Plans & Pricing
Plans & Pricing
Each of our plans is uniquely designed to meet your–and your pet’s–needs. What’s included in each plan varies slightly, but the goal is the same: to deliver the highest quality of care and help you make informed decisions related to your pet’s quality of life.
Our plans include time for our board-certified veterinary internist, Dr. Burtch, to:
- Perform a comprehensive review of medical records and lab work
- Communicate with you, the client
- Assess changes to your pet’s health and plan accordingly
- Communicate with your primary care veterinarian (if applicable)
- Provide recommendations for ongoing care
We understand that the cost of care can often inhibit providing the best care for your beloved pet. Please know that we will work quickly and efficiently for you. To reduce your cost as much as possible, it is best to be prepared with all your questions before your consultation.
We use a veterinary health platform called IDEXX NEO to schedule all of our appointments and house all of your pet’s information in one convenient place. When you sign up with one of our plans, simply accept the invite from our clinic to create an account with IDEXX NEO. This will give you access to your pets’ records and allow you to schedule consultations in the future. Take comfort in knowing that all information remains confidential.
