What recent reviews say

Owners consistently report feeling their pets are treated with genuine care and attention by knowledgeable staff across all roles. Dr. Mills and Dr. Erin stand out for taking time to explain options, manage anxious animals calmly, and follow up after appointments including end-of-life care with handwritten notes.

The facility in Central Park draws praise for convenience and beauty. One negative interaction with a particular doctor described rapid speech and rudeness when asked to communicate more clearly, though most recent visits highlight improved service. The hospital responds quickly to urgent calls and coordinates earlier slots when pets need extra time.
