Payment Options
During every visit, a doctor will discuss the recommended treatment options, present you with an estimate of fees for these services, and will answer all of your questions.
To ensure our ability to provide the highest quality of care to each patient we treat, specialty appointments may require a pre-payment. For emergency and critical care visits, a deposit in the amount of the mid-point of the estimate is required at the time of admission.
We value your business and want to protect your personal information. In order to do so, we must stay in compliance with federal security standards, which means that we cannot accept credit card payments over the phone. Taking payments over the phone leaves your information vulnerable. Instead, we encourage clients to make a payment in one of three ways: in-person with our client service team, via our secure online payment portal (links below), or via the Pay My Bill secure link function that we can text or email to you.

Financing Options
We understand that the costs of specialized and emergency vet care may be unexpected. Our goal is to help you make the best choices for your pet by offering several convenient payment and financing options. In addition to online payments, we also accept cash, check, pet insurance and offer the following financing options:
CareCredit is a low-interest credit card exclusively for healthcare expenses. *Available with approved credit.
To apply for Care Credit or make a payment via an existing Care Credit account, select the location where your pet is being seen or has currently received treatment:
The Cost of Your Pet’s Care
During every visit, a veterinarian will discuss the recommended treatment options, present you with an estimate of fees for these services, and will answer all of your questions.
To ensure our ability to provide the highest quality of care to each patient we treat, some specialty appointments may require a pre-payment. For all of our services, once a treatment plan is selected, a deposit in the amount of the mid-point of the estimate is required at the time of service. If any additional diagnostic tests or treatments are required beyond the scope of the original estimate, these recommendations and estimates will be discussed with you. Additional deposits or payments may be required, which can be made in any of the three ways discussed above. Any remaining balance is due at the time of your pet’s discharge.
