Ten years after we first featured St. Francis Pet Care in
The New Barker, the clinic is still filling a need in Gainesville. Once housed in a closet-sized room, it’s now in a brand new free-standing facility. Earlier this year, we visited with the founders, Chris Machen
and Dr. Dale Kaplan-Stein, took a tour and met some of the clinic’s clients. Story and photography by Anna Cooke
