I'm grateful to practice medicine in an era when this focus is at the forefront of our profession."

"We are delighted to continue our relationship with Assisi. Their dedication to developing innovative, non-pharmaceutical solutions for reducing pain and anxiety aligns perfectly with our mission," explained Randy Valpy, CEO of Fear Free. "Together, we are making significant strides in improving the overall quality of life for pets and their owners."
Larry Heaton CEO of Zomedica, stated, "Veterinarians seeking effective therapeutic solutions that minimize pain and anxiety in pets naturally turn to the Assisi suite of products. The gentle signals generated by the proprietary technology, which can be utilized from the comfort of home, align perfectly with the increasing demand for non-invasive veterinary care."
