Our In-Home Veterinary Services Serving St. Tammany Parish
At Home Euthanasia
One of our doctors will talk with you about your concerns and/ or questions surrounding euthanasia.
Once your decision is made to move forward with euthanasia an IV catheter will be placed. A sedative will then be given that allows your pet to go to sleep peacefully prior to the euthansia medication. You can spend some time saying goodbye. The final part will be to administer the euthanasia solution to let your pet pass on. This is the most selfless gift we can provide our pets when they are suffering and no longer have quality of life.
After the euthanasia, our doctor will be able to transport your pet for cremation (if desired), or you may choose to keep your pet for home burial. There is an excellent pet crematorium in New Orleans called Heaven's Pets (www.heavenspets.com) whom we have worked with for many years. If cremation is sought for your pet, you can fill out a pre-planning form at the Heaven's Pets website in advance, or contact them via phone to make advance arrangements at (504) 482-7387. From years of experience working with them, they have handled this process with the utmost care and respect that pets and their families deserve. They offer both private cremation and communal cremation and after hours drop off services. Please click on this link for pricing associated with cremation through Heaven’s Pets. If we are dropping off after hours a representative from Heaven’s Pets will contact you to discuss your wishes and collect any costs involved with your pets cremation.

Telemedicine
We are excited to offer our current clients the opportunity to engage in telemedicine. Telemedicine is not trying to replace visits to the hospital. Rather it’s about complementing our in hospital services and establishing a means to monitor patients and communicate with clients using the most advanced technology. Clients are always welcome to call and schedule an appointment, but we hope that our clients will appreciate the flexibility of a telemedicine consultation when appropriate.
With the advancement of technology literally putting cameras in our hands (through most cell phones) veterinary telemedicine can thrive. It saves you a trip to the vet while putting your mind at ease with quick feedback from your veterinary team. Rather than calling the clinic phone with a question about your pet, you can engage in a video call or send a picture through a chat and show your veterinarian exactly what’s concerning you. This gives us a thorough understanding of the situation, too, so we can offer you the best advice.
Response time is 1-2 hours. This is not meant to be used in an emergency.

Are All Pets Eligible For Telemedicine?
When it comes to enhancing and improving patient care, the AVMA encourages veterinarians to make the best use of technology possible, while still maintaining high-quality, safe, responsible veterinary practices. In order to do so, the AVMA permits veterinarians to practice telemedicine inside their veterinary license’s issuing state. Except in the event of an emergency, veterinarians are only allowed to provide patient-specific advice, treatments, or dietary recommendations via telemedicine for patients with whom they have an established veterinarian-client patient relationship (VCPR).
