Fear Free Check-in: Once you have arrived in our parking lot, please CHECK-IN through our FunkstownVet App, by visiting https://go.v2p.us/l/5IKg or by calling 301-733-7579 to let us know you are here. If you do not have a cell phone each door has a call box that you can speak directly with a member of our CSR team. Once it is time for your appointment a technician will call you prior to entering t

he building and will es**rt you directly into an exam room. Fear Free Exam Rooms: We have implemented numerous measures to establish a fear-free environment for our patients. Utilizing soft music and pheromones helps in creating a calming atmosphere. Additionally, we may find the need to limit the number of individuals present in an exam room with your pet. This may involve limiting the number of pet parents accompanying a pet into the exam room, asking someone to briefly step out of the room, or suggesting curbside visits for those with accompanying children. These adjustments are aimed at ensuring the comfort and well-being of our furry patients during their visit. Curbside Services are offered for:

Those showing signs and symptoms of cold or flu. Those with small children. Any pet owner that prefers Curbside or pet parents of Protective pets

Why: Not all pets thrive with their pet parent present. Some pets exhibit heightened protectiveness over their owners and may feel more at ease when they don't sense an immediate need to safeguard their human family. Curbside appointments for technician visits:

Exam rooms are reserved for wellness or sick visits with a Veterinarian. For this reason, technician visits will be done as a curbside service. Once you have checked in, (see above) a technician will speak with you about your pets’ health and care before bringing your pet inside for their requested treatment. Medication pickups:

It is recommended to call prior to arrival to finalize payment. Once you have arrived, call 301-733-7579 to let us know you are here. A staff member will bring your medication to you. Arrangements can also be made to have the medication ready in a pickup box located at the main glass door entrance from our parking lot.

A Fear Free 2020

What if a veterinary visit could be something you and your pet look forward to?

Fear Free veterinary medicine was a concept that was started in 2016 in response to concerns from veterinary professionals and owners alike about how their patients and pets were responding to basic medical care. Since then it has become one of the single most transformative initiatives in the history of companion animal practice, by focusing on the emotional well-being, enrichment, and the reduction of fear, anxiety and stress of our pets.

We at the Animal Health Clinic practice Fear Free methods on both our canine and feline patients. Why? Simple, because it’s better medicine. Stress slows the healing process. It skews results of blood test and vital sign readings. When pets are happy and calm instead of fearful, anxious, and stressed, the physical exam and blood chemistry yields better information.

When a pet is feeling stress, his or her owner’s level of stress will usually increase as well, which only serves to further increase the fear, anxiety, and stress in the pet. Fear has been shown to cause mental and physical illness in bother people and animals.
