  • Recently, my father brought his 13-year-old dog Matty here for a serious illness (a tumor near or on his liver had burst and was bleeding into his stomach). I met my dad there so he wouldn't have to be alone while deciding how to proceed. The vet who consulted with us - Stephanie Olsavsky - couldn't have been more thorough or compassionate while explaining my dad's options.
