Long Island's FIRST & ONLY
Certified Hospice Veterinarian
DR. ALEXIS TISCHLER DVM, CHPV
Please Note: Dr. Alexis practices compassionately and authentically as Long Island's Only Veterinarian with formal training in Home Euthanasia/End-of-Life Veterinary Care (CHPV/CAETA).
As much of the Veterinary World is becoming corporate, Dr. Alexis is proud to remain a Small & Local, Privately Woman-Owned Business created right here on Long Island. This offers your family compassionate and personalized care as opposed to cookie-cutter,
nationwide/corporate euthanasia packages.
She also operates complete alone without the help of an assistant or a technician so that your peaceful at home experience is the least stressful for your pet and as far from a clinical experience as possible.
Due to the fact that she does operate completely alone and spends many hours driving, contacting her by phone is the best way to reach her and to have some of your biggest concerns addressed. ** Dr. Alexis does not offer online booking because she wants to ensure you have all of the caring support and information you need prior to making a difficult decision. You will never have to navigate this decision alone while in her care and you will never have to enter your zip code on this website as she provides the most personal attention and care possible. ** Availability is always provided within the voicemail, but please note that due to unpredictable phone call volumes, availability is also based on the timing and location of previous scheduled appointments throughout Nassau and Suffolk.
Dr. Alexis will contact you as soon as possible and will always offer honest guidance, caring support as well as her next available appointment for your area.
She is honored to be the Small, Personal, Local and Only Certified option for Long Island
Home Euthanasia Services.
Honored to be Long Island's FIRST & ONLY Home Euthanasia Service with care by a Certified End-of-Life Care Veterinarian (DVM, CHPV) - A Caring Veterinarian with Full Training
in Home Euthanasia and End-of-Life Veterinary Care.
Trust the heart of a local, non-corporate/non-chain small business
& the caring hands of an expert & a veterinarian with advanced training in hospice care/at home euthanasia methods and techniques to best care for your family
and your beloved pet during his/her most delicate moment.
*** EUTHANASIA IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PROCESS
YOU AND YOUR BELOVED PET WILL EXPERIENCE TOGETHER... ***

Grief Support
The bond between humans and animals is a strong one, so it's natural to feel devastated and lost when a cherished pet passes away. There is no perfect way to be fully ready to say goodbye. There is also no quick remedy for the sadness that follows this loss. The loss of a pet takes an emotional toll. Dr. Alexis addresses this topic in her self-authored Pet Loss Support Booklet and provides owners with resources for children as well as information on pet grief for other animals in the home. However, she understands that there is a significant healing period that follows each appointment. Below is a list of additional resources that Dr. Alexis believes will be of assistance to you during this devastating time.
