A peaceful transition is one of the most selfless things you can do as your pet nears their end of life journey. 

Hospice/
Palliative Care

$550

The veterinary hospice model focuses on transitioning from invasive medical procedures to providing comfort care to maintain a good quality of life for both the pet and their family.  The doctor provides a hospice plan that empowers families to shift to a home-based model for their pet’s care. Hospice/palliative care is appropriate for any life limiting condition that contributes to an excessive burden for the caregiver or medical treatment that the patient no longer tolerates.  

*Additional fees will apply if diagnostics/treatments are initiated as part of the hospice plan.

Quality of Life Consultation

$385

The consultation appointment is designed to ease the fear of making the decision to say good-bye too soon or too late.  It is a good solution for families that do not want a full hospice plan, but guidance on interpreting “when it is time”. 

Acupuncture (Initial)

$335

Acupuncture is one of four main components of Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM). It is a very safe medical procedure that involves the insertion of thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body in order to elicit a beneficial and therapeutic effect. The goal is to restore the normal body’s balance, specifically the Yin and Yang energy/Qi balance which helps with pain relief, promotes tissue healing, provides anti-inflammatory effects, regulates gastrointestinal motility, immune response/hormone levels, and relieves fever.
