Our Veterinary Services
CONSULTATION FOR YOUR PET
Our city is unique in many ways, but one way that especially benefits our patients is the availability of many highly trained veterinary
medical
and surgical
specialists. If we feel a consultation is necessary in your pet's case, we will not hesitate to seek further advice, or to refer you to a specialist if necessary.
ANIMAL HOSPITAL POLICY
As part of our philosophy of complete care, pets admitted to the hospital must have proof of current immunizations. Also, pets in the hospital will be checked for intestinal parasites as well as fleas and ticks. If any of these problems are present, appropriate treatment will be carried out and charges made accordingly.
All dogs admitted to the hospital also will be checked for heartworms, if not previously done so, in preparation for the preventive medication program.
Because our primary obligation is to care for medical and surgical patients, boarding of animals will be done on a space available basis and by appointment only.
The same policies apply to boarding animals as to medical and surgical patients and if, during your pet's stay, he or she becomes ill, the veterinarian in charge will attend him/her as necessary. For this reason, please leave a number where you may be reached.
Telephone medical reports or progress checks by owners on pets are requested to be made after 10 a.m. Your cooperation will assure a complete report when you call and give the hospital staff more time to devote to the care of the patients. Release of patients or boarders will be done only during regular business hours.
ANIMAL HOSPITAL FEES
Hospital fees must be paid in full at the time of the patient’s release. As a service to our clients, we offer Visa, Master Card, American Express, Discover and Care Credit. We encourage discussion of fees prior to treatment of your pet to avoid misunderstanding.
