Dr. Ireland is wonderful compassionate human being as well as a great veterinarian. We will always be greatful for the compassionate care she gave our Sunni girl as well as how she wonderfully treated my son when she allowed him to be with us when it was time for Sunni to cross the rainbow bridge at 15.5 yrs old.
Her actions at that significant moment of our son's and pet's life
told us a lot about her as a human being, Thank you Sally!
