# Can the veterinary technician email a DVM if needed during the conversation with the adopter? What information can be shared with vets?

## If a vet needs to step in, we’ll guide adopters to the right hospital based on your shelter’s setup.

If a conversation needs to be escalated to involve a veterinarian the pet parent will be referred to a veterinary hospital based on the protocol that your organization establishes when setting up Petszel TeleAdvice. Pet parents are able to share their pet’s shelter medical record using their Petszel web app.
