Can you imagine telling your dog, “Let’s go to the vet!” and seeing her tail wag? How about getting out your cat’s carrier and seeing him come running? With Fear Free® Veterinary Care this IS possible. Mac Animal Clinic is part of a new transformative initiative sweeping veterinary medicine designed to ease the stress, fear, and anxiety so many pets experience while at the veterinarian.

Dr. Mac and her team of Fear Free® Certified Professionals have completed extensive training which helps veterinarians and entire practices modify their procedures, handling, and facilities to help pets feel safe and comfortable while receiving the medical care they need.

The coveted Fear Free® Practice certification takes Fear Free® implementation to the next level. As a Fear Free® Certified Practice, we have integrated Fear Free® principles into all aspects of our practice: culture and leadership, client education, staff training, our facility and patient visits.

Fear Free® Practice Certification requires a practice to meet 27 mandatory standards and earn a minimum of 1,070 points out of a possible 2,060 from another 28 standards. Some standards require as many as 9 action items to be met.

The difference we make for our patients daily is worth every ounce of effort. At Mac Animal Clinic, we are committed to caring for both your pet's physical and emotional well being.
