In-house Pharmacy

We carry a full line of medications for your pets.

By law, we are required to have a valid patient/doctor relationship to write or dispense a prescription. This means, in order to obtain a prescription, your pet will need to have a recent exam by one of our veterinarians. Please remember to call ahead should you need a refill of prescription medication.
