Phone: (808)735-7735
BEFORE YOU ARRIVE:
Please call ahead and let us know what symptoms you are seeing.
Keep track of time and frequency of the activity. For example: “he started vomiting at 10am, he vomited 3 times … at 10:15 am there was blood in the vomit.”
If your pet ate something toxic, please bring the packaging, or remaining (uneaten) item.
Please make sure you have your pet’s leash and collar, or make sure he/she is safely inside a carrier.
WHEN YOU ARRIVE:
Please park and proceed to the front desk with your pet.
The technician who evaluates your pet will determine whether or not your pet needs to be brought in for treatment immediately.
A member of our team will ask you to fill out a Client Registration form, triage your pet, and provide instructions for next steps.
