First-Time Clients

We can't wait to meet you and your pet; we do anything we can to ensure you and your pet are

COMFORTABLE.

Since pets age at a much quicker rate than humans, these visits will become increasingly important in the early detection of any changes in their health. Save time and fill out your paperwork online.

Veterinary hospitals are not all the same. For your pet, the right care, provided in a warm, welcoming environment by a compassionate team, can make all the difference.

It is our mission to provide the highest-quality pet health and wellness services so you and your pet can live the longest, healthiest and happiest life together – and should your pet experience an illness or injury, we’re here for you with the most advanced diagnostic technology and the safest surgical protocols.

APPOINTMENT INFORMATION

At Derry Animal Hospital, we strive to always keep your pet healthy and up-to-date. Pet wellness exams are comprehensive and performed by our veterinarians. Your veterinarian will check for the following and discuss any and all of your concerns regarding your pet’s health:

Clear eyes, ears and nose
Heart and respiration
Abdomen palpation
Proper bite placement
Any signs of infection or parasites
Proper growth and development
Presence of hernia
Initial vaccinations and a proper vaccination schedule tailored to your pet

To ensure that our staff has time to answer all your questions, we’d like to complete any needed paperwork before your scheduled appointment time. Thus, please arrive 10 minutes early so that we can review your paperwork. To ensure continuity of your care, please bring any previous documentation with you. See you soon!

PET ARRIVALS

For the safety of all animals in our care, we require that all vaccinations be up to date. Even though we make every effort to make our patients feel comfortable during visits, they may be a little uneasy about new people, new surroundings and other pets. This is one of the reasons we ask you to restrain your pet by placing them on a leash or in pet carriers before entering the waiting room.
