We encourage you to consider
pet health insurance for your pet.  It will help cover costs of regular preventive health care as well as any unexpected emergencies and illnesses.

If your pet has an emergency or illness, we will prepare a cost estimate for the treatment plan.  We do require a deposit prior to initiating treatment with the balance due upon the discharge of the pet.

Patient Arrival Policy

Even though we make every effort to make our patients feel comfortable during visits, they may be a little uneasy about new people, new surroundings and other pets. For your protection, and that of others, all pets must be on a leash and properly controlled or in a carrier prior to entering the waiting area.  To allow ample time for all patients and scheduled surgical procedures, we operate primarily by appointment. 

Hospitalized Patients

For the safety and protection of all animals in our care we require all well hospitalized, boarding and grooming patients to be current on their vaccinations and monthly flea medication.  This not only protects your pet but also the other patients of the hospital.  If your pet is not current, we will be happy to get it up-to-date and protected! 

Prescription Refills

All pets on long term medications are required to be examined annually, at a minimum.  Depending on your pet's condition, the doctor may require more frequent examinations or periodic blood testing to ensure the safety of the medication for your pet.

Your understanding and cooperation is appreciated.
