CHECK OUT OUR NEW THERAPEUTIC LASER! 

We have added the latest technology for joint and soft tissue pain problems, the Companion Therapy Laser.  This Laser reduces swelling in joints and soft tissues which dramatically reduces pain caused by pressure.  Treatments last 3 to 6 minutes per site and require no anesthesia.  Laser Therapy can be used for chronic conditions and may reduce the need for injections or oral medications.  To learn more please call one of our staff, talk to one of our veterinarians or visit this website, www.paininthepast.com                 

 

 

 

EVE'S ORPHANS

     It is with great sadness that the entire staff of Bennetts Creek Veterinary Care announce the passing of “Eve”, the original Eve’s Orphan.  Taken in as a wandering stray with severe mange and numerous health issues, it took months to nurse her back to health.  She worked her way into the hearts of all of us here at the clinic, and especially her new owners, the Blackburn family. 

     After being provided with a loving and healthy home for years, they made the selfless decision to act in her best interest as she confronted yet another immune disease and this time, was losing the battle.  We will all remember “Eve”, her brave spirit, the graciousness of adoptive families like the Blackburns that allow us to continue to place pets into living homes, and the generosity of our numerous Eve’s Orphans donors.

      Eve's Orphans is a non-registered charity that was created by the doctors and staff at Bennetts Creek Veterinary Care to provide funding for the care of orphaned and abandoned animals that would otherwise be euthanized.  It was named for our very first adoptee, a stray pit bull with many health problems.  We were able to treat her and find her a great new home, but at considerable expense. By donating to the Eve's Orphans fund, you are helping us to provide reduced-cost care to many of those pets that need it

     Our current rescue case came from the Suffolk Humane Shelter.  A young kitten with neurologic issues, it was determined that one of her front legs would need to be amputated.  If the Eve's Orphans fund was not set up then this sweet, beautiful kitten would have to go back to the shelter and would be euthanized. 

     Eve's Orphans is able to help save pets with donations from people who love animals as much as we all do here at BCVC.  Please let us know if you would be willing to make a donation to save another life.  We can accept payment in any form including credit cards just call our front staff at 757-483-5990.
