Your Harriman Veterinarian

March 19, 2020

To our valued clients:

I wanted to reach out to you to speak about the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and how our practice is responding.
Veterinary hospitals have been classified as essential services, and we will remain open. Our team is committed to providing high quality care to the pets in our community.

We have accelerated our disinfection efforts within the clinic. Doorknobs, countertops, pens, credit card machines, and all work surfaces are being disinfected multiple times per day. As always, tables and instruments are disinfected between pets.

In an effort to limit person-to-person transfer, our staff has been instructed to monitor their health. Our staff has been instructed not to come to work if they are running a fever, not feeling well, or if they have been identified as a person recommended for isolation or self-quarantine. Our staff will make their best effort to keep good social distancing for everyone’s protection.

If you have had symptoms of fever or cough over the previous 14 days, we can still care for your pet. If this is the case, we ask that you remain in your vehicle in the parking lot. Call our office, and a staff member will come out to bring your pet inside for treatment.

The goal of Roane Veterinary Hospital during this time is to maintain the health of not only our community’s pets, but the greater community as a whole. We appreciate your understanding and support.

Thank you,

Dr. Cook, Dr. Bristol, and Staff of Roane Veterinary Hospital
