Welcome To Stonington Veterinary Hospital

August 5, 2020

To all our loyal clients at Stonington Veterinary Hospital,

We’d like to provide you with a quick update on our current operations as we continue to function as efficiently and safely as possible during these difficult times. First, a huge thank you to all our clients for being so understanding and patient over these past several months. We truly appreciate it!


We are going to remain curbside for an undetermined amount of time. We have several reasons behind this decision. Most important reason is safety. We are doing our best to keep our staff, clients and community safe. Social distancing with the clients, wearing masks, and constant cleaning around the hospital have shown us that it is an effective method of operation for this hospital and therefore we shall continue to practice this way for some time. Another important reason is efficiency. We are able to see more appointments on a daily basis this way which allows us to get your sick pet seen quicker. Once we allow people back into the building a lot more time has to be dedicated to additional cleaning after every appointment, thus fewer appointments would be able to be scheduled each day in order to allow for this cleaning. An efficient daily schedule allows us to get your pets seen sooner when they are sick or having a medical issue.


A couple of important reminders we ask of our clients when they arrive…please wear your mask when speaking to a staff member. Please have your dogs on a leash, take them out of the car and hand the leash to the technician. Please have your cats in a carrier. During the summer the pavement tends to get very hot, please don’t leave the dog standing on it for any length of time.


Once again we truly appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding during these trying times. Thank you for allowing us to continue to care for your beloved family members.

Sincerely,
The Staff at SVH
