Clinic Update 6/24/25

To our valued clients at Putnam Veterinary Clinic, we hope this message finds you well. 

We would like to address our current scheduling challenges, as we understand that securing an appointment has become increasingly difficult. We are actively seeking to hire an additional veterinarian and support staff to alleviate this situation. Currently, our appointments are booked through mid to late August, so we encourage you to contact us promptly when you receive your pet's reminders. Each day, we reserve 2-3 "same day appointments" for urgent cases, but once these slots are filled, we unfortunately cannot accommodate further fit ins. 

Due to the merger, there may be instances where we need to refer you to one of the excellent urgent care facilities nearby or, in critical situations, to an emergency hospital. While we strive to keep all care within our clinic, our priority remains the well-being of your pet, and we will not compromise on patient care quality. We are also prepared to transfer medical records if necessary. 

We are also excited to share that we are undergoing construction to expand our facility, which will include a new surgical suite and a fourth exam room.

We kindly ask for your patience and respect towards our reception and support staff, who are working diligently under challenging circumstances. Any disrespectful behavior may result in an immediate transfer of your pet's records. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this time. Thank you, Putnam Veterinary Clinic.
