FINANCIAL POLICY Our office accepts Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express. We do not accept checks.  During the COVID-19 pandemic, we are not accepting cash. In addition, we also offer several 3rd party financing options for our clients via Care Credit and Scratchpay . We accept a variety of Care Credit plans based on the total transaction amount for your pet. Care Credit requires that payment only be made for services as they are rendered, we cannot charge services to your account in advance. Therefore, Care Credit cannot be used for PAW plan services. Additionally, the use of Care Credit requires that the card be present every time and that two forms of identification are verified. We appreciate your understanding of our desire to protect your account/identity. As financing options are offered, we cannot offer additional in-house payment plans for our services.  Clients needing additional financial support are encouraged to apply for Care Credit with a co-signer. Full payment is due at the time of service. This includes any charges/fees agreed to by my authorized proxy. Our team is happy to provide any client with a written treatment plan prior to services being rendered. The client will be responsible for a 1.5% monthly finance charge on accounts over 30 days and any collection and/or legal fees on accounts over 90 days.
