Fear-Free Pet Visits:  We are committed to reducing your pets fear, anxiety, and stress associated with office visits.  This includes having one of our exam rooms dedicated to feline visits, having stress-reducing pheromone diffusers in our hospital, practicing low-stress handling during appointments, and offering positive reinforcement during our exams with treats in all of our exam rooms.  In cases of severe stress or anxiety, we may recommend calming medication prior to vet visits.  This allows us to give a thorough veterinary examination without causing extreme stress and anxiety to pets when necessary.
