Cost Estimates
An itemized cost estimate will be provided upon request prior to providing any services. We are happy to discuss any questions regarding the estimate, including the reasons for certain recommended diagnostic tests or treatments. Please note that estimates reflect costs at the time that the estimate is requested and average quantities of items that vary between patients, such as sedation doses and number of x-rays needed.
Payment
Payment is due in full at the time of services. We will provide you with an itemized invoice prior to processing payment. We accept cash, checks, credit/debit cards, Venmo, Zelle, or Apple Pay.

A copy of your paid invoice will be sent to you from our practice management software (DaySmart Vet). Please allow 3-5 business days following your appointment for transfer of records to you.
Medical Records
We use a digital medical records system that allows real-time access to view and update each horse’s records. We electronically send the records from each appointment on request. Please allow 3-5 business days following the appointment for transfer of records. Digital radiographs (x-ray images) may also be sent via email. Should you require referral to another veterinary practice, we will send a copy of your horse’s records and images to that practice after placing the referral.
Follow-Up Care
At the end of your horse’s appointment, verbal and written instructions will be provided on at-home care and monitoring, including: medication instructions, potential side effects, which outcomes are normal/expected versus abnormal, and reasons to seek follow-up veterinary care. A plan for follow-up care and communication will be discussed and scheduled based on the needs of each horse. It is the responsibility of each client to adhere to the at-home care instructions and seek follow-up care if concerns arise. No question is too small to ask. Please contact us promptly with any questions or issues and we will do our best to help you!
Social Media
We value the use of digital technology and social media to document your horse’s progress, to share your horse’s successes and to educate others on best veterinary medical practices. Please consult with Dr. Khatibzadeh prior to photographing or filming any medical procedure, and/or sharing videos or pictures on social media platforms. Likewise, Dr. Khatibzadeh will obtain documented permission from each client prior to photographing or filming any medical procedure and/or sharing content to the practice website or social media pages.
