Effective January 1, 2025, Crescent City Vet is implementing a $10 service fee for veterinarians to approve prescription requests by third-party pharmacies to offset the

significant time and effort required from our doctors and support staff.  Due to the rapidly increasing volume in requests over the past few years, it is no longer feasible to provide this service free of charge.

Your continued support allows us to maintain the highest standard of care for your beloved pets. We thank you for your patience and understanding during this necessary change.

For questions or assistance with our online pharmacy, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Thank you for trusting us with your pet’s health and wellness.

Amanda Newman, DVM

I grew up in the Greater New Orleans area and graduated with honors from Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine in 2002. After practicing in various clinics in the area over the past 18 years, I am thrilled to be a part of the Crescent City Vet family now. I have a wonderful human family that includes my husband Sam, and my amazing daughters Jasmine and Jaden. We also have krewe of rescue animals that include a goofy German Shepherd named Sid, Penito the lively Maltese, a spunky Pomeranian named Mer, three cats, two rats, and the sweetest disabled opossum. I enjoy drawing, reading, and love spending time with my family — we love our games of badminton together. You can also find me at Coconut beach playing volleyball with my volleyball team!
