Meegan Panzarella, DVM
“For most people, their pets are family members, similar to having a child. And their owners want them to receive the highest level of care possible, on the order of what they’d expect for themselves.
As a doctor, it’s important that I appreciate the emotional connection that owners have toward their pets. So while providing state-of-the-art critical care, I do so with compassion.”
