THE HOSPITAL'S ORIGIN
Dr. Marano has been passionate about animals since he was a young child and decided in high school that he wanted to dedicate his life to their care and well being. He believes that the most influential force in his life leading him down this path was his mother, who was also his best friend. Dr. Marano's mother (known to everyone as Ma) was an avid animal lover and enthusiast who appreciated the innocence and unconditional love that our pets provide daily. It was their life dream to open a family run veterinary hospital that would try to ensure the well being of these very special rays of light. Unfortunately Dr. Marano's mother has since passed of cancer, but he has vowed to continue to pursue their dream with the opening of Marano Animal Hospital. The hospital will be family run, with his father as practice manager and his wife as assistant manager and receptionist. The hospital will be dedicated to his mother's memory and the initials "MAH" will serve as a reminder of her presence as "MA's Hospital!"
HOSPITAL PHILOSOPHY
Marano Animal Hospital is founded on the principle to provide the highest quality of veterinary medicine on both the medical and personal levels via the utilization of extensive expertise and knowledge, technological advancements, and traditional customer service values and compassion.
