Updated No-Show Policy:

Your appointment time is reserved with the doctor. Failure to keep this appointment limits our ability to care for other pets in need.  We do not charge a cancellation fee. However, if you fail to keep a reserved appointment time and do not call in advance, you will be required to pre-pay the exam fee as a deposit for future appointments. This deposit will be applied to the cost of your visit if the appointment is kept. If the appointment is not cancelled in a timely manner, the deposit will be forfeited, and you will be required to pay another deposit in order to schedule again.

 

 

At Upshur Veterinary Hospital, we are committed to providing quality care at every stage of your pet's life. From routine preventive care to early detection and treatment of a wide range of conditions and diseases, we have the expertise to provide the care your pet needs at every stage of life.
