A message from our managing DVMs at Tahoma Vet ❤️

We are excited to inform you about the implementation of VetTriage, a new after-hours screening and telemedicine service, to better manage the volume of calls we receive outside of our regular office hours.

While we have always strived to be available for our clients, we are not a dedicated emergency service. By offering this after-hours service, we aim to continue supporting our community while also managing the workload more effectively.

Our team works full days and takes turns covering one evening each week, as well as every weekend, to serve our clients and assist with the overflow from other emergency services. VetTriage is designed to address basic questions and triage emergencies, filtering out minor inquiries that do not require immediate attention. This helps reduce the strain on our team and prevent burnout, allowing us to remain available for significant emergencies.

As our client base grows, so does our workload, making burnout a genuine concern. The addition of VetTriage will alleviate these issues while ensuring our clients receive the level of service and attention they need.

Please be assured that we are not going anywhere. This service is simply a measure to balance our workload while maintaining excellent client care.

Excited to continue to serve the community that we love, but maybe get some sleep,

Hello Clients of Tahoma Veterinary Hospital! With the 4th of July right around the corner - we encourage you to start calling and requesting refills for any anti-anxiety medications your pets require to help make the holiday go a little smoother. Your pet must be up to date on their annual examination in order for us to prescribe these medications.

Additionally, we require 48-72 hours for refill requests to be processed and filled.

Thank you and we look forward to helping you and your critters have a safe and happy Independence Day!

A Good Samaritan came by to check for a microchip for a super cute female tan pit/husky mix! Found in Spanaway. One ear stands up perfectly and the other has curl at the top! Blue eyes and a great disposition, if you think this is your little girl please feel free to message us on Facebook only as we are closed for normal business hours now. Thank you!

This morning we found a deceased female German Shepherd mix by our clinic, there is no microchip, she is a lighter tan colored GSD with no distinctive markings, a bushy tail maybe under 5 years old possibly spayed due to no mammary development. If you think this was your poor baby give us a call. We have a paw print ready for you 💔

Hello clients of TVH! Yesterday we suffered an internet outage that also took down our phone system. Additionally, we are rotating staff due to seasonal illnesses. At this time, we are working as diligently as possible to catch up on the back log of voicemails; we received many “Urgent”’type voicemails that we are making a priority to call those back first. Refills will take a bit longer but we will through those second, and work on all other return calls as we are able to do so. We encourage you to call back if you called and left a non-urgent voicemail for routine services, or pricing estimates. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience and circumstances beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we work to get caught up!! Thank you!
