Pharmacy Services

• By law, we are required to have a current patient-client-doctor relationship in order to approve and/or prescribe prescription medication. This means that your pet has to have been seen by Dr. McKisson within the calendar year to obtain prescription medication.

• Most flea and tick preventions are prescription medications

• All heartworm preventions are prescription medications

• Furthermore, some medications require annual, bi-annual, or monthly blood work to make sure that we are using the correct dosage and that we are protecting the affected organs.

• We have an in-house pharmacy to fill most medication needs for your pet, but we also encourage you to look at trusted online pet pharmacies if that will save you time and money.

• We can call in prescriptions to your preferred pharmacy or provide a physical prescription for you to bring there yourself.

• If you choose an online pet pharmacy, please make sure it is a trusted one. Once verified, you just need to input your information, your pet’s information, and our office information in order for the prescription to be sent to us for approval.
