Angell at Essex welcomes all pet owners and reserves a portion of appointment times for discounted services. For those interested in discounted services at Angell at Essex, clients must financially qualify by presenting a photo ID and one of the following:

• Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Program card

The person whose name is on the card or documents must be present (i.e., they can’t send a relative or friend). The only exception is a spouse with the same last name and address.
