Verified Veterinarian
Becoming a veterinarian was a lifelong dream. I have always felt solace around animals. I understood as a child that animals are amazing - not because they are like us - but because they are like themselves. I am deeply committed to helping people understand what their beloved pet is experiencing and when (and how) to say goodbye. I feel called to do this work - to stand next to people as they navigate the beautiful heartache that comes from loving creatures we outlive. I see the best of people every day - as they break their hearts and heal their hearts. I am motivated by the love I see - the tenderness - the mercy.

Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald was so kind, compassionate and understanding of the difficult decision it was to put down our beloved dog Bandit -our rescue dog of 15 years and one that we had before having kids! Dr. Delia really understood how painful this decision was and took the time to talk with me over the process and my concerns. She even shared her experience with putting down a beloved dog-so she gets it. I miss my Bandit dearly, but I know she is in a better place and I am so thankful of the support Delia was able to provide during that difficult time. Highly recommend Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald.
Dr Delia made the process of having to put our dog to sleep much easier. She was kind, caring and considerate and explained the process enough to put us at ease. She called before the appointment to connect and clarify some things and was also very good with advice on how to handle this as a family. I’ve already recommended her to a friend and would continue to do so.
Our dog Char was dying of thyroid cancer and we came to the difficult decision to let her go. We were worried about the process and thought maybe we would be questioned by the vet regarding our decision. Dr Delia was so sympathetic and kind and gave us the support that we needed. Dr Delia made sure we understood everything and had time to ask questions. She made sure that Char’s passing was the most comfortable way possible. I would recommend Dr Delia to anyone that is looking into at home euthanasia for their beloved pet.
Dr Delia was more than we could have hoped for throughout this very difficult time. She helped us immeasurably with the difficult decision and passing of our beloved Stella. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.
Delia MacDonald is so compassionate and helpful in holistic practices. She had the hard job of telling me my dog had bone cancer and was patient in explaining prognosis and suggesting options for my dog’s sake as well as my own. When the time came to say goodbye, Delia came to my home within hours of my request. I’ve had a lot of dogs but this was by far the most peaceful departure I experienced. Much love and spirituality in the unrushed ceremony of celebrating life. My dog was calm and her soul was free to leave her body. I will be forever grateful for having Delia with us on this special day. Thank you Delia!
Dr Delia was caring and patient. It was such a difficult time but she helped us through. I am glad to have had her help my precious dog have a peaceful passing.
