Join our own Dr. G at next week's Maddie's Community Conversations!
We hope to see you on the next Community Conversation on Monday, 3/3/25 at 11am PT for "Affordable and Accessible Care Through Mobile Veterinary Clinics."
Providing mobile, affordable, and accessible veterinary care is crucial for promoting animal welfare and public health. Many low-income and rural areas lack access to traditional veterinary services due to financial, geographical, and logistical barriers. Mobile veterinary units bridge this gap by delivering essential care directly to these communities, ensuring pets receive preventive care, spay/neuter services, and treatment for illnesses. Affordable options reduce economic strain on pet owners, decreasing the risk of abandonment or neglect of animals due to the high cost of care. Furthermore, accessible veterinary services enhance the health of both animals and humans by controlling zoonotic diseases and supporting the emotional well-being of families through the human-animal bond. In this Community Conversation, we will share insights on how you can help bring this service to your community and encourage others to join your mission.
