New Clients & Patients

Looking for a vet? South Davis Veterinary Center is welcoming new patients! You can now book your pet’s appointment online! Due to an increasing number of no-shows, a deposit is required in order to schedule a new client/patient appointment. This deposit goes towards the cost of the physical exam. The deposit can be refunded if you cancel your appointment with 24 hours notice. However, the deposit is non-refundable for same day appointments or if you miss the appointment.
Accepted Forms of Payment
We take all major credit cards, debit, cash and Care Credit. Checks are accepted from established clients. Payment is expected in full at the time of service. Online payments via our practice software is available and we can send a request to either your email or cell phone on file.
