New Appointment Protocol

        We here at Paws & Claws Animal Hospital are staying on top of the Covid 19 CoronaVirus situation. We are following every CDC protocol to try and keep our clients and staff members safe. So in doing so we are changing our appointment protocols. As of right now we are asking all clients to please wait in their cars. When you arrive for your appointment we ask that you call the clinic and let us know you are here, we will then take the patients history over the phone, once a room opens up we will then come out to your vehicle and bring the patient back into the room while you remain in your vehicle. Dr. Hanusz will then do her examination and if we have any other questions or concerns will call you on the phone to discuss these. Once the appointment is finished we will take payment over the phone and then return your pet and your receipt to you. We are trying to minimize as much person to person contact as we can. We are also taking precautions and using the proper disinfecting methods to help eliminate as much contamination as possible. This does require certain contact time so please be patient with us so we may properly clean and disinfect before each appointment. 

        We only have the best interest for our clients and our staff at heart. With that being said we would appreciate it if you are feeling sick in any way that you would either allow someone else to bring your pet in or reschedule your appointment until you are feeling better. We are also asking this of our own employees. 

We greatly appreciate your patience and understanding with us at this most difficult time.

Prescription Protocol change

      We are asking 24 hour advance notice for all prescription refills (both online and in clinic). This will ensure accuracy of your pets medication. We also ask that when you come to pick up these prescriptions that you stay in your vehicle and give us a call when you get here. Payment will then be taken over the phone and your prescriptions and receipt will be delivered to your car. Again this will minimize people in our reception area and keep person to person contact down. Thank you for your understanding.
