Great place, great doctors (orthopedist and neurologist), great staff, pleasant office, no long wait times, no unnecessary exams, just honest and compassionate people - can only recommend it.

Original review in 4/7/07 oddly disappeared Best was owner of vet called us repeatedly & threaten a lawsuit for writing this 100% truthful review. Here is is again... Our vet closed 10 min prior to Fri PM accident & closed Sat - Easter weekend; FORCED on this vet. Dog admitted @ 6:15p w/paralysis in hind legs Mark McKenzie didn't see us until 7 - "1st come 1st served" NOT by medical condition. Mark NOT surgeon = unable to perform necessary test (mylegram) to determine if surgery needed. Mark told us on-call surgeon Lori Ludwig would do @ 8 next AM (Lori REFUSED to come in or talk to me & when questioned waiting (time of the essence w/spinal cord injury; recovery greater if done w/in 1st 12hrs after accident) Lori told Mark to tell me she is board certified & not me). Called @ 9:10A for results - test not done = Lori NOT in yet! Immediately called other vets & JA SPCA ? ALL advised her actions unacceptable & expressed shock over wait! JA SPCA advised me to call director of N Chuck office & inform of situation. Adrianne Sprovero then called to recant Mark?s conversation w/me Lori would not perform test until she saw dog even though Mark saw the dog and gave her a full report and previously to me this test would be done at 8A Sat. 10A Lori finally called; finally performing test 15 hrs after accident! While test was completed; it was never read by radiologist thus her findings could easily be inaccurate. One vet told us Lori known for her Northeast arrogance; ticked off many other parents & even though I have never been to this other local vet it was he & not the people we pd $2k to that gave us a cell phone # if we had any questions over the holiday weekend plz remember she refused to talk to me and walk me through our concerns. Lori left for the day/weekend w/out so much as a phone call or to relay follow up care for our partially paralyzed dog nothing about how to combat bed sores, options for physical therapy nothing except a bill for $2k!

I cannot say enough about this place. Without it our dog would not have made it. After calling our regular vet when our dog was listless one morning I was told that I would have to wait 5 hours to be seen. I actually told them that I didn't think he would make it and hung up. When I got to the VMC an attendant was actually flagging me down and immediately took the dog from me. We were seen immediately and he was in surgery within the hour. It appears that he ate a sock (unsure when), and did some pretty serious damage. After we brought him home a few days later I had to call the surgeon late one evening. He told me to put him on speaker phone and he would help me with our pet. It had to be 11:00pm. This was one of several calls throughout the week, each time he answered quickly and was incredibly helpful. What a great Vet and what a great place.
