What pet parents are saying

Dr. Korsgen was the most empathetic and kind professional during the euthanasia of my canine friend. She even went the extra mile to rearrange her schedule to arrive at my home a few hours earlier than originally planned, because my dog's decline and suffering were escalating. I'm not a religious person, but Dr. Korsgen was an angelic presence. She was so sweet and gentle with my dog, and so very patient and understanding with me. I will always be thankful to Dr. Cory Korsgen for her special touch.

Dr. Cory was very kind and helpful in answering and guiding us throughout this difficult time as our Yondu left us at such a young age. She was so supportive and gentle with him. I would definitely recommend her if you’re looking for in home euthanasia. Thank you Dr. Cory

Making this decision is one of the hardest decisions, for me, to make - but having the ability to have my Jasper pass at home, in my arms, while in no way easy, but so much more comforting for me and I believe Jasper - there was no stress of going to the vet, waiting in the waiting room, waiting for the doctor. Dr Cory was wonderful, listened to my concerns and extremely compassionate - thank you very much for being there for me and Jasper.

In-home euthanasia with Dr. Korsgen is truly the best option. Dr. Korsgen put me at ease and walked me through the entire process from start to finish. She was very knowledgeable, gentle, and my dogs loved her. While it was unbelievably hard to say goodbye it was really nice to be able to do so at home. It was also very helpful to have my other dog present during the process so that he could have some closure. Thank you so much Dr. Korsgen!
