Sign up on this site by entering your information on our Appointments page. By registering in anticipation of a house call visit, you are entered into our system. You and your pet(s) will be easily located, expediting service. Please verify that all of the information is correct before submitting.

Please provide in the notes section the name of the veterinarian and hospital where your pet was last seen, so that we may request copies of medical records and test results, in order to aid Dr. Fausel in managing the medical care of your pet.  Alternatively, you can contact your previous veterinary hospital and request that they either fax (484-818-7087) or email (doc@scottfausel.com) copies of medical records to us.

Should you anticipate that your pet might need sedation to facilitate examination, please do not feed 8-12 hours prior to the visit.  Water is fine.   Additionally, please mention this in the notes section of the form.

Prior to the appointment, try not to act any different than usual. Cats and some dogs may sense your anxiety and become anxious as well.

We give a 30 minute window in which to arrive for the appointment, traffic permitting.

Secure the house by closing windows and external doors. Close doors to bedrooms to prevent your cat from hiding under a bed. Lock down the cat door. Cats are best examined and treated in a bathroom either on the counter or towel-lined sink. Remove items on the counter and adjacent area especially breakable items. Close the shower door and put the toilet seat down. It would be best to put the cat in the bathroom just prior to the scheduled appointment window of time. Put other pets in another room just prior the the visit.  Some cats may require sedation in order to reduce their anxiety and allow examination. Cats that have previously exhibited aggression should have food withheld for 8-12 hours prior to the visit in anticipation of the need for sedation (water is fine).

Most dogs can be examined and treated in an open area unless frightened or protective of you. These dogs are best examined in a bathroom as well. Muzzles may be needed to allow safe examination. These will not hurt or suffocate the animal. Some dogs may require sedation in order to reduce their anxiety and allow examination. Pets that have previously exhibited aggression should have food withheld for 8-12 hours prior to the visit in anticipation of the need for sedation (water is fine).  Please note that Dr. Fausel reserves the right to decline to take on as patients pets whose aggression prevents safe examination, even with sedation..
