We are deeply thankful to Dr. Shannon Nakaya for the care and compassion she showed during our beloved dog Giggsy’s final moments. Saying goodbye was an incredibly painful decision and a very difficult day for us, but her kindness, patience, and gentle approach helped ease the burden. Dr. Nakaya guided us through the process with understanding and treated Giggsy with such tenderness and respect. Her compassion and professionalism truly made all the difference during this heartbreaking time.

Dr. Devlin was wonderful, kind, and patient with my wife and me. He gave us clear explanations of the procedure, and allowed us the time that we needed for such an impossible task.

Dr. Ortman is the most accommodating and thoughtful vet I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. He kept us informed through the entire process and made Norma as comfortable as possible in her last moments. If your animal needs that extra care and has special circumstances, I would recommend Dr. Ortman 10 out of 10.

Dr. Duvall did a fantastic job easing our dog out of this world, and in tending to our human needs and concerns as well. She really went the extra mile and was full of compassion for all of us. I can't imagine how the inherently difficult situation could have been made any easier.

Dr. Bean and his assistant were very thoughtful and professional. My dear little Callie Kitty actually offered him a little head butt. His assessment and expertise helped me to accept the choice I made to help my kitty cross the rainbow bridge. Callie had cancer. Dr. Bean offered prayer which was gratefully accepted by us. Dr. Bean took his time and answered all our questions. The comfort of our pet was front and center. My dear est kitty of 14 years is missed, but she is no longer suffering. Thank you Dr. Bean!

When Dr Martin arrived, my little guy Barney ran to the door to greet him like he did all guests. He even barked at him, before jumping up to him to get attention. Dr Martin greeted him back, warmly and sincerely. He was playful with Barney while explaining the process to us. Lane made a horrible no win situation more acceptable with his calm demeanor and soothing words. I can't thank Dr Martin enough for helping little Barney come to peaceful end to his life's journey.
