About PetWellClinic - Union: We are a fast-growing company that is providing a new and exciting way for veterinarians to practice high-quality medicine in a manner that is convenient and affordable to clients.
We offer convenience because we are a walk-in only clinic.
Clients can check in either on-line or in person, and since the clinics have an “open-concept” design, clients can see when you are busy helping other pets.
We are affordable because our focus is on wellness services, the treatment of minor illnesses and injuries, and the diagnosis and management of chronic medical conditions.
We do not have the costly overhead that is required to perform surgeries, dentistry, or x-rays, nor do we have ringing telephones tying up extra staff members.
Essentially, we are the veterinary version of a general family practice.
Just as your family medicine doctor does, you will work with neighboring veterinary practices for pets that require emergency care, hospitalization, imaging, dentistry, surgery, or end of life care.
