What is a Wellness Clinic?

Wellness care focuses on continuous good health of our pets, rather than visiting the vet when you think there is a problem. Although wellness care is most effective if it’s been part of your routine since your pet was a puppy or kitten, there are small yet effective ways to keep your pet healthy. We will share these tips so you can take a proactive approach to your pet’s well-being. In addition to preventive care, we are here to assist our established clients with minor illnesses and injuries that are bound to happen along the way. Wellness care for your pet is really preventative care, but it is never too late to start. 

Details:

• Wellness Clinic ONLY - no emergencies, urgent care, or specialist surgeries. 
• By APPOINTMENT ONLY - if we do not confirm your appointment in the days leading up to your appointment, we will remove you from our appointment schedule and you will have to reschedule. After two missed scheduled appointments, we will refuse services.
• NO CHECKS. NO PAYMENT PLANS. NO CARE CREDIT. PAYMENT DUE AT TIME OF SERVICE. 
• Pets must be in a carrier or on a leash when they are brought in.
• We do not see feral cats or unmedicated aggressive animals.
• Because of space, we do not allow clients to be back in the room with their pets during the exam. 
• You must be an established client to schedule surgeries (including spay/neuter) or get medications. ​

Our clinic was made possible through the generous donation of John and Mary Cooper. The goal of the Cooper Clinic is to help families who cannot afford routine veterinary care, ultimately helping families keep their pets instead of surrendering them to a shelter.
All profits of our clinic go directly back into the shelter. If you would like to donate to this goal, please visit our donation page by clicking here.
