Comfort Room

We understand that end of life decisions can be hard for most people. We realize it may be difficult to be in an exam room where you often brought your pet for treatment and care.  For this reason, we offer a comfort room for you to sit with your pet when you are faced with end of life choices.  With more natural lighting and a home like atmosphere, our comfort room will allow you and your pet to be together in a more relaxed environment.
