Driyu profile vs vet clinic portal records: overlap and gap
Clinic documents and the information you maintain in Driyu serve different purposes. Keep originals and distinguish private care records from public recovery details.

Quick answer: Keep the clinic’s original records and use Driyu to organize the information you maintain. Private medical records and files are different from the limited recovery details visible on a public tag scan.
A note about veterinary care
This article is for organization and general education only. It is not veterinary advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always ask your veterinarian about your pet's health, medications, vaccinations, weight, symptoms, or care plan.
What the vet portal does
Ask your clinic which records its portal provides and how to request or download a copy. Portal features vary. Keep original visit summaries and documents rather than assuming every detail is available in one place.
What the Driyu profile does
Driyu separates the public recovery page from private care records. Medical Records organizes vaccinations, medications, conditions and alerts; Cloud Vault holds files. Scanning a tag does not open that full private history. A saved medical alert appears publicly only when active and enabled for scans; older allergy information may appear when there are no such alerts.
Where the gap sits
Review the information you enter in Driyu against your clinic’s records. A useful summary is not a replacement for the original document, and granting shared account access is different from showing a finder the public tag page.
How Driyu fits
Use Driyu to keep useful information organized. Bring the relevant original records or copies to a new veterinarian and confirm what the clinic needs.

Frequently asked questions
Will my vet portal share records with Driyu automatically?
No. The owner brings the summary into the profile after each visit.
Should I link the portal to Driyu?
This flow has no automatic clinic-portal import. Obtain complete readable records from the clinic and use the appropriate private tools; avoid putting clinical documents into public photos or notes.
Which is more comprehensive?
The clinic remains the source of the records it creates. Driyu helps organize owner-maintained information and supports recovery and shared care with the appropriate access.
What if I switch vets?
Request the records from the former clinic and confirm the new clinic has what it needs. Bring current medicines and relevant copies as instructed.
