Questions about the Clinic / Appointments / Directions? 

I am once again helping Dr. Meier and Dr. Cocchiaro to setup an HCM screening for breeders. Dr. Meier and Dr. Cocchiaro are both certified cardiologist and have been gracious enough for several years to provide reasonable priced screenings for breeders to test their cats. Please contact me if you are interested in attending the clinic.

Contact Toni Meisberger: bangstm@verizon.net
DO NOT CONTACT ME THROUGH FACEBOOK - Emails only
DO NOT CALL the Doctor's Office
PLEASE NOTE!
Fractious animals will not be examined in order to protect the veterinary staff, owners and cats. 
If you suspect that your cat will not be handle-able without sedation, then do not bring them to this clinic.
Should your cat be deemed too hard to handle, the cat will not be examined. 
If you are unsure, leave the cat at home and schedule a regular appointment with your local cardiologist.
This is a clinic -- approximately 15 minutes is scheduled for each cat. 

Time is not scheduled to deal with hard to handle cats.
It is not fair to your cat, the veterinarian, the staff, and others attending the clinic. 

Payment is due at time of service.Cash or checks are accepted. If you have any questions or would like to set an appointment, please let me know which time slots work best for you. Also, give me a second choice time slot in case it fills before you respond. IF you are traveling with someone also let me know so I can schedule you close to one another.

If this is your first time screening, you may view this video to see what you cat can expect:
