     These are a few examples where catalogs are not always cheaper.  Admittedly, there are products in the catalogs that are less expensive.  The difference is the service you receive.  We provide a knowledgeable, experienced staff to answer all your questions whether in an emergency or for routine health care.

     We are more than happy to ship your medications or preventatives for the cost of postage.  Most catalogs require a minimum order to receive free shipping.

     New Prescription Policy - We will refill prescriptions but they must be picked up at the clinic.  We will no longer accept fax requests for prescriptions due to the increased cost of materials, time involved and problems with multiple faxes received.
