Expert Care and Healing for Pets Like Espeon 

Espeon came to MedVet North Shore at just 9 weeks old after his family veterinarian discovered he had a ventral body wall hernia, a condition where tissues bulge through a weakened area of abdominal wall muscles. Dr. Averill surgically repaired Espeon’s hernia, and Espeon received lots of snuggles from our team post-surgery. He’s now made a full recovery and his family is thrilled their little buddy is healthy again!
