Wilmot Veterinary Clinic
“Last week, our beloved 13-year-old fur baby passed away. It happened early in the morning, and we thought we could save her. My husband rushed her to Wilmot Vet Clinic as we had recently moved to the area and knew the clinic was nearby, as we pass it every day. We had never been there before, as our regular vet is in Burlington. In that very fragile and scary moment, we knew we had to drive to the nearest clinic and ask for help.
As my husband rushed in, Dr. Robert Lofsky tried to save our baby, but unfortunately, it was too late.
My son and I rushed to the clinic to say our goodbyes. Dr. Robert Lofsky and Timea gave our family a room and allowed us the time we needed to say goodbye to our sweet little Zoe. Even though we had never been to the clinic before and they had none of her medical records, Dr. Lofsky took the time to try to provide us with some answers and comfort by helping us understand what might have happened.
Both Dr. Lofsky and Timea were incredibly compassionate. They never made us feel rushed and simply gave us the space, kindness, and understanding we desperately needed in that moment.
I want to thank them both from the bottom of our hearts because, in one of the most heartbreaking moments of our lives, they provided calm, respect, and the space for our family to share those final precious moments with Zoe.
Thank you for taking my baby in and trying to save her. But most of all, thank you for the compassion you showed our family when we were at our most vulnerable.
Dr. Lofsky, thank you for being the kind of veterinarian who reminds people why this profession matters so much. In a world where so much can feel transactional, your care felt genuine, personal, and deeply rooted in a love for animals. There was something so reassuring and almost old-fashioned about the way you cared for Zoe and our family. You reminded us of the kind of vet who chooses this profession out of a true passion for animals and a desire to help them and the families who love them.
We will never forget the kindness you and Timea showed us that morning. Although Zoe couldn't be saved, you made an incredibly painful experience a little more peaceful, and that means more to us than words can express.
Thank you for treating our sweet girl with care and dignity, even though she was a stranger to your clinic. We will always be grateful that we found our way to you that morning.
Rest peacefully, our sweet Zoe. You were so loved. ❤”
