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.

Dr. Perzak was very kind and caring during a very difficult time for us and our dog Rooney. She made his last moments as peaceful as possible, which we greatly appreciated.
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.
Debra was a God sent angel ! She took her time with us and explained everything that she was doing! Harley was very happy with her and I think he was very grateful to her! We ended up knowing each other and that made for a pleasant experience! We couldn’t have wrote the ending any better!
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,💜
I called about my dog because for some reason her pain had just gotten unbearable all of a sudden so the doctor came to the house. I had my dog already laying down with the blanket and. When the doctor reached in her bag, she pulled out a needle that was large. My dog is Chihuahua mix 14 pounds at the time. The first shot, she screamed in pain yelped the second time I was trying to hold her head as still as I could and I did and she screamed again, but she, the doctor thought that the dog was already sedated and was going to give her the euthanasia shot and I said no she’s not asleep and she said she should she’s asleep and so I pulled out my dog’s leg up and she pulled back The second sedation shot was given and she cried again. I’m only telling you this because I feel like I wanted to do it at home because I wanted her to be more comfortable but after that, I don’t know I mean she was at home in bed with me, but I felt like she was she was going to think that I was hurting her right before she died. I can’t get it out of my mind. The euthanasia shot was given and and Dixie passed I understand these things happen but it just left a it left me feel bad for my dog. The doctor was nice but that doesn’t matter for my dog. It should’ve been smoother anyway the total charge was close to that $1000 but that included her urn And paw print . Bottom line I feel like the shots for sedation should have been done with the smaller needle and the light should’ve been enough to be able to put the needle in easier? I can’t take back her pain. I just hope she understands that I wasn’t trying to hurt her in her last time here thank you for your understanding. This is not meant to be mean this is just how I feel.
Dr. Deborah Perzak was the most amazing and professional person to help us process the tragic loss of our beloved pet Stella. She was so comforting and caring during the process. I would highly recommend her services when dealing with such an emotional experience.
