FAQ
How long does it take to get to Coastal Creek Animal Hospital from Ashley Retreat?
Most Ashley Retreat residents can reach our animal hospital in about 10-15 minutes by car. We’re conveniently located at 1203 Old Trolley Road in Summerville, making us an easy drive for routine check-ups or more urgent care needs for your pets.
Do you see new patients from Ashley Retreat?
Absolutely! We’re always welcoming new Ashley Retreat pets and their families to our practice. We currently offer a free first exam for new patients as part of our welcome. This gives you a chance to meet Dr. Mack and our team while getting your pet established with our care.
What should I do if my Ashley Retreat pet gets sick on a weekend?
We’re open Saturday mornings from 8:00am to 1:00pm for weekend appointments. If your pet needs attention during times we’re closed, please call our main number for guidance. For true emergencies outside our hours, we can recommend the nearest after-hours emergency vet facility serving the Ashley Retreat area.
How often should my Ashley Retreat pet have a check-up?
We recommend yearly wellness exams for healthy adult pets from Ashley Retreat. Puppies and kittens need more frequent visits for vaccinations and development checks, while senior pets (generally over 7 years old) benefit from twice-yearly exams to catch age-related issues early. Your pet’s specific health conditions might require a customized schedule that Dr. Mack will recommend.
Do you provide advice on choosing the right pet for Ashley Retreat families?
Yes! Dr. Mack is happy to discuss different breeds and pet types to help Ashley Retreat families choose a pet that matches their lifestyle. Before adding a new pet to your family, we can provide information about size, exercise needs, grooming requirements, and potential health considerations for various breeds or species.
Are there any specific environmental hazards Ashley Retreat pet owners should watch for?
Ashley Retreat pets face several environmental challenges in our region. During warm months, heat exhaustion is a concern, especially for brachycephalic (flat-faced) breeds. Local wildlife like snakes can pose risks during outdoor activities. Year-round mosquitoes increase heartworm disease risk, and ticks carrying diseases are common in wooded areas. We can help you develop strategies to protect your pet from these environmental hazards.
What payment options are available for Ashley Retreat pet owners?
We accept multiple payment methods for our Ashley Retreat clients, including major credit cards, debit cards, cash, and CareCredit healthcare financing. We’re happy to provide estimates before procedures so you can plan accordingly. For specific pricing questions about vaccinations, spay/neuter services, or other treatments, please call our office directly.
