NOTE- SERVICE PAUSED 7/16/2025
Dear valued clients and friends,
As most of you know, I've had to make some adjustments to my housecall route recently due to some changes in my life. As my mom was fond of saying, sometimes the right thing at the wrong time is the wrong thing. I have become aware that I'm going to need to pause my acupuncture route until I have more time and bandwidth available. Not to worry, I am ok, as is my family- I'll still at the emergency clinic in Fargo, and I'll still be doing some acupuncture there if there's an emergency. My reason for writing this is that it's difficult to predict if or when I'll be able to start seeing patients again outside the e-clinic. I am aware that many of your pets benefit from routine acupuncture care. Thus, I will fully support seeking ongoing care with another veterinarian doing this sort of work if you choose. I am aware of several options for you, there may be others, but I'm at least aware these folks are taking new clients. For those of you with prescriptions, you should have refills available where appropriate, if not, I likely can authorize refills through the end of the year if you need them. You should all have copies of your acupuncture records- if you need something specific, I'll dig it out for you. Email is likely the best way to reach me for now. benstegmandvm@gmail.com. Otherwise, I will keep you all posted on my plans, and thank you so much for your understanding and business over the years.
