Saint Francis Animal Hospital

St. Francis Animal Hospital is a veterinary hospital making healthcare accessible to all owned pets. As common as this theory may be, it is flawed.
(176)

For so long, it has been the philosophy of some veterinarians - and even some pet owners - that if you can't afford to care for an animal, you shouldn't have a pet. Everyone deserves the unconditional love of a happy pet, and we are here to help you afford it! Our intense desire to provide a wide range of services, at prices you can afford, is the driving force behind our office. We treat dogs and

cats, and always welcome new patients with open arms. We are a full-service animal hospital providing the following services:
Emergency care
Surgery (including some specialty surgeries)
Hospitalization
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Dentistry
Bi-annual, Routine Checkups
Diagnostic Exams
Dermatological Exams
Heartworm Checks and Treatments
Flea Control
F***l Exams and De-worming Treatments
Growth Removals
Spays and Neuters

Long term, we aspire to be a full-service diagnostic and treatment center where we can offer affordable or subsidized treatment for more extensive problems such as periodontal disease, ruptured ligaments, and herniated disks; conduct orthopedic and heart surgeries; implement cancer treatments; and much more. Through community support, benefactor donations, and our loyal patients who walk through our door every day, we continue to move toward making our future goals a reality.

It's Vet Tech week!!!

09/27/2021

As of 2021 there are now 183,000,000 pets (dogs and cats) owned in the US. In 2018 there were 135,000,000.

Our country added FOURTY EIGHT MILLION patients to our profession in 3 years.

In 2018 there were 113,394 veterinarians.

In 2021 there ARE 118,624 plus our dedicated techs and assistants who are floundering under this burden.

Our profession has added 5,320 doctors. That is ONE doctor for every 1000 animals.

Let me say that again: that is ONE DVM PER 1000 patients.

YOU DO THE MATH. If you’re frustrated you cannot get in with your pet, if you’re mad about wait times at ANY vet’s office, if you’re feeling your pet is not getting the attention it deserves, it’s not. Because we can’t. WE CANNOT. Our profession CANNOT statistically support this rate of expansion at this time, in this country. PERIOD.

We are trying. We are drowning. This is inhuman and our profession is imploding. Think about it, human hospitals are not able to handle the sheer magnitude of the sick human population during COVID. And WE (veterinary medicine) are not able to handle how may pets were adopted (or more often) PURCHASED during the COVID pandemic.

This will not go away. These pets will live normal long lives (most of them) and so our profession will not be out of this for over a decade. If you think this “crazy wait time” will subside with the country wide pandemic, think again. There are only so many vet schools. Only so many new veterinary doctors. And endless patients out there…

Please THINK about that before you berate us. Yell at us. Get frustrated with us. Tell us we don’t care about your pet. Please think about that before you decide now is a good time to buy a dog or a cat.

Please think about that when that exhausted veterinary nurse comes to bring your pet inside and you have to wait hours to talk to the doctor. One doctor for every 1000 patients. This is a cry for help and compassion. From the trenches.

Want to help? Be kind. Be patient. Be understanding.

Help us. ❤️

09/03/2021

We will be open on Monda from 8:30-8PM. Taking walk ins 9AM-12PM like usual. Have a great holiday weekend!

Tom enjoying some late night play time. Not everyone has been lucky to see Tom in person at the office. He's a very shy cat and takes some time for him to warm up. But here he is in all of his glory.

Daily dose of morning cute to get you going. Every morning and evening we move the kittens to a empty cage so that we can clean out their big cage they stay in. This is when they have the most energy! 😻😹

Tom says I'm as big as a small dog and therefore I expect to be pet like a dog. #ILoveFeet

We still have lots of kittens up for adoption! They're all sweet, sociable, litter box trained and even like dogs. All are up to date on vaccines, testing and spayed or neutered.

Look at how cute we are!!!! 😻😻 We need a home!!!

Kitties galore. Please come adopt a cat!!!! We've plenty of them. 😻

My funny leg doesn't bother me one bit.

He says I may be small, but I am full of personality. 😻

Sweet Tom!!!

Tom & Ben are stopping in to say hello 😻
