Welcome to Pamlico Animal Hospital

COVID-19

** UPDATED 9/4/2020 **
Per recent safety guidelines, we have implemented some restrictions to help keep our clients and employees safe.
  • Please call the office from the parking lot to check-in for your visit. We will ask you which vehicle you are in so that we can be sure to assist the correct client.
  • ** Due to increased numbers of positive cases in the area, we are asking that clients remain in their vehicles during the patient’s visit. If you have any immediate concerns the doctor will either call you from inside or step outside to speak with you. Please DO NOT leave the parking lot once a tech retrieves your pet! We also ask that you wear your mask when a doctor or other employee is speaking with you. 
  • 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.
  • We are also operating under curbside procedures for food and medication pick-ups. Call us, check out over the phone, and we will bring the medication out to your vehicle. 
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.
