Due to concerns about the novel Coronavirus and COVID 19, we will begin taking additional precautions to keep our staff, doctors, and clients safe.
As long as we are able, we will continue to see sick pets.
We are postponing most routine wellness visits, including vaccinations. These can be rescheduled once the crisis is over. Puppies and kittens should continue the critical initial vaccination series.
In an effort to reduce contagion risk, we are implementing “curbside appointments”. When you arrive for your appointment please call us at 908-322-7500 to check in and wait in your car with your pet.
A technician will meet you at your car and take a brief history before escorting your pet into the hospital for their exam. Please ensure that your pet is on a leash or in a carrier.
After the doctor examines your pet they will call you with a health assessment and estimate of services before proceeding with any treatment. At this time you can also speak with the doctor regarding other concerns or issues.
At the conclusion of your appointment we will call you for payment and your pet will be escorted back to your car.
Please call ahead for medication and food refills. We will ask you to pay over the phone to minimize the contact between all of us. When you arrive to pick up your medications or food please call (908) 322-7500 and we’ll place it outside the door.
Our temporary hours of operation will be 9-5 Monday through Friday and 9-12 on Saturday. If you do not have a scheduled appointment please call ahead to ensure that we are in the office.
We are cleaning and disinfecting surfaces with increased vigilance several times a day
Once again, pets do not seem to be susceptible to this disease nor to be able to transmit it.
If you yourself are sick with any concerning symptoms (fever, cough), or have been exposed to someone who has or might have COVID 19, and your pet is experiencing a significant health issue, let us know. We will work out a way to help.
