Initial Fish Health “Well” Visit

Our licensed Veterinarian and Fish Health team specialize in all things aquatic: general well being, diseases, treatments, surgery, pond ecosystems, and more. Upon arrival, we will meticulously assess the pond, complete a thorough testing of water parameters and an in-depth examination of the ecosystem and filtration.

During the initial assessment, we will conduct a distance examination of the fish to identify any visible health concerns. If necessary, this may be followed by a more detailed examination, involving the careful capture of fish for closer scrutiny. Our priority is to ensure a precise evaluation of their overall health.

By initiating the "Veterinarian-Client-Patient Relationship" (VCPR) during a routine check-up, in the event that your fish faces illness, we can promptly administer treatment without the need for a veterinarian to make an on-site visit. This proves crucial, especially in time-sensitive situations. This will also establish a standard reference point to gauge the health status of your fish.

We strongly advise taking proactive steps for your fish's well-being by scheduling a wellness visit today.

What you need to know about an initial well visit:

• The price starts at $575. If additional services are performed, there will be additional charges.
• This visit typically lasts 45-60 minutes.
• Our veterinarian will be accompanied by a Fish Health Technician.
• The “Veterinarian-client-patient relationship” (VCPR) will be established, which allows us to complete follow up treatments without a veterinarian being present.
