Last night, as I finished my final shift at 59 W Main Street, I paused with the team to reflect on the journey that brought us here and to appreciate this building for all it has given us. When I purchased this practice 4.5 years ago, I knew how critical it was to keep urgent veterinary care available to the North Country, and I was committed to ensuring that urgent veterinary care remained available in the region.
The building wasn't perfect, not even close, but we knew that we could make it work. Despite all of its shortcomings, 59 W Main St gave me the chance to own a veterinary hospital, identify and meet the needs of the community, and connect with the wonderful people who live and vacation here.
As the practice grew and we built a team to provide progressive, compassionate care, I held onto the vision that one day we would be able to build the high quality, thoughtfully designed space that our clients and patients deserve.
Many of you will remember the tight parking, the cramped rooms, and the ways we all made it work together. Through every growing pain and long wait, you’ve stuck with us. Your patience, trust, and support have meant so much to us. You believed us when we said, “Someday, we’ll have more space. Someday, we’ll have better parking.” That day is finally here and we are so excited to share it with you.
Today we see our last patients at 59 W Main St. and on Thursday we’ll open the doors to our new location at 1985 St Johnsbury Rd in a space built with the same heart and mission, and with your comfort and your pets’ care at the center of it all.
Thank you for being part of this journey, for believing in what we’re building, and for letting us grow alongside you. We can't wait to welcome you all to our new home.
