Fear Free Approach

Fear Free is dedicated to alleviating fear, anxiety, and stress in pet patients during all veterinary interactions.

At Atlas Pet Vets, we prioritize the well-being of our patients through a Fear Free approach and are dedicated to providing a stress-free and positive experience for your pets. We understand that a visit to the vet can be anxiety-inducing for animals, so our team has undergone specialized training to create a calm and comfortable environment.

Our certification as a Fear Free Certified Veterinary Practice goes beyond training individual team members; it involves the entire practice adopting a set of rigorous standards designed to minimize stress for pets. To achieve this certification, practices must incorporate Fear Free Level 1 veterinary certification into all staff training and adhere to specific standards based on the type of care they provide. The certification process includes successfully completing an online assessment and an observation of patient handling to ensure that all practices are aligned with Fear Free principles.

From gentle handling techniques to the use of calming pheromones, we strive to minimize fear, anxiety, and stress during every visit. You can trust that your pet’s health and happiness are our top priorities, ensuring a positive and fear-free experience at our hospital.
