At American Canyon Veterinary Hospital we would love to be able to help every pet in need. Unfortunately in order to practice quality medicine to our standards, and give you and your pets the undivided attention and love that we always have, that is not possible. In the event that an appointment is missed, it takes up a space which could be filled with a patient that has been on our waiting list. While we know that times are hard right now, and we will try to accommodate you as best as we can, we will be enforcing a cancellation and missed appointment policy.
We hope you understand as this is simply to make sure we are available for as many pets in need as possible. We are working hard everyday to find new ways and resources to expand our availability for our community. Thank you for your patience and understanding during these times as we work our way back to “normal”.
