Apparently Ellenville Shoprite doesn’t think these are important. Tonight a manager refused to make an employee wear one. My associate Dr Laux was asked “do you know how hot it is to wear one for 4 hours?” Yes, Virginia, we do because every one of OUR staff wore one since before 8 am

IMPORTANT COVID UPDATE:

As many of you already know we have been changing our protocols in real time to keep up with the rapidly changing recommendations by state and federal authorities regarding COVID-19 safety measures. There are a few important updates we want to share with you.

We are very pleased to have been officially confirmed as an essential service and WE WILL REMAIN OPEN. We are taking serious precautions to keep our doctors and support staff safe so we can continue to be able to care for your pets.

The major changes are noted below.

ALL PATIENTS WILL BE ADMITTED CURBSIDE.

The protocol is as follows:
When you arrive to your appointment CALL the office from your car to let us know you have arrived. A staff member will get all pertinent information over the phone and then come to your car to retrieve your pet. Your pet will be safely brought inside and examined by the doctor while you remain in the car. We ask that if you have a cat that it is in a secure carrier that can be placed safely on the ground outside your vehicle. If you have a dog we will use one of our secure slip leads to bring it inside the hospital. We can assure you that your pet will be treated gently and with the same care as if it were our own while inside our hospital. The doctor will then call you to discuss any findings and treatments needed or come outside and speak with you from a distance of 6 feet. Once treated, your pet will be brought back out to the car and you will be asked to pay over the phone.

If you need to pick up food or a medication please call ahead and we will take payment over the phone and then leave your medication in the tin on our “medicine rock” or bring your food out to your car.

We will be increasing the availability of CURBSIDE TECHNICIAN APPOINTMENTS for routine vaccinations. If your pet has had a full examination by one of our doctors in the past 6 months you can make an appointment for this service. Intake will take place at our REHAB LOCATION NEXT DOOR. The intake and payment procedure will be the same as above.

Please be patient with us during this difficult time as phone lines may be busy and we may be a bit slower to process requests than usual. We are doing our very best to stay safe so we can keep your pets and our community healthy. We are honored to be able remain open and serve the animals and people of this great community.
