Referral Communication
Thank you for choosing LIVS. We accept referrals 24-hours a day, 365 days a year. Patients will only be treated for the condition which they are referred. Should other issues arise, you will be notified so that an appropriate treatment plan may be arranged. Routine procedures and general health care are services best performed by you and your staff, therefore these services are not performed at LIVS. We encourage all clients to return to their primary care veterinarian for follow-up care and to maintain an active relationship with the practice.

Fee Policy
An itemized treatment plan with an estimate of costs for emergency or specialty care is provided to owners prior to patients being admitted to the hospital. Payment is due at time of service. Cash, MasterCard, Visa, Discover, and American Express are acceptable forms of payment as well as CareCredit. Unfortunately, checks are no longer accepted.

CareCredit
We accept the CareCredit pet, health and wellness credit card. With everyday promotional financing for purchases of $200 or more, you can pay over time with convenient monthly payments.*
