Dr. Yang is wildly empathetic and kind. I could not have asked for a better person to help my dog cross the rainbow bridge. She was professional and allowed me to mourn in the moment and explained everything she was doing before she did it to ease my mind. I highly recommend her and can’t thank her enough for helping out in such a hard moment.

This doctor immediately came to action for this sudden & difficult but necessary decision, showing such a professional and empathetic attitude throughout the whole process, she made sure Baby was comfortable for her final moments and gave us the best quality assurance and putting to sleep process. I'm forever grateful and glad she came to us and ensured our pet was laid to rest.

Dr. Pilago showed so much care and compassion when we had to make the painful decision to put our handsome pup Rodney to sleep. I highly recommend her.

I wanted to take a moment to thank a very special doctor, Dr. Karen Duncan of CodaPet, along with the incredible team at Eastern Shore Cremation and Funeral Service. Laying Thor to rest has been one of the hardest things we have ever had to do. Dr. Karen Duncan is an amazing soul who truly found her calling. She arrived, took the time to get to know Thor, and after giving us the time we needed, gently and confidently reassured us that letting him go with dignity was the most selfless thing we could do. She made us feel like we had known her for years. She explained everything, supported us through every step, and gave us the time and space to process such a heartbreaking moment. The compassion and care did not stop there. The follow-up and support from Eastern Shore Cremation and Funeral Service was beyond anything we could have imagined. The kindness, humanity, and understanding shown to our family is something so many businesses have lost over time. Thank you all for the compassion, dignity, humility, and care you showed us during one of the hardest moments of our lives. These are gifts and skills that simply cannot be taught.

Dr. Delia could not have been more compassionate in her work with me and my dog. Her presence, gentleness and pacing all contributed to a peaceful process at this heartbreaking time. Would recommend her to anyone facing the same situation.

Dr. Duvall did a fantastic job easing our dog out of this world, and in tending to our human needs and concerns as well. She really went the extra mile and was full of compassion for all of us. I can't imagine how the inherently difficult situation could have been made any easier.
