Get In Touch - Sauk Point Veterinary Clinic

Our employees work hard to ensure that your pet receives the best health care available and to ensure your wants and needs as a client are met as well. With that in mind, we expect you to treat all of our staff with courtesy and respect. Rude or abusive behavior towards our staff will not be tolerated.

Our staff works diligently to ensure that your needs are met in a timely fashion. Each and every pet is individually important to us and we have a great number of pets to provide care for. As a result, our time as veterinary professionals is often limited and valuable. We kindly request that when you make appointments with us, you arrive on time. Clients that arrive 10 minutes late or later may be asked to reschedule or drop their pet off with us as a Day Admit exam. When appointments arrive late, we don’t have adequate time to provide the care for your pet expected of us and it causes other appointments to then run late, reducing their quality of care as well.

We understand that life happens and there are sometimes extenuating circumstances outside of your control, but we do ask that if you are unable to make it to your appointment, you let us know by phone call or email at least 24 hours in advance. Clients that cancel with less than 24 hour notice or fail to show up for their appointments more than once per calendar year will be asked to keep a credit card on file to be charged for any future missed appointments or short-notice cancellations. The card on file will only be charged the exam fee for missed or cancelled appointments. These measures will not be implemented without prior discussion or warning.

By Wisconsin law (Statute 89.069(1)(c)), a veterinary-client-patient-relationship must be established in order to prescribe medications, diagnose, and treat patients. In order to maintain a VCPR, a pet’s annual exam must stay up to date. Without a legally active VCPR, we are unable to provide medical advice or refill prescriptions (such as prescription food or preventatives). If your pet needs a refill for any long-term medications but their annual exam has expired, we can get their annual scheduled and offer a refill that will last until the scheduled annual exam.

Due to limited availability, we are often scheduling well in advance for any new client visits. Please plan for a two week or greater delay when initially calling to schedule with us as new clients and prepare accordingly. If you know when you will be bringing a new pet home, please call in advance of their adoption to ensure we can see your new companion promptly. Please fill out our New Client Form prior to the appointment so your file is ready to go prior to the exam. Your records can be obtained from your previous veterinarian, sent to customerservice@saukpointvet.com, or you can bring them along to your appointment. We will call you a couple of days before your appointment to ensure it still works for you. Please return our call to confirm your appointment if we’re not able to reach you directly. If you do not get in touch with us to confirm your appointment at least 24 hours before your appointment time, you will be taken off the schedule to make room for another pet in need.

For the safety of your pet and the pets of others, we request that all cats and other small animals arrive securely contained in a sturdy carrier and all dogs arrive securely leashed. Collars and harnesses must be well-fitted to avoid escape into the lobby or parking lot and retractable leashes must remain locked while inside the clinic.

You are entitled to a complete copy of your pet’s medical history at any time, however records requests or transfers are only authorized by individuals listed on the pet’s account. Should you need to transfer your pet’s care to another clinic, we can transfer records directly to your clinic of choice to ensure a seamless transition of care for your pet.
