VetIQ Petcare holds ribbon-cutting ceremony at Sand Springs Walmart

VetIQ Petcare held a ribbon cutting ceremony at their new Sand Springs location Friday morning, and will hold a Grand Opening celebration on Saturday with adoptable animals from Sand Springs Animal Welfare.

Located on the front side of the Walmart Supercenter at 220 South Highway 97, the clinic is only accessible from the parking lot, and cannot be entered through the retail store. 

PetIQ has distributed its products through the retailer for years, and expanded to veterinary services in January with the acquisition of VIP Petcare. 

VetIQ has a landlord-tenant relationship with Walmart and plans to open more than 1,000 locations nationwide by 2023. The first twenty clinics are expected to open by the end of June, and Oklahoma is spearheading the launch with the first three locations opening last month in Bartlesville, Edmond, and Duncan. 

The clinic provides only routine petcare such as checkups, vaccinations, deworming, microchipping, and nail trimming, and does not offer surgical services or overnight boarding. They also work directly with the Walmart Pharmacy to offer on-site prescription services. Walk-in services are available and no appointment is required.

VetIQ is currently running several special discounts, including free rabies vaccines, $10.00 nail trimming, and $10.00 microchipping through the end of July.  

The Sand Springs location will be open seven days a week, 11:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 12:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. on Sunday.
