We know how hectic things can be sometimes—which is why River Park Animal Clinic offers drop-off appointments. If you don’t have enough time to spend in the room for an entire appointment or would like to do grocery shopping at HEB while we examine your pet, we offer drop-offs so you can leave your pet here and pick them up later.
If multiple animals are dropped off, the doctor will triage to determine critical patients, and services will be performed between surgeries or appointments. We will call you with updates and when services are completed, but you can expect to pick up your pet late in the afternoon or evening. It’s essential that we have a good contact number for you at the time of drop-off, as the doctor may need to speak with you about their findings or recommendations.
When you drop off your pet, a drop-off form should be filled out with as much information as possible. An estimate will be provided, and a deposit of the low end of the estimate is required at drop-off time. If you are a new client, please also fill out the New Client form.
Your pet will be placed in a size-appropriate kennel with a blanket or towel, water, and a litter box for cats (unless otherwise directed by the doctor). All personal items will be labeled or placed in a bag just for them. A name band will be placed on all pets, and a cage card with their name, the reason for the visit, and any relevant alerts will be placed on the kennel.
A complete exam and any requested services will be performed, and any additional procedures will be authorized by you before they are performed. Once all services, procedures, and charts are completed, we will set up a discharge appointment to discuss the exam and give any instructions.
Please note that drop-off appointments may not be appropriate for every situation and are most appropriate for routine or minor pet health needs.
