Notes from our vets

Three things we find ourselves saying every week. Written down so you can take them home.

Lift the lip once a month. Red gums and brown crust mean it's time to book a dental, long before bad breath.

Dr. Ellis

After surgery, the cone stays on for ten days, even when they give you the eyes. Especially then.

Dr. Okafor

Rabbits need hay, more hay, and then hay. Pellets are a side dish, not dinner.

Dr. Ruiz

Our promise

We will never rush your pet, never hide a price, and never send you home without a plan.

Dr. Maya Ellis, founder

Ask a vet

Small questions, real answers

Patients can message the clinic between visits. A nurse or vet replies the same working day, free.

Tuesday, 9:12 am

Hi! Olive ate a grape off the floor this morning, just one. Should I worry?

Hannah

Thanks for telling us fast. Even one grape can upset a dog's kidneys, so we'd like to see her this morning. Can you come at 10:30?

Dr. Ellis

On our way. Thank you!

Hannah

Good news: bloodwork is normal. She's home for lunch, with a treat that isn't a grape.
