Office Visits
Dr. Scutchfield is our sole doctor, and we are sometimes out of the building at a house call or holding a training meeting. To provide for a pleasant experience, office visits are by appointment. You may arrange your appointment by calling us at 734-682-5596. Please keep in mind that emergency cases will always receive top priority, followed by patients with previously scheduled appointments. A missed appointment is a missed opportunity for other patients. Please be considerate and call at least 24 hours ahead of time if you need to reschedule.
We ask that your cat be confined to a carrier to avoid any mishaps. Cats feel more secure and are safer when restricted to a carrier.
