We believe that low-stress veterinary visits are essential to providing the highest standard of care. When pets experience fear and anxiety at the vet, it can compromise their health by making examinations and treatments more difficult. That’s why we offer Happy Visits—a proactive approach to ensuring your pet receives thorough, compassionate care in a stress-free environment.
What is a Happy Visit? A Happy Visit is a 20-minute appointment designed to help your pet feel safe and comfortable in the clinic. For $35, we create a positive experience using treats, praise, and gentle handling. We’ll take their weight, assess their Fear, Anxiety, and Stress (FAS) levels, and if appropriate, introduce a touch gradient to evaluate their comfort with handling. If needed, we’ll prescribe pre-visit medications to ensure that their examination is as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Why Are Low-Stress Visits Essential for Your Pet’s Health? A calm, cooperative pet allows us to conduct thorough, accurate examinations, leading to better diagnostics, more effective treatments, and lifelong health benefits. Happy Visits help by:
Reducing Stress & Anxiety – Fear-based reactions make exams difficult; early positive experiences set the stage for lifelong veterinary success.
Allowing More Comprehensive Medical Evaluations – A relaxed pet enables a more detailed physical exam, improving early disease detection and treatment.
Ensuring Safer Veterinary Care – When pets feel safe, we can provide medical care without unnecessary restraint or sedation.
Fostering a Lifetime of Positive Veterinary Experiences – Pets who feel at ease at the vet are more likely to receive consistent, preventive care, leading to longer, healthier lives.
One Patient at a Time – Focused, Individualized Care. We prioritize one patient at a time, ensuring your pet receives undivided attention in a quiet, controlled setting. This approach helps minimize stress triggers, creating a calm, positive experience that leads to better long-term health outcomes.
