Welcome to Lincolnshire Animal Hospital Proactive and Compassionate Veterinary Care

A Note About COVID-19

Lincolnshire Animal Hospital recognizes the importance of continuing to serve you reliably, safely, and compliantly during this Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. We assure you that since the onset, we’ve taken the proper measures to continue to provide you and your pets with the highest quality of care.

If you will be bringing your pet in for a visit, please know that the safety and health of our clients and staff is paramount to us. As such, we are implementing a closed reception area protocol. We are asking all of our clients to please call us once you've reached the parking lot and to remain in your vehicles. Our staff will come out to retrieve your pets and will bring them in to our practice to be seen. All treatment advice, billing, and consultation will be done via phone once your pet has been seen. We appreciate your cooperation.

Lincolnshire Animal Hospital is closely following and implementing the Center for Disease Control (CDC) protocol for COVID-19.

We are providing guidance and ongoing communication to all team members on:

- Increasing the frequency and extent of our cleaning practices, such as additional wiping down of all hard surfaces including the front desk, examination rooms, and offices.

- Implementing heightened sanitation and hand-washing procedures for all staff.
Operating at safe distances.

- Proper protocol for coughing and sneezing.

- Staff who are ill will remain at home. At this time, no staff has been self quarantined.

If you are not feeling well and/or are presenting possible symptoms of COVID-19 but need to seek treatment for your pet, please contact our front desk to set up an appointment. We will work with you to make special accommodations to ensure the well-being of your pet.

This includes if you have:

- Fever
- Persistent cough
- Shortness of breath
- Sore throat
- Traveled outside the country in the past few weeks

We will work diligently to continue to provide you and your pets with the standard of care you expect at Lincolnshire Animal Hospital. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our office and speak with a staff member today.
