What to Expect

We will gather a complete history, get to know you and your expectations, as well as address any current medical concerns.

  • Please arrive 15-20 minutes before your scheduled appointment for the completion of paperwork.

    • Call or email your previous vet and ask them to send the records directly to us. This is a courtesy most vets will observe. Records can be sent to us:
    • Via email to hoffman@hoffmanah.com
    • Via fax (410) 757-6161

Client callbacks are done 24 to 72 hours after all visits, whether routine or surgical. A team member contacts each client to follow-up on the patient’s health and well-being and to answer subsequent questions that emerged since the appointment.
