For minor illnesses please call to discuss with our care team if urgent care appointments are available.

Wellness & Preventative Care

My comprehensive wellness examinations include a thorough physical assessment, personalized vaccination protocols, and preventative screenings for infection and systemic illnesses. These proactive health visits are designed to detect potential issues early, and maintain your pet's optimal health. We'll discuss your pet's lifestyle and dietary needs and develop a customized preventative care plan that fits their individual requirements.

Illness Diagnosis & Treatment

When your pet is not feeling well, I provide diagnostic evaluations and evidence-based treatment for a range of medical conditions. My approach combines careful examination with appropriate diagnostic testing to identify health issues and develop effective treatment plans. I'll work closely with you to determine if further diagnostics are recommended, and if at-home care or in-hospital treatment would be the most beneficial option for your pet.

Behavioral Consultations

Understanding that behavioral assessments can significantly impact your pet's quality of life, I offer initial behavioral assessments and work collaboratively with top local trainers and specialists to develop a customized behavior modification plan that addresses your pet's specific needs. My goal is to restore harmony in your home, increase your pet’s comfort level, and strengthen the human-animal bond.

---

Telemedicine

I offer extended virtual consultations for established clients that provide convenient access to veterinary guidance from the comfort of your home. These telehealth appointments are ideal for follow-up care, medication adjustments, behavioral discussions, and addressing minor concerns that don't require hands-on-examination.

Pain Management & Hospice

I provide compassionate, tailored pain relief and end-of-life care to ensure your pet's comfort and dignity during their senior years or when facing serious illness. My multimodal pain management approach is customized to each pet's specific needs, focusing on maintaining quality of life and supporting both pets and their families during more difficult times.

---

Peaceful End-of-Life

I understand that saying goodbye to a beloved companion is one of life's most difficult experiences. My compassionate in-home euthanasia services allow your pet to pass peacefully surrounded by family in the comfort of their own environment. I handle these sacred final moments with the utmost care, respect, and dignity. I can arrange appropriate aftercare services to honor your pet's memory. I welcome any questions you may have about making this decision and what happens during this visit.

Travel Health Certificates

Whether you're planning domestic or international travel with your pet, I provide expert assistance with health certifications and documentation requirements. I will work with you to ensure that you have a comprehensive understanding of travel regulations for your pet’s destination. Together, we’ll ensure your pet meets all necessary health requirements for safe and legal transportation.

Diagnostic Ultrasound

I offer in-house diagnostic ultrasound services for dogs and cats to help identify and evaluate a wide range of medical conditions. While I am not a board-certified radiologist, I am trained to perform high-quality ultrasound scans, which are then reviewed and interpreted by a board-certified veterinary radiologist. This collaborative approach ensures accurate diagnosis and supports the best possible care for your pet.

Before the Visit

My visit fees are listed here on my website and discussed upfront, so there are no surprises. Before arriving at your home, I'll review your pet's medical history and any records you've provided when possible. This preparation allows me to make the most of our time together. It ensures I'm ready to address your pet's specific health needs when I arrive.

During the Visit

Every pet is unique, and I believe in creating individualized care plans that work best for your furry family member. My typical house call visits last approximately 45 minutes, giving us plenty of time for a thorough examination, discussion of findings, and development of a treatment plan together. Payment is conveniently handled by credit card at the visit.

After the Visit

I believe in maintaining open communication with my clients. You can reach me by phone, email, or text with any questions or updates about your pet's progress. I'm always eager to hear how your pet is doing! For ongoing care needs, I also offer telemedicine consultations that make follow-up appointments convenient and accessible from your home.

My passion for veterinary medicine stems from my belief that every pet deserves individualized, compassionate care in their most comfortable environment - their home. I find joy in solving medical mysteries, building meaningful relationships with pets and their families, and providing personalized solutions for your unique situation. My goal is simple: to make a positive difference in your pet's life while strengthening your special bond.
