Our team of veterinarians in Bristol wants your pet to be healthy and stay healthy. We also understand that making our pets’ lives better comes with costs.

We routinely accept payment in the form of cash, check, debit card, CareCredit, MasterCard, Visa, Discover, Wells Fargo, and American Express.

Payment is expected at the time of service. For some treatments or hospitalized care, a deposit may be required. Healthcare requiring comprehensive in-hospital care will require a 50% deposit to begin your pet’s treatment.

Chippens Hill Veterinary Hospital charges $25 for returned checks in addition to the original balance. A fee of $80.00 may be charged for clients who miss or cancel more than three appointments in a calendar year without 24 hours’ notice.

We also provide preventive care plans for pets through our Paws4Wellness program. Learn more about our available plans here.
