We brought our morkie Cupcake for her last round of puppy shots. The nurses were very nice and Dr. Louis N. Gotthelf let us no that it was coming close for here to come in to heat and that it would be a good idea to spayed here.Dr. Maria McCausland did the surgery 1/6/2013 and every thing went well thank you for the information you gave us on how to care for Cupcake.

I have seen him first hand hit some off the pets that come through there and it was very disturbing to watch let alone my children asking me why is that doctor punching my dog he was in pain and tried to bite so aggressive or not he should not do that to our pets. We have paid good money for him but now worry if he has done that to my other babies or someone else's. Looking into it!!!!!!!

I brought my cat in she had milk fever, a calcium deficency because she has a 6 week old litter of kittens and while nursing they took all of her calcium. She had fever of 108 , dr gotthelf brought down her fever with an ice bath and gave her calcium he said she might have brain damage because of the high fever and he wanted to observe her over night. He didnt observe her noone did they left her alone and called me the next day and said she was dead. Then becuase I dont have a checking acct to give them a check to hold until I pay the bill in full they wouldnt give me her body. I gave them 40$ all the money I had to my name and they wouldnt even allow me to see her. I begged I cried and that man was cold and heartless. And worst of all she died all alone and they wont bury her for me even though they wont give her to me. They saud she will be in a cooler until I pay them. My sweet baby will be in a cooler until I can scrape up 300$ to pay for a treatment that didnt work. This is the worst vet ever. He is so cold and heartless he doesnt have any compassion for animals or humans

I don't know about the other vets in the office, but Dr. Louis Gotthelf (the owner), who claims to be a dermatologist, is not a dermatologist. He is not board certified, and he doesn't know what he's talking about. He shouldn't be masquerading as a dermatologist. He's dangerous. Dr. Gotthelf doesn't know the classic symptoms of middle ear infection. Any dermatologist would know this, but maybe one problem (besides his lack of education and experience) is that Dr. Gotthelf also doesn't listen. My dog walked with his neck stiff and low, shook his head when he barked, and stopped mid-yawn like his jaw hurt. This guy blamed it on two or three different things, when, in fact, those are classic symptoms of middle ear pressure. Even humans have these symptoms. The pain radiates into the jaw so you can't open it wide without pain; it hurts to chew, or even swallow; it hurts when you jar your head so you use your neck like a shock absorber to keep your head still; it causes headaches, etc. Middle ear infections don't always affect the semicircular canals, so there aren't any balance problems until it gets so bad it spreads to that mechanism, yet this guy claimed that it wasn't a middle ear infection because there was little or no balance trouble. Maybe since he doesn't know the symptoms of a middle ear infection and lets his patients suffer with it, his patients eventually do get balance problems so in that case I suppose he's right. Dermatologists should recognize middle ear symptoms because skin problems and allergies often cause ear infections. The dermatologist/allergist I brought my dog to in California recognized the symptoms immediately just from my description before she even saw him. That's because she's a real dermatologist, and she listens to her clients. Dr. Gotthelf was so far off the mark with the middle ear infection that I wouldn't trust him with anything else either. He thinks he knows more than he does, and that makes him dangerous.

Groomer is great with the animals and does a great job! The vets are also great! The owner not only knows what hes talking about, he wrote some of the books and discovered some of the treatments vets from all over the U.S. use in their office!
