Patient Information
What to Expect at a Veterinary Appointment
Knowing what you should expect from your first appointment with us will help to make the process more comfortable and pleasant for both you and your pet.
Get Settled
We encourage all of our clients to arrive about 10 minutes early to their appointment. For new clients, this gives you time to fill out our New Patient Form. To save some time, you can also complete the New Patient Form online in advance too.
Meet Your Veterinarian
One of our veterinary team members will meet with you in order to review your pet's medical history an discuss any health issues they may be experiencing. This is your chance to ask any questions you have too.
Examination, Diagnosis & Treatment
Once your pet has been assessed, we will provide you with a diagnosis and options for treatment. Your veterinarian will work with you to determine a treatment plan for your pet.
After your visit with us, we will create a detailed report of our conversation, the diagnosis we made and the treatment plan we created for your pet. This information will be on hand for whenever we or you require it.
