What to Expect

Call 570-538-5538 to schedule an appointment, and we will find a time that is convenient for you.  We are open 7 am to 7 pm Monday though Friday for your convenience.

Please fax (570-538-5544) or email (info@stah-pa.com) any available medical history you have for your pet before your appointment. If you do not have it available, let us know ahead of time and we can call your previous veterinarian and obtain it for you.

Please call us from the parking lot once you arrive.  A technician will ask you some questions over the phone, and then you will be escorted into an examination room.  We found that pets are less stressed if they are not waiting in a busy waiting room around other animals. We do our best to minimize any wait time, but occasionally an emergency appointment or sick animal will delay our regularly scheduled appointments.

Next, the veterinarian will enter and ask any additional questions and perform a thorough head-to-tail physical on your pet.  We do our best to utilize low-stress/fear-free techniques to minimize the stress of your pet’s visit.

The veterinarian will thoroughly explain all recommendations, options, and treatment plans, and then perform any treatments or testing.  You will then have an opportunity to ask any additional questions.  If additional testing is done, results are usually given during the appointment or the veterinarian will call with the results.
