Why choose a mobile veterinarian?

1)Pet anxiety: For most pets a visit to the veterinary hospital can be a very stressful event. Assuming the pets anxiety is due to the smells, site and sounds of other traumatized and fearful pets along with the memories of being pocked and prodded on previous visits, a pets fear of veterinary hospitals is a rational and real one. Choosing a mobile veterinarian will likely prevent any anxiety associated with pet medical care.

2) Convenience: Using a mobile veterinarian can minimize the time and effort it takes to obtain medical care for your pet.  Many people have busy schedules and can not afford the time it takes to bring the pets to the veterinary hospital.
