Hospital does a great job of taking care of my pet but they do not respect your time. Even with a scheduled appointment you can expect to wait as long as 45 minutes to be seen. Please manage your books better or give people the courtesy of coming in later if you are running behind.

Pelham location- walked in to find dog poop on the floor near a bench, it had been there quite awhile. after about 15 min a dog had gotten sick and threw up on the floor. a staff member just put a warning near it. I was there for about an hour. no one cleaned up either area. there were enough staff to clean it up. not going back to that location again.

What is an Optimum Wellness Plan?

They include head-to-tail exams, vaccines, early screening diagnostics, consultations for proper nutrition, dental care and more! Since wellness plans are not insurance, they do not include treatment for unpredictable or abnormal conditions, however discounts would apply. Because pets need ongoing preventive care, wellness plans automatically renew at the end of each twelve month period (unless paid in full at enrollment).

You can spread the cost of your wellness plan across the 12 months of your annual agreement to make it easier to budget for the essential health care your pet needs. Your monthly payments can be automatically withdrawn from a checking or savings account or charged to a credit card so that you don’t have to worry about them once you enroll. We also offer the option of paying in full if you prefer.
What kind of appointment do I have?
• In-room appointments: You and your pet visit the vet together. Please arrive a few minutes before your appointment time
• Drop-off appointments: If you have a drop-off appointment, we will communicate a time to drop off your pet. Keep your phone nearby and we’ll call you when your pet is ready for pickup.
