A vet in the west of the Island is stepping back from services, saying he can't give his best to pets at the moment.
The owner of Medicor Veterinary Practice in St John's Lukasz Kuberka has announced on Facebook he's temporarily suspending his business.
He says the job is emotionally and mentally demanding, and he wants to regain his focus.
Medicor says any appointments already booked in will be seen, but Lukasz isn't taking new patients at this time.
