Hamilton Veterinary Services LLC (HVS) was born in 2020 out of the need to care for my patients during the COVID 19 outbreak. When COVID forced my workplace to close to the public I was suddenly without a place to care
for my beloved patients. A house call veterinary practice has been my dream for some time. This combined with my determination to continue to help my patients and clients was the impetus behind HVS. I have found it a privilege to provide healthcare to my patients in their home setting during such challenging times. My experience has shown how positively it affects animals when they feel at ease in their own environment. It has also been special developing deeper relationships with my clients; house call practice has brought me closer into the fold of my patient’s and client’s lives. Additionally, client’s benefit being present for their pet’s medical care. The safety challenges of COVID 19 have necessitated that clients wait in a parking lot or on the street while their pet receives medical care at brick-and-mortar veterinary practices. The positive results of providing a lower stress, more personal and informative environment for patients and clients has made life a bit easier for everyone. ~ Dr. Hamilton
