How to Make an Appointment

Appointments can be made by calling us at (816) 741-8338 or by emailing us at AnimalCareTeam@aol.com.

Our patients are seen in the following order: emergencies, appointments, and then walk-ins. We appreciate your understanding that emergency patients sometimes may disrupt our appointment schedule, even though we do "plan" for them throughout the day.

We also allow owners to drop off their pets and pick them up later in the day for most procedures. Please arrange this in advance so we can schedule it in the doctor's schedule.

What to Bring to Your First Appointment

1. Any medical history or breeding history you have regarding your pet
2. The phone number and address of any previous veterinarians or breeder
3. A list of any questions or concerns you have
4. The bottles of any medicines, vitamins, or supplements you give your pet
5. The bag of food you are currently feeding your pet
6. A fresh stool sample
7. A urine sample if there have been concerns about urination

If your first appointment is for boarding, you may also fill out the Boarding Instructions form.

If you have pet insurance, be sure to get two copies of your receipts when you leave so you have a copy for your insurance paperwork and a copy for your records.
