navigation.
Military spouses managing pets alone need flexible vet access during irregular duty schedules.
Ear infections and skin issues require frequent follow-ups that multiply clinic visit burdens.

Anxiety medications for deployment and PCS transitions
Heartworm prevention prescriptions for Hampton Roads
Ear medication for yeast and bacterial otitis
Kennel cough treatment and boarding preparation protocols

Vaccinate against kennel cough before military housing dog park visits
