What to Expect at Your Veterinary Appointment
Knowing what to expect at your first appointment at our veterinary clinic will help make the process more pleasant for both you and your dog, cat or small mammal.
1. Get Settled
Please arrive roughly 10 minutes early to fill out our New Patient Form. To save a bit of time, you can complete the New Patient Form online in advance.
2. Meet Your Veterinarian
Your veterinarian will review your furry friend's medical history and listen to your concerns about their health. You can ask any questions you want, and we'll dedicate time to answering them.
3. Exam, Diagnosis & Treatment
Your pet will be thoroughly assessed by a veterinarian. Once this is complete, we will provide you with a diagnosis and treatment options.
Afterward, we will create a detailed report of your pet's diagnosis and treatment plan. We will keep this information on hand whenever you need it.
