Our Response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19)

Hours of operation:

Monday - Friday 8am-6pm

Unfortunately we are not able to have clients in the clinic with their pets until further notice and are providing "Curbside" service.  Please follow the instructions on the banner on the front of the building when you arrive.  After checking in on the phone you will be given further instructions.

A veterinary technician will then call you to get some basic information on why your pet is visiting us and discuss your concerns.

The doctor will then call you after they have done their exam and will speak with you about her recommendations for care and treatment.  After care has been provided, a veterinary technician will call when your pet is ready for discharge.

  Phone: 608-294-9494 and email: [email protected]  

Remember, our online store is always available to have most medications, Royal Canin and Purina food or other supplies delivered to your home.  By purchasing items from our online store, you're directly supporting our small business but also our online store staff located in DeForest.
