Bay Area Veterinary Housecall Associates

Veterinary Care

Our practice was created to serve our clients veterinary needs with an emphasis on providing gold standard medicine and reducing patient stress by while making care as convenient as possible to our clients. We believe that our veterinarians and support staff get the best understanding of patients by observing them in their home environment. When necessary we can transport patients to state of the art facilities for diagnostics or procedures. However, the vast majority of preventative care, diagnostics, and treatments can be provided in the home environment.

While we strive to keep veterinary care convenient, we also recognize that sometimes unexpected, urgent care is necessary. As such, we provide after hours care to clients at home whenever possible. This means that we can often provide an alternative to the emergency room visit after hours or on weekends. When emergent care is needed that cannot be provided at home or in our available facilities, we can help with referral and have access to animal medical transport services that can assist wherever is necessary.

    With a heavy heart I made the phone call to BAVH. My vet had recommended them. ... Dr. Brian came to the house on Sunday morning. He is truly an angel and he loves animals. He was gentle and kind, explaining everything. He took his time and gave us time to do whatever we needed. ...

    We now have a beautiful plaque with Soxx's paw print and a wonderful cedar box with his ashes. We will treasure these and our memories of our beloved boy, Soxx.

    Thank you, BAVH, Jennifer and Dr. Brian for your wonderful help.

    I highly recommend this vet clinic. ... I appreciated that they understood how serious this was and worked with me to deal with it as quickly as possible.

    Even though vet visits are stressful for my cat no matter what, the team that came by was patient and understanding, which helped ease some of her anxiety. Overall this was a much better experience than a traditional vet visit, and I will continue seeing them in the future!

    Thank you Dr. Van Horn and Jen for making a terribly difficult time easier and gentle. We are grateful that our beautiful dog was able to spend her last moments comfortable and loved in her own home.
