FIELD NOTE — NEW CLIENTS

Your first visit — what to bring, what to expect

When you bring your animal to Mountain River Vet, you get high-quality care and genuine service — every visit, every patient. We built this practice around one commitment: a veterinary team dedicated to exceptional client service and to your animal’s health. That means world-class care in a state-of-the-art facility, right here in Rigby. Ready to book your first visit? Call us at (208) 745-5003.

Your pet’s annual check-up covers everything head to tail — and includes a free dental exam at no extra charge. Even the most patient animal may need a professional cleaning; we will let you know if that is the case and walk you through the options together.

Before your visit, jot down any changes you have noticed: eating habits, energy level, unusual behavior, or anything that looks or feels different. Bringing those notes helps us catch things early and give your animal the most thorough exam possible.

Our veterinarians are calm, compassionate, and happy to explain every step — no rushed visits, no jargon left unexplained. We work hard to make sure both you and your animal feel comfortable the moment you walk through the door. Not sure what to expect? Call us first: (208) 745-5003.

Our facility is equipped for procedures requiring anesthesia, including orthopedic surgeries and many other services. If your animal carries any anesthesia risk, we recommend precautionary blood work and radiographs first — so you know exactly what to expect before we begin.
