I have a senior cat with complex liver-gallbladder-pancreas-intestine problems. I sought care at the clinic upon recommendation from my primary veterinarian. I brought my boy Lou in and he received the royal treatment - exam, labs, ultrasound - Dr. Guma took the time to explain the results and develop a plan of care as we navigate long-term management of his issues.

When I went to reception and explained my cat's problem, the receptionist called a nurse, who came out quickly. They took my cat to the emergency room and gave him initial treatment.

Their customer service actually exceeded my expectations. My pet was seen immediately, the doctor was very thorough and explained our options. They also kept excellent records and forwarded them to my pet's primary veterinarian. Outstanding!

Dr. Harrison has been a wonderful help with our Cooper, who has liver storage disease. He has shown great improvement under her excellent care!

I’ve been to D&C three times for emergencies (two of them in the same day). I can’t recommend these guys enough! The staff is caring and knowledgeable. They really do ensure that education is happening throughout the visit. The facility is clean and well maintained. If they offered regular vet services they would be my pets primary care team hands down.
Business response:
