Gather Your Pet's Records

In order for our staff and doctors to be able to prepare for your pet's appointment ahead of time, please email us your pets medical records or let us know where your pet was seen previously and we can call to have their records emailed to us.

If it is not possible to get the records to us ahead of time, please bring any medical history you have when you come in. It's helpful to keep a journal of your pet's health and share it with our team.

• Previous vaccination records
• Prior lab work or imaging results
• List of current medications or supplements
• Notes on any symptoms or behavioral changes
• Don't worry if you don't have everything — our team can work with whatever you have

Arrive & Check In

Our bright, welcoming reception area — complete with our hand-painted pet mural — is designed to set your pet at ease from the moment you walk through the door. Our front desk team will get you checked in quickly and comfortably.

• Arrive 5–10 minutes early for new patient paperwork
• Dogs must be on a leash or in a secure carrier; cats must be in a secure carrier
• Let us know about any anxiety your pet may have

The Examination

One of our licensed veterinarians will perform a thorough head-to-tail physical examination of your pet. This is your time to ask questions — we want you to leave feeling informed and confident about your pet's health.

• Complete nose-to-tail physical assessment
• Oral examination for dental health
• Weight, temperature, and vital signs checked
• Discussion of diet, lifestyle, and preventive care
• Optional bloodwork to screen for underlying conditions

Diagnostics & Treatment

If diagnostics are needed, most can be performed right here in our clinic — no referrals or long waits required. Our in-house lab, digital X-ray, and ultrasound capabilities mean we can often diagnose and begin treatment in a single visit.

• In-house bloodwork with same-visit results
• Digital X-ray imaging available on-site
• Abdominal and cardiac ultrasound
• In-house pharmacy for same-day prescriptions

Before you leave, your veterinarian will walk you through everything — findings, recommendations, and any follow-up care. We want you to feel fully prepared to care for your pet at home.

• Clear explanation of all findings and recommendations
• Prescription filled on-site if needed
• Follow-up appointment scheduled if required
• Our team is always available by phone if questions arise
