COVID-19 Safety Precautions
Face masks are encouraged when visiting the Veterinary Medical Center hospitals.
For customers who are immunocompromised, ill, dropping off injured pets or otherwise unable to enter the clinic, curbside drop-off service will be made available. We ask that you please notify us prior to your scheduled appointment so that we may make appropriate arrangements and provide you with specific information.

Exam rooms are disinfected after every visit.

After taking a brief history, agreeing upon goals of your visit and discusssing a treatment plan, the clinical team member will take your pet back to the treatment area and you are welcome to wait in our lobby or in your vehicle, depending on what is most comfortable for you.
