Verified Veterinarian
I wanted to become a veterinarian so that I could make a difference. When I was in college, I had a deep interest in science and research, and I loved to challenge myself. I was fortunate as a child to have parents that understood my love for animals and would allow me to "bring home the strays", so to speak. I worked for several years in the restaurant industry before deciding to use my gifts with people and animals, as well as my science background, to pursue my dream of becoming a veterinarian. I believe in the golden rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. To me, this means treating the people I meet and the pets I take care of with respect, dignity, and compassion. I liken being a veterinarian to a pediatrician: Since both pets and small children cannot always communicate to me what is wrong, or where it hurts, it is up to me to listen to the pet parent and use what they say to help diagnose and treat their pet.

Deborah, Thank You for helping us during this time of losing our baby. You made of feel at peace, you are doing what God has called you for. I will be telling anyone I know that needs to say goodbye to there pets to contact you.
Dr Perzak is a lovely person. She is very professional and has empathy for the people going through this process. Thank you, Dr Perzak. I hope life treats you as well as you treat others.
I would 100 % recommend Dr. Perzak and CodaPet. She was professional, kind and understanding of the fears and emotions of a pet parent. I texted several times between booking and final service and she was always available with warmth and knowledge. Letting an aging pet go is heavy on the heart but the process was as calm and peaceful as it could be. My 14 yr old lab crossed the rainbow bridge comfortably at home surrounded by his family to include two canine buddies. There was no difficult travel to the vet or associated anxiety. A heartfelt Thank You to Dr. Perzak,💜
Dr. Perzak was very compassionate and supportive during our family's difficult time of letting go of our sweet Lilly! She was kind & patient. My son is military so he was not able to be home to say his goodbyes to his childhood dog. He was able to be a part via video call & she took the time to talk with him as well to include him in the moments to say goodbye. Her genuine compassion of our loss helped us understand why it was best to let our Lilly go who was very sick. Our family appreciates everything she did for us! Thank you so much Dr. Perzak!♥️
Dr. Perzak was wonderful with our little dog Tucson when it was time for him to cross the rainbow bridge. It was such a hard decision to make for us to let him go but Dr. Perzak was so gentle and comforting that it made it a little easier. We would highly recommend her if that time comes.
Being able to give our 15-year-old cat a peaceful passing at home, on her own porch where she felt safe and happy, was an absolute gift. She deserved it and we felt it was a small way to thank her for the beautiful gift of her loyalty and love. And Dr. Deborah Perzak was exactly the caring, compassionate soul we needed to help us all through it. We will be forever grateful.
