Fortunately, their owners have the services of Resurgence Veterinary Mobility. Resurgence Veterinary mobility opened its doors back in December. Veterinarian Cara McNamee says she’s grateful for the temporary location she once had on DeKalb Industrial Road, but she’s excited about the new 5,000-ft. sq. grateful for the facility. He stated that many of the services he and his team provide are not available in surrounding areas. (champion)
