Pet Clinic

Japanese: ペットクリニック
Pet Clinic
A veterinary hospital that primarily treats animals kept as pets at home. When various animals are kept as pets, if the animal becomes ill, it will be diagnosed and treated by a veterinarian. Animals that are loved and serve as companions in family life are called pets, and are considered by their owners as members of the family. Only veterinarians are authorized to make medical and surgical diagnoses and provide the respective treatment and care for these animals.
