We had a minor emergency with one of our two dogs and Dr. Latawiec fit us in fairly quickly. It turned out the dog needed to be sedated prior to a quick procedure and Dr. L and RVT Carmen took amazing care of my dog and his stressed owner. Lol The vets and all of the staff here are amazing.
My French bulldog recently had surgery at Companion. He is doing well & was taken very good care of. They called to check up on him the next day & took the time to answer all my questions. After the surgery they told me what to expect & what medications to give him & when. I said I should write it all down, & then they handed me a printed sheet of everything I needed to do. And, the prescriptions had clear instructions not only stating when to start them, but also what to do if he didn’t want them that night!
