Your First Visit
A pet's first visit to the vet can seem a bit daunting, so we've put together a list of info and resources to help you prepare.
For your protection as well as that of others, all dogs must be on a leash and properly controlled while in the waiting area or exam rooms. All cats must be in an appropriate cat carrier or on a leash.
At your first appointment, we will gather information about your pet’s background, health, diet, and training. We can also address any questions or concerns you might have.
Your veterinarian will examine your pet from nose-to-tail, looking for things like heart murmurs, ear infections, and/or parasites. Your vet can also provide pet-proofing tips, training assistance, and parasite protection recommendations.

“Absolutely the most caring people I have ever met. Each person at this hospital is simply amazing! My cat was taken care of with the utmost respect and kindness. At all steps, his evaluation was explained to me, and his issues were resolved quickly. I am so grateful for their level of care and compassion. Bring your pets here for the best care.”
