Drop Off Appointments

Everyone leads busy lives. Are you having trouble making time to visit your veterinarian? We are pleased to offer our clients a drop-off service. Here's how it works…

Pomeranian in a pouch Drop your pet off between 7:30 and 9am. We'll take care of your pet like it was our own for the day! When you arrive, one of our staff will greet you and assist you in completing a checklist of your concerns and obtain your contact information for the day.

A senior veterinary student or the Veterinarian on service will call you after we have completed a thorough physical examination and assessment of your pet. We will discuss our findings and recommendations over the phone. If your pet is ill, we will discuss how additional testing (blood work, x-rays, or ultrasound) may help us determine the problem. We will also discuss with you our recommendations regarding medications and other ways you can help to keep your pet healthy. We will never perform any testing or treatments without giving you an estimate and getting your consent, therefore, it is essential that we be able to reach you by phone during the day.

You can arrange a time to pick up your pet before 6:00 pm Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday and before 7:30 pm on Tuesday. We will have prepared a written summary of our findings and recommendations for you, and your pet will be ready to join you for your journey home!
