St. Francis of Assisi Veterinary Medical Center
Our Mission Statement
We look to the example of the Patron Saint of animals for the direction of our mission,
and thus our goal, to provide our patients and their owners the highest level of care
and empathy possible.  We intend to take the leadership role in the delivery of
Veterinary Medicine and Surgery in our community by offering the highest level of
service and education available.
Medical Appointments
8:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.  Monday - Friday
8:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.  Saturday
We work primarily by appointments to allow ample time for all patients,
however we will "work in" any pet requiring medical attention.  Pets, like
humans, do not time their illnesses by the appointment book and emergencies
may require immediate attention leading to occasional appointment delays.  We
make a sincere effort to see each patient on time and a phone call is
appreciated if an appointment needs to be rescheduled or cancelled.
Early Drop offs
We offer early morning drop off for your pets Monday through Friday at 7:00
a.m..  We ask that you call or visit prior to your desired drop off date so we can
be ready to provide the
veterinary health services you need.
Unless your pet is boarding, all animals must be picked up by 6:00 p.m. Monday
through Friday and by 1:00 p.m. on Saturday.

Emergency services are always available at St. Francis during our normal
business hours.

We offer boarding for both Dogs and Cats by reservation only.

For the safety of all pets visiting or staying in our facility, we require that all immunizations

that they are current.  Any pet under our care, including boarders, can only be admitted or
released during our normal business hours when St. Francis staff are available.


While you are always welcomed to visit your pet that may be under our care or in our
boarding facility, we ask that you always check with our staff before you enter the
treatment or kennel areas to insure the safety and well being of all our visitors.
