Request an AppointmentWhat to Expect at Your First Visit
We want your first visit to feel easy for you and comfortable for your pet. When you arrive at our clinic at 3752 18th St in Dorr, our front desk team will check you in and get your pet’s information on file. You will then meet a caring technician and one of our veterinarians, who will talk with you about your pet’s health history, lifestyle, and any concerns you have.
Most first visits begin with a thorough nose-to-tail general exam. From there, your veterinarian will recommend the next steps for your pet, whether that is vaccines, preventative care, or diagnostic testing. We take time to explain every recommendation so you can make confident decisions.
How to Prepare
A little planning helps your visit go smoothly. Consider bringing:
- Any previous veterinary records or vaccination history
- A list of medications, supplements, and the food your pet eats
- Notes about changes in appetite, behavior, energy, or bathroom habits
- A leash for dogs or a secure carrier for cats and small pets
- Your questions, so nothing gets forgotten during the visit
You can save time at the front desk by completing our welcome form ahead of your appointment.
