Very thorough and detailed. I have no doubts and have a clear understanding of how to proceed. Dr. Lum was very effective at explaining this to me and I rarely ever get the feeling that I was given the best option for my needs. But Dr Lum did not disappoint.

Joel prescribed us some flea medicine for our Bois allergy issue. He’s allergic to fleas. So hopefully Max will thrive and be the fun, sweet dog he is 😊
