🦃 Happy Thanksgiving! Our clinic is open today, Wednesday 11/27 until 5 PM. Please call us if you need any last-minute refills of medications for your pets. We will be closed for the Thanksgiving holiday Thursday through Sunday and reopen at 9 AM on Monday morning (12/2). 

🏥 If you have medical concerns for your pet while we are closed, please go to www.vettriage.com/harmonymvc and you will be connected with a licensed veterinarian to do a video chat consult. They will give you advice as to whether your pet’s condition can be managed at home until normal business hours. If your pet needs in-person care, they will contact us or refer you to the most suitable emergency clinic.

🚑 Vet Triage is a service to enhance access to after-hours care. We try to have a doctor and staff available after hours, but this is not always immediately possible. This will help provide immediate access to medical advice for your pet so that your pet is cared for while allowing our small staff to have some time off during the holidays, and lessen after-hours phone calls. Emails, text messages and Facebook messages will not be checked after-hours and will be answered during normal business hours. 

Please do not contact staff on their personal devices. Their well-being and time off is important too! 🙂

🐾 Thank you for your support ❤️

🍁Happy Thanksgiving 🦃

🚑 To enhance after-hours access to care, we have partnered with VetTriage (www.VetTriage.com/Harmonymvc). This service provides a live video chat session with a licensed veterinarian so that you can get guidance on your medical concerns for your pet. The $50 fee also includes follow up consultations for the same issue if needed. This is a savings from the $200 in-person emergency visit fee.

🩺Often, after-hours conditions can be managed at home with follow-up during normal business hours. We have provided emergency services for our clients since we opened nine years ago. While we always try to have someone available, we have a small staff and there are times we may not be immediately available. This service has veterinarians available 24/7 so that your questions can be answered immediately rather than waiting for a call back. This service will send us a report for your pet’s medical record on the advice they provided.

🏥After-hours protocol for current patients of Harmony Mobile Veterinary Clinic (a current patient is one who has been seen at our clinic within the last year):

1. Go to www.vettriage.com/harmonymvc using a mobile device or computer with a camera.

2. Follow the instructions on VetTriage page to purchase ($50) and request your session with a vet.

3. The vet will join the session via video chat within a minute and triage your pet.

4. If you do not have internet access, you can call 1-800-940-1921 for a consultation via phone.

5. If your pet has a medical condition that must be seen in person, the VetTriage veterinarian will refer you to the most appropriate facility. That may include one of our veterinarians when available, or another emergency or urgent care facility, which may require you to travel. (Please note, other local clinics will only see their current patients, and we do not have an after-hours care agreement with other clinics in the area). 🐴 While we do not see equine patients, this service will triage an emergency with your horse with an equine veterinarian. 

6. If you text the clinic phone, email or Facebook message the clinic after-hours, those messages will be answered during normal business hours and will not be checked after-hours. Also, please do not contact our staff on their personal devices. They need time off from work and to be able to spend time with their families for their well-being.
Thank you. 🙂🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒🐶🐈

🇺🇸Thank you to everyone who supported HMVC while I was away on deployment in Djibouti, Africa for five months. I was part of a Civil Affairs Functional Specialty Team and had missions in Djibouti, Cameroon, Morocco and Somalia. I met some wonderful people and hopefully made an impact to support peace and stability in Africa.
🇩🇯🇨🇲🇲🇦🇸🇴

I’ve returned home safely. I appreciate everyone who checked in, sent cards or care packages. I couldn’t fulfill my military obligations without a wonderful team at home to keep the clinic going. Thank you to Dr. Cassie Ayers and team for covering yet another absence. Thank you all for supporting a business owned by a member of the U.S. Army Reserve Veterinary Corps! It has been an honor to serve. 🫡🇺🇸

Here are some photos to highlight my missions 🐐 🐪 🫏

On , we're sharing a few important reminders on the importance of microchips - such as:

➡ 1 in 3 family pets will get lost
➡ Microchipped dogs are more than twice as likely to be returned to their owners and microchipped cats are more than 20 times as likely to be returned to their owners

And remember - while microchips greatly increase the chances that pets will be reunited with their families if they are lost or stolen…a microchip only works if its registration information is accurate.

Visit avma.org/CheckTheChip to learn more.

🌼 Our next staff highlight:

🩺 Dr. Cassie Ayers Panik has been practicing veterinary medicine in the Upper Peninsula since graduating in 2009 from Michigan State University College of Veterinary Medicine. She is originally from the Ann Arbor area, but moved north when job opportunities for her and her husband were available.

⚕️As a veterinarian, Dr. Cassie knows the importance of and seeks to strengthen the bond between person and their pet with each visit. She enjoys meeting each new addition, whether young or older, and loves to see her patients grow and mature each year. Practicing in the area for the last 15 years, she has seen patients as puppies and kittens into their senior years! She is a very skilled surgeon, performing many soft tissue and abdominal procedures over the years. 🐈

👦👧🧒 Besides being a veterinarian, she is a wife to Michael and mom to three great kids who bring fun, love and challenges to each day.

🐕 Rusty Redford, a Chow Chow, fits in perfectly with their family, watching over them and being adored by all.

🌺 In the summer, you can find her in her flower and vegetable gardens, riding her horse, Sam, hiking, or enjoying the sun anywhere it is shining.🐴

🎿 In the winter, she enjoys cross-country skiing and snowmobiling with family and friends, or just curling up with a good book.

🇺🇸 The clinic could not operate without Dr. Cassie‘s hard work and dedication. She has covered two military deployments and several other missions while Dr. Jill is away on military duty. She is currently working extra days while Dr. Jill serves in an Army Civil Affairs mobilization in East Africa. 🇩🇯

🐾 Thank you, Dr. Cassie for your dedication to not only our clinic and staff, but our community, our clients and their beloved pets. We appreciate you! ❤️
