Clinic Hours

Day Hours
Monday–Friday 7:30 AM – 5:30 PM
Saturday Closed
Sunday Closed

Because the clinic is closed on weekends, a pet that needs care on Saturday or Sunday cannot be seen during those days. Plan routine visits and medication refills within the weekday window.

How to Book an Appointment

  1. Choose your channel. Call (816) 628-4035 during open hours, or select Book Appointment on the website.
  2. State what your pet needs. The clinic lists wellness and prevention, testing and diagnostics, advanced care, surgical procedures, and urgent care among its services, so naming the reason helps route the visit correctly.
  3. Confirm the time. If you book online, follow up by phone if you have not received confirmation, since the site does not describe an automatic confirmation process.
  4. Prepare for a first visit. The site has a "Your First Visit" page and a "Patient Forms" page; completing forms ahead of time reduces check-in time.

For food and medications, use the Order Food & Meds link rather than calling, unless you need to confirm a prescription first.

What to Know Before You Call

  • Accreditation: The clinic states it is accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) and undergoes regular evaluations covering surgery, exam facilities, patient care, cleanliness, client service, emergency services, diagnostic imaging, and anesthesiology. The site notes that only 15% of animal hospitals in the United States and Canada hold this accreditation.
  • Costs: A client review on the site describes being given two care directions with the costs of each explained before deciding. The site itself does not publish a price list, so ask for an estimate when you book.
  • Urgent care: Urgent care is listed as a service, but the site does not state after-hours or weekend emergency arrangements. If your pet needs help outside 7:30 AM–5:30 PM on a weekday, call the clinic to ask how urgent cases are handled.

Common Snags

  • Calling on a weekend. Both Saturday and Sunday are closed; wait for Monday or contact an emergency provider if the situation cannot wait.
  • Assuming online booking is instant. The site presents booking as an option but does not describe response times, so a phone call is the safer route for same-day needs.
  • Skipping forms. New clients who arrive without completing patient forms should expect extra time at check-in.
