Q: How much does it cost to have my pet seen?
A: Each case cost varies depending on the pet and the reason for which they came in. During your appointment, you can expect our veterinarian to conduct an initial examination of your pet, for which there is a fee. The veterinarian or technician in your appointment room will discuss vaccines, treatment options available and we can provide an estimate for you, and answer any questions you may have. With this information provided during your appointment, you and your family can help to make the best decisions for your pet.
