Purpose of This Website
This website provides general information about Trussville Animal Hospital, our veterinary services, pet health topics, appointment options, and ways to contact us.
The website is intended for personal, noncommercial use. Information on the website may be changed, updated, or removed at any time.
No Veterinary Advice or Veterinarian-Client-Patient Relationship
The veterinary and pet health information provided on this website is for general educational and informational purposes only. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prevent any disease, injury, or medical condition and is not a substitute for an examination or advice from a licensed veterinarian.
Accessing this website, communicating with us through the website, or submitting an online form does not establish a veterinarian-client-patient relationship. Such a relationship is established only in accordance with applicable law and the professional requirements governing veterinary care.
Always consult a licensed veterinarian regarding questions about your pet’s health, medical condition, medications, or treatment.
Veterinary Emergencies
Do not rely on this website, email, social media, Google or AI, text messaging, or an online appointment form for emergency or time-sensitive veterinary care.
If you believe your pet may be experiencing an emergency, call Trussville Animal Hospital directly during our regular business hours. If we are unavailable or your pet needs care outside our regular hours, contact the nearest emergency veterinary facility.
Information submitted electronically may not be reviewed immediately.
Appointment Requests
Submitting an appointment request through this website does not guarantee or confirm an appointment. An appointment is confirmed only after Trussville Animal Hospital provides confirmation.
Please contact us directly if you need to change or cancel an appointment or if your pet’s condition changes while you are waiting for an appointment.
Additional scheduling, cancellation, deposit, or payment policies may be provided when an appointment is requested or confirmed. Those policies will apply to the applicable appointment.
Communications
When you provide your contact information through the website, we may use it to respond to your request, communicate about an appointment, or provide information concerning our veterinary services.
Email, text messaging, and website forms are not guaranteed to be secure, uninterrupted, or reviewed immediately. Please do not use these communication methods to send urgent requests or information you do not want transmitted electronically.
If you enroll in text messages from Trussville Animal Hospital, those communications are also governed by the consent language and SMS terms presented at the time of enrollment.

Disclaimer of Warranties
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, this website and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied.
This disclaimer applies only to the website and its content. It is not intended to modify any rights or obligations associated with veterinary services actually provided by Trussville Animal Hospital.
Some jurisdictions do not permit certain warranty exclusions, so portions of this section may not apply to you.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Trussville Animal Hospital and its owners, officers, employees, and agents will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages arising from or related to your use of, or inability to use, this website.

Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms of Use periodically to reflect changes to the website, our practices, or applicable requirements. Updated terms will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
Your continued use of the website after updated terms are posted means the revised terms will apply to your subsequent use of the website.

Any legal proceeding arising from the use of this website will be brought in an appropriate state or federal court serving Jefferson County, Alabama, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
General Provisions
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision of these Terms does not waive our right to enforce that provision in the future.
These Terms of Use, together with the Privacy Policy and any other terms expressly presented through the website, constitute the agreement between you and Trussville Animal Hospital concerning your use of the website. They do not replace agreements, consent forms, financial policies, or other terms that may apply to veterinary services provided to a client or patient.
