There is a $65 consultation fee for the service, so please have a credit card ready. This fee also covers any follow up calls that the veterinarian may make to sucessfully treat your pet.

For patients requiring close monitoring and attention, Veazie Veterinary Clinic has an intesive care unit. Critical care patients are placed in kennels that are in full view of our treatment area so they are under constant supervision. We have three built in kennels, 2 medium sized and 1 large, as well as a portable small incubator/oxygen tank for cats and smaller dogs.

A common set up for patients in the ICU includes a warm water heating pad, and blankets to make the kennel as comfortable as possible. In cases where fluids are being given there is an infusion pump to deliver them at a set rate. Other equipment or medical care is available as needed. The ICU can be used for a variety of cases from an emergency that needs close observation to a patient who is recovering from anesthesia that requires special care.

We provide these services to help our clients in a very difficult time. If you ever need to talk we are happy to listen. We all understand the pain that comes with saying good bye. Here at Veazie Veterinary Clinic we strive to support owners with compassion and make your expirence as trouble free as possible. For more advice about how to handle grief...

We also arrange for crematory services. We can provide private cremations if requested. If private cremation is desired, pets are usually back with us in about 1 week.
