3/15/2020: Letter from Dr. Ann Cirillo
Dear Pet Parents,
We want to assure you that we are taking every precaution with the recent coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19), and will continue to do so for as long as necessary.
We love your pets and will continue to provide the exceptional care they need and deserve. Every day we routinely use sterilization solutions effective in killing coronavirus as well as other pathogens to keep our areas clean and sanitary. We will continue to do this as well as making sure common areas such as door knobs, chairs, keyboards, and other frequently “touched” areas are routinely sanitized.
There is no evidence at this time that companion animals or pets can be infected by COVID-19. We will stay up to date through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the World Health Organization, the American Veterinary Medical Association and other public health agencies in order to protect you and your families while remaining open to take care of your pets. In-clinic appointments are still being scheduled and seen as usual however we have implemented a few additional precautions for the safety of our pet parents and their families:
