Team work at its finest. Dr Brenda can handle anything presented her. Dr Emily is doing great! She's learning the ropes. She has had some outrageous situations.

I traveled from New Jersey to Weidman Michigan to see Dr Pol and his family veterinary practice. They are the real deal. Hard work and family values make them a tribute to the human spirit.
