2020 has been an extraordinary year of challenges and losses. Our pets have provided comfort, companionship and some good laughs as they entertained those working from home. We have had to adapt and find innovative ways to safely and seamlessly care for our animal patients.

In this season of joy, peace and love, we are reminded how very privileged we are to have been able to provide care for your pets. We are honored that you have entrusted our staff with the responsibility of serving your family's pets healthcare needs and are grateful for the confidence you have shown us. Our most treasured gift is the trust you've placed in our veterinary care.

From everyone at our practice, we hope you and your pet have a happy and healthy holiday season!

​Common questions I hear from clients include "Is he too old for this surgery?" and "Do you think it's worth it to her because of her age?" Invariably, and with a smile, my answer is "Age is not a disease." This answer is more serious than it sounds (My "mature" clients actually love that quote!).
