Dr. Jack understands pets come in all shapes and sizes. In addition to her cat and dog patients, Dr. Jack is passionate about non-traditional pets. She has over 15 years of experience treating exotics and completed an internship in avian and exotic medicine and surgery at The Ohio State University. Dr. Jack Vet Services offers a concierge house call practice committed to providing quality veterinary medicine in the Los Angeles area.

Dr. Jack will come to your home, perform a thorough examination, and devise a treatment plan for your pet. Most laboratory tests and basic diagnostics can be done in your home. When more extensive testing is needed, such as x-rays and ultrasounds, Dr. Jack can refer you, or even transport your pet to a specialty hospital in the area and work closely with them to keep your pet healthy.

Some procedures can be performed in your home, like small lacerations, wound care, and small mass removals. More extensive procedures can be performed at local hospitals, with state of the art surgical and anesthetic monitoring equipment.

Dr. Michelle Jack grew up surrounded by pets, from cats and birds to lizards and mice.
As a result, she knew from a young age she wanted to be a veterinarian.
She completed her undergraduate training at Mount Holyoke College in Western Massachusetts.
She then obtained her degree in veterinary medicine from The Ohio State University and completed an internship in avian and exotic medicine and surgery.
Once her training was completed, she moved back to her home state of California and began working at VCA Wilshire Animal Hospital in Santa Monica.
Dr. Jack is excited to be able to bring veterinary medicine into the comfort of your own home.

You won't have to worry about waiting for a veterinarian while your pet continues to get more and more stressed.
It is easier to evaluate your pets in their home environment because they are more relaxed.
Bloodwork results will be more accurate without the effects of stress and raised cortisol levels.

Cryosurgery, or cryotherapy, is a procedure that involves extreme cold being applied to destroy abnormal or diseased tissue.
The surgery is not invasive, virtually painless, and now offered by some veterinarians.
Doctors have been using "liquid air" to treat skin conditions throughout the 20th century, which eventually led to various methods of cryosurgery that have been proven and refined.
The procedure has been used to treat a broad range of conditions in both people and animals.
Cryosurgery provides a quick and highly effective solution for removing small masses and treating abnormal hair growth.
However, most cytology exams are done on lumps.
Typically Dr. Jack uses a needle to get a sample of the cells, which she then places, on the microscope.
This can be quite informative, telling her what types of cells (normal cells, fat cells, or cancerous cells) are there.
This can be quite diagnostic.
Dr. Jack also runs cytology tests on fluids if your pets have fluid in the abdomen or chest.
She also routinely checks cytologies of your pets' lymph nodes if they are enlarged, which can be a sign of cancer.
