I’d recommend only as an emergency option. Service is slow. My pet was there for over 6 hours for a minor problem that took long to diagnose, however the attending vet called to check on my pet the day after which was very much appreciated. 

Business response:

Charine, thank you for taking the time to provide feedback about your visit and your observations. We are sincerely sorry for your wait time and thank you for your patience as we continue to navigate through the challenges presented by COVID-19.

My poor boy Buzz the miniature schnauzer had a liver tumor the size of a baseball. Thankfully it was successfully removed by the wonderful surgeon there. The staff was amazing and took great care for him while he was hospitalized. Hopefully now he will have a long happy life to spend with his humans and bigger brother Tyson a Pit-bull who was quite concerned about Buzz when he got home. 

Business response:

Lisa, thank you for taking the time to provide feedback about your visit and your observations. We are glad to hear Buzz is on the road to recovery and can continue to have an amazing life with your family and, of course, his big brother Tyson. Thanks for the update.

Working with Dr. Guma was great & she is very caring & knowledgeable. But I will admit its VERY expensive & their hours are very difficult for me since their last appointment is at 2:45.

Brought my little old guy here twice for emergent care. Dr. Gagliardo and staff are the epitome of professional, friendly and compassionate. Everything was communicated clearly and in advance. The recommended course of action, with all options, was clearly explained and I was kept abreast of my pet’s status. I would never want to have to have my pup treated in another emergent situation, but if I do, I know that he will be in great hands with Dogs and Cats Veterinary Referral & ER.

Louiseza, thank you for taking the time to provide feedback about your visit and your observations. We are glad to hear Dr. Gagliardo and our team were professional, friendly, and compassionate. We are truly passionate about what we do, which is why your feedback is so valuable.

My 13 year old girl, just hasn’t been right. The vet I work for & I have done multiple test, bloodwork, x-rays & other things to try to find the answer. She recommended me have her seen by the neurologist. From scheduling my appointment to talking to Dr. N, everyone was SO nice & polite, so helpful & just overall amazing during this crazy time! If needed, I will be going back in the future & recommending to everyone!! 😁
