COVID-19

**UPDATED 12/22/2020**

Per recent safety guidelines, we have implemented some restrictions to help keep our clients and employees safe.
  • We are allowing one person to come in per visit. You may wait in the lobby for your appointment, however if we notice that the lobby is getting full, we may ask you to wait in your vehicle until the appointment time.
  • A mask is required inside the building at all times. Please wear your mask properly (over your mouth and nose) to help reduce the risk of spread.
  • In the exam room, please stay seated to allow the doctor and veterinary assistant room to work.
  • If you don't feel comfortable coming into the office, you may still call to check in for the visit. We will also be happy to run medications/supplies out to your vehicle, or you can utilize our new after-hours lockers to social distance.

We are following these protocols because we want to stay open and continue to care for our patients and our community as safely as possible. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this unusual time.
