- If you’re visiting at peak times or on holidays, expect triage-based queues and updates; bring patience and make use of waiting-room amenities.
- For cats, request the separate feline waiting area with hidey shelves to reduce stress.
- If a transfer or referral is needed, expect smooth coordination with partner locations—bring any prior records to speed things up.
