Our Four-Legged Teammate with a Big Heart
Finley is more than just a friendly face, he’s a fully certified dog, working alongside us to help patients feel calmer and more at ease.
A Tail-Wagging Welcome for Our Patients
Not a fan of dental visits? You’re not alone, and that’s where Finley comes in. With his gentle nature and warm presence, Finley helps create a more relaxed environment for anyone who might feel nervous about surgery or treatment.
He’s fully certified to detect cortisol, a hormone linked to stress. If your nerves are running high, Finley may just be the first one to notice and the first to offer support (plus a nuzzle or two).
Dogs That Smell Stress And Offer Support
Research shows that some dogs can sense changes in stress hormones like cortisol. It’s how Finley knows when someone might need a little extra comfort, often before we do.
His job? To:
- Ease anxiety before and during treatment
- Help patients feel more at home
- Offer calm companionship
Make tough visits a little more manageable
The Best Listener in the Clinic (And He Never Judges)
Whether he’s greeting patients in the reception area or quietly sitting by someone’s side, he brings a little joy and a lot of comfort to the day.
While Finley may not be present at every appointment, just knowing he’s around can help make your visit feel a bit less clinical and a lot more human.
