- If you wish to drop-off your pet for a period of time that exceeds their 15 or 30 minute appointment slot, please inform the staff and we will do our best to accommodate.
2) All payments, whenever possible, should be done over the phone by credit card.
- We will no longer be accepting cash payment - if this poses a concern for any client please do not hesitate to contact the clinic by phone to discuss further.
3) For over the counter sales (food, other) and prescriptions - please call or text ahead of time to place your request. We will take payment over the phone and prepare your order. When you arrive at the clinic to retrieve your items please call or text and we will meet you at the door with everything you need.
4) Surgical and dental procedures - We will continue to perform all surgical and dental procedures as usual. Discharge information will be provided over the phone and we will continue to provide written homecare instructions upon pick-up.
5) Please ensure cats are safely restrained in a carrier, and dogs are on a leash when arriving for your appointment. If you do not have a carrier or leash then please inform the staff when you call upon arrival, and we will provide one for you.
As a final word, your pet's health is extremely important to us. Despite the current limitations, we will strive to provide the best veterinary care possible for all clients and their beloved pets. We will continue to keep you informed on policy changes as they occur.
