She was wonderful. So kind and compassionate. Took time to talk to me and review labs and medical records. I never felt rushed or that I was inconveniencing her even though it was a holiday and a weekend. It was so hard and I’m still so sad

I cannot express enough the gratitude I feel for Dr. Lisa Feig. It was heart wrenching knowing I had to say goodbye to my precious Dottie before she began to suffer. We loved her so much. With that said, Dr. Lisa Feig made the experience so much easier and peaceful for our sweet girl. I knew Dottie was not in pain and crossed over in the most peaceful way. Dr. Feig is the most compassionate, caring, thoughtful doctor anyone could ask for. Anyone who has Dr. Feig in their life as wife, mother, daughter, friend--is an extremely lucky person. She was so giving of her time and patience. I recommend at home euthanasia to everyone. Having your loved one home, comfortable in their surroundings is really the best option. I hated the idea of her being at a hospital or vet clinic in a sterile environment. I got to hold her and tell her how pretty she was and how loved she was. And all the while, Dr. Feig demonstrated such genuine compassion. My fiancé and I were blown away. It takes a special person to do this type of job. And Dr. Lisa Feig more than meets that requirement. A million thanks to her and Coda Pet.

Faced the difficult decision to euthanize our beloved 18 year old Papillon and used Codapet to do it in our home as our dog hated to go to the vet. Dr. Katie Todd arrived and explained in detail the process, gave us plenty of time to say our goodbyes, and made the process as easy as possible. She was very reassuring to my children that we had made the right decision and explained all the options for taking care of the remains and provided us with keepsakes to ease the family’s pain. Thank you so much Dr.Todd in doing what has to be one of the world’s toughest jobs!

In my life I have been blessed to have a few dogs. Saying goodbye is part of the price we pay. Dr. Gordon made this horrible time easier. I will be eternally grateful for the kindness and compassion she showed not only our precious Baby Girl but also us.

I NEVER leave reviews - I had to google how to even do it, but Dr April deserves every star. If I could give her 100 stars, I would. This is never an easy thing for a family to do, say goodbye to our Honeybear, but I knew it was time and I chose Dr April based on availability and reviews I saw quickly. She was the most compassionate, heartwarming and wonderful person to help us and our cat feel as comfortable as we could be. She explained the process extremely well, allowed all 5 of us (and 2 other cats) to gather around, she was extremely gentle and kind during this hard time for us all. If you are wondering if you should give your pet this end if you are able, do it, Dr. April will be the person I will trust our pets with when it's time to cross the bridge. Thank you Dr April for all you gave our family.
