As large corporations acquire more veterinary hospitals and online pharmacies dominate the market, choosing to fill your pet’s prescriptions at Beacon Veterinary Hospital is more than just convenient. It’s a direct way to support us—the people who live, work, and care in our community, especially as we recover from the devastating impact of Hurricane Helene. Every time you choose to use our pharmacy, you’re supporting our rebuild and our return to Swannanoa.
In today’s economy, online pharmacies may seem appealing due to discounts and fast shipping. However ordering from Beacon provides valuable advantages. We pride ourselves on personalized and prompt care. Our highly trained staff know you and your pet best, and we are always available to answer questions via text, email, or phone call quickly. We ensure prompt
responses!
Other key reasons to use our pharmacy:
● Medications are usually available for same-day pickup. You don’t have to worry about shipping delays, improper storage, or lost packages.
● We source all medications from vetted pharmacies, which is vital for chain of custody and proper storage of medications. Multiple reports of counterfeit medications from online pharmacies are available online. When you order from us, you are getting safe and legitimate medications from licensed manufacturers.
● Beacon’s medications are backed by manufacturer guarantees, and many offer rebates, as well. These are only valid for medications purchased through a veterinarian, offering protection against reactions, side effects, or ineffectiveness, as well as cost-savings. A good example is a patient we’ve treated in the past year. She was diagnosed with a breakthrough heartworm infection despite her owner’s diligent care and monthly preventions since puppyhood. Since she received her medications through our pharmacy, the treatment was completely covered by the manufacturer.
● We provide comprehensive discussions of side effects, risks, and drug interactions. Dr. Johansson and Dr. Ashe stay current on new medications, recommended uses, interactions, and any safety concerns.
● All prescribed medications are immediately recorded in your pet’s medical record. If your pet needs an adjustment or has a poor reaction, we can respond promptly and adjust medications as needed.
For us at Beacon, what matters most is that your pet family member receives the medications they need to live a happy and healthy life. As much as we appreciate when clients opt to use our pharmacy, we understand that times are tough for many people. At the end of the day, our biggest concern is you and your pet!
