Hours
We open at 9AM Monday through Saturday, and close from 12-1PM for lunch on weekdays. We are open until 4PM Monday-Wednesday-Friday; until 6PM on Tuesday-Thursday; and until 1PM on Saturday. Patients are seen by appointment.
Solo Practice
This is a "solo" practice, which means I am the only Veterinarian at this clinic. This may be inconvenient for you at times. Unfortunately, I can't always be available. I get sick, visit family, attend weddings and funerals --- just like everyone else --- and, I am required to attend Continuing Education classes each year to keep my License current. Although we will try very hard to work-in unexpected patients, calling ahead for a scheduled appointment time will provide you with the most satisfactory visit, and save you a trip if I must be unavailable.
Answering Machines
I know, everyone hates answering machines, but what else can we do? I have an answering machine at the clinic, and another one at home. If you get the answering machine at the clinic, please leave a message there first, then try me at home. Usually I am in town, and in-and-out of the clinic, until late in the evening. Your best chance of catching me soonest is with a message at the clinic first --- then leave a message on my home phone. I will return your call as soon as I am able to assist you. Please, if your pet is seriously ill or injured and needs emergency care, do not wait if I am unavailable when you call. There are many other capable Veterinarians in Bowie and surrounding areas that would be glad to help you in an emergency situation.
