Pet Insurance
The past decade has seen remarkable advances in veterinary medicine. Coupled with this has been the growing acknowledgment of how important and valued pets are; many consider their pets as important family members. Because these new advances in animal health care can be expensive, many pet owners are now purchasing pet insurance. The staff of Carolinas Veterinary Care Clinic recommends that every pet owner consider pet insurance. If you already have pet insurance, we’ll provide you with copies of your pet’s medical records for submission to your insurance company for re-reimbursement. Please note that our policy of payment due when services are rendered still applies to clients with pet insurance.
