Norman B Guilloud, DVMConsulting and Attending Veterinarian

”Thank you so much for all your help and expertise in the AAALAC accreditation process.

The application you prepared for us was very professional and detailed. If you did not prepare the application for us it would not have been done in time for our site visit this year. I appreciate all your suggestions and help you offered for our program.

I think we all worked together to get it done. I hope your consulting business keeps growing and growing! Please let me know if I can be of any help in the future.”
