Upon arrival, we ask that you come to the check-in window. Once checked-in, you will be asked to return to your car until the vet is ready. The assistant will call the cell phone number provided to review your pets visit details. When finished, they will ask you to meet them at the door. Once inside, the vet will examine your pet. Once complete, the vet will call you to review the findings and confirm treatment plan. Once the exam is complete, the vet or assistant will instruct you to come to the front for check-out. Your assistant will then bring you your pet along with any items being sent home.

Because heartworms are spread by mosquitoes, any pet exposed to even one mosquito should be tested annually. This includes pets that only go outside occasionally. Heartworm disease is VERY common in North Carolina. Tick-borne disease is a growing threat to both canine and human health. Ticks are parasites that attach themselves to animals and people, feed on blood, and transmit diseases directly into the host’s system. The disease occurs when an infected tick bites a dog or a human and transmits the disease into the victim’s body.The most important tick-borne diseases that affect dogs are Lyme disease, Ehrlichiosis, Anaplasmosis, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Babesiosis, Bartonellosis, and Hepatozoonosis. All can have serious health consequences for dogs and many can have serious health consequences for people as well.
