What pet parents are saying
Dr Cory Korsgen, introduced herself as Cory. She did not rush. She was thorough in evaluating that the euthanasia was timed right and that it was the best thing for our pet. She was accommodating to our needs and gave so much of herself in our time of grief. She treated the whole process with so much respect and care. Even the transport of our pet after he passed was done so with care, he was carried out in comfort and the back of the vehicle was specially prepared to receive him. She made herself available for last minute requests. I will always recommend this for those that want their beloved fur babies not to suffer. Cory is a caring and beautiful person and she gives a part of that beauty to a very sad event helping to make the loss a little less painful. I am Forever grateful for you Cory.
Dr. Cory Korsgen has been incredible with both of my dogs. Her genuine passion for animals really shines through in the way she interacts with them, and it’s one of the main reasons I keep coming back. She’s amazing at reading their body language and understands their individual personalities, which allows her to tailor each visit to their unique needs. I have a cocker spaniel who is anxious and a german shepherd that's more rambunctious, and she handles both of them with patience and care. Thanks to her calm demeanor and ability to build trust, my dogs feel comfortable with her, even in stressful situations. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a vet who truly understands and loves animals!
Dr. Cory Korsgen was great in helping us through a very difficult time. She was very compassionate and treated Candy as though she were her own.
Making this decision is one of the hardest decisions, for me, to make - but having the ability to have my Jasper pass at home, in my arms, while in no way easy, but so much more comforting for me and I believe Jasper - there was no stress of going to the vet, waiting in the waiting room, waiting for the doctor. Dr Cory was wonderful, listened to my concerns and extremely compassionate - thank you very much for being there for me and Jasper.
I highly recommend Dr. Korsgen for in-home euthanasia. She is gentle, compassionate, and a terrific vet! I have had my dogs put down at the animal hospital in the past, and seeing them so anxious in their last hour is heartbreaking. Every pet deserves to be in the safety of their own home, next to the people they love, and in the care of a phenomenal veterinarian. Dr. Korsgen, I sincerely hope I will not need you anytime soon, but when the time comes I will 100% be calling you again.
She was awesome! The compassion and kindness she showed was second to none. We would never hesitate one second to recommend her to anyone.
