1. Payment is expected when services are rendered. In order to focus on our patients’ needs and customer service, and to minimize costs to you, we do not bill.
  2. We accept debit cards, credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express), checks, and cash. All cards must be signed by the owner of the card.
  3. OTTO Payment Plan: We offer flexible payment options through OTTO to help make veterinary care more accessible. OTTO allows you to split your payments into manageable installments so your pet can receive the care they need without delay. Visit our OTTO payment plan page to learn more and apply.
  4. When unexpected illness or injury strikes, unexpected expenses happen. Always Helpful Veterinary Services understands this and is able to make some special arrangements through the CareCredit program.
