NEW NORMAL FOR SUMMER OF 2021- WE CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU!

Dear Valued Clients,
We are excited to announce Largo Veterinary Hospital will begin allowing clients back into the hospital on Monday July 5th, 2021 for Doctor Appointments only. We will continue to follow CDC guidelines in order to protect our clients, patients, and staff. Masks/facial coverings MUST be worn at all times while in building and please maintain the recommended 6 feet social distancing. We will be disinfecting each exam room between clients (this may take a few extra minutes). Hand sanitizer will be available for your use, located in each exam room. Please continue to call the hospital at 727-584-8370 upon arrival as our door will continue to remain locked during business hours. The receptionist will then ask if you have any symptoms of COVID: fever, cough, and/or shortness of breath and if you have been exposed to anyone that may have COVID symptoms as well as gather your information (phone number, make/color of your vehicle). At this time we are only allowing 2 clients in the hospital with the pet and please remain in the exam room for the duration of the appointment. We thank you for your continued patience and we look forward to seeing everyone again!
