It's THAT time of year again; Happy Spring!
Lockwood
EIA Lab
Mark Anderson, VT., Director
We
offer same-day EIA "Coggins" testing for traveling horses
using the ELISA test.
Our Coggins test schedule:
ELISA Test batch schedule is 11:00 am and 4:00 pm on weekdays.
Results will be available at 12:00 pm and 5:00 pm respectfully.
Horses need an appointment (we often cannot take
walkins) and must be at the clinic for blood drawn at least 30
minutes before the next test batch is scheduled to run. If you
need results sooner than the next batch there will be a $20 rush
fee per horse. If you need test results on a Saturday a $35 tech
fee will be assessed along with the rush fees. Blood can be drawn
a day or so before scheduled test batches, so plan ahead, make
an appointment, and save money!

for your continued patronage with Lockwood Veterinary Services!
 Prescriptions:
Federal law requires a pet examination within 12 months to receive any
veterinary Rx medication. If your animal has not been seen by us within
the past year, for the current medical condition, we will not be able
to fill that prescription for that animal. And please understand, it
is impossible, (not to mention unethical) for any veterinarian to diagnose
changes or new ailments over the phone. Call ahead for a routine prescription
refill, but be ready to make an appointment for a condition that has
not been seen for over a year.
The
same laws also apply to internet prescriptions,
which we may prescribe with a SCRIPT FEE (to cover for the doctor and
staff's time in taking calls, faxes, checking records, filling out,
& faxing the script). Thank you.

| Grooming:
Jeanette Klein grooms Tuesdays through Fridays at Lockwood
Veterinary Clinic. She takes approximately 4 - 7 pets per day, Tues-Fri,
and is usually booked up in advance, so call for your appointment
ahead of time. Groom pets drop off from 8:00 - 9:00 am, and are
groomed (taking turns at bathing, drying, brushing & clipping)
throughout the day. Clients are called when their pet is ready to
go home in the afternoon, or they can make arrangements to simply
pick them up on the way home from work. |
| Boarding:
Unfortunately, we are unable to board pets, because our clinic is
not large enough. The nearest pet boarding facility is Brickyard
Boarding, in Lockwood: Kalyn Tyre, proprietor, 406-248-5140. |

Lockwood Veterinary Service has been serving the Lockwood
area in Yellowstone County, Montana for over 20 years. Now under the
ownership of Dr. Jody Anderson and her husband Mark, we hope to continue
to serve the community for many years to come. Mark & Jody bought
Dr Nancy Belk out for full ownership of Lockwood Veterinary Services
Jan 1, 2010, but Dr Nancy still practices here. (Just with less responsibility
and stress!) We are now pleased to welcome Dr Lisa Galvin to our staff.
Our practice: We are a small rural town & country
veterinary service, providing general care for most pets & livestock,
located in the Lockwood area in the eastern outskirts of Billings, Montana.
Our emergency service is available 24/7, as we do keep a veterniarian
on call after hours & weekends. We are a small, friendly, personalized
clinic, and we use compassionate, caring, common sense in our approach.
We are conservative and inform our clients of all treatment options,
and help them make the best decisions for their pets. We will do whatever
we can to help our patients live long & comfortable lives, and will
provide all treatments & options available according to our clients'
wishes, while helping them avoid unecessary excessive expenses. We would
be considered a Holistic veterinary clinic -- DVMs who also practice
alternative, complementary medicine, including acupuncture & gold
bead acupuncture, and chiropractic referrals.
Referrals: We are a general practice, and are not set
up for every highly specialized procedure, and may refer some complicated
cases or certain surgeries to trusted specialists.
Remember... Being able to afford routine as well as
the occasional unexpected veterinary care is part of every animal owner's
responsibility... We ask payment upon services rendered. We are unable
to extend credit at this time. Please be prepared to pay emergency fees
which are required at the time of services after hours in addition to
the services rendered. We accept cash, checks and credit cards. We appreciate
your understanding!
Thank you to all our loyal clients and patients! You are the best!
