Veterinarians near Durham

“My pups have been patients at this practice for over 12 years. I do agree with some comments regarding pricing, however, they have always worked well with me to get appointments and in an emergency have been truly responsive. Dr Kumar has put down 3 of my pups when they no longer had a good quality of life and the experience was nothing but wonderful. Calm, caring, spent time with us and then let us sit with Kayla, Pookie and Yodi as long as we wished. I find the level of expertise on the surgical side is also incredible. A new vet was recently hired who I find to be very Simpatico. For those who don't know Spanish, it does not mean sympathetic. It is a term that has no direct translation into English but basically a nice, warm and caring attitude. My Amstaph is on an NSAID that can cause liver issues do I have to do frequent bloodwork which is great because her levels increased and we had to reduce the dosage so as not to cause severe liver damage. I find the front desk staff lovely. The office manager has been at the practice for two decades and has always been very kind and professional in my dealings.“

“The TPLO guide was so much appreciated. It helped me support my dog in her rehab. With the weekly emails and reminders it helped keep both of us on track. Very Grateful for this guide and recommend to everyone that is going through TPLO surgery.“

“Our boy Mr Meow, had to go in for the inevitable procedure to ensure he was going to be happy and healthy for as long as possible. He was neutered last week.

I didn't like the idea at all, nor did he I'm certain. But, the ladies here made me feel at ease.

It wasn't easy for me to walk out the door while he was calling for me, but they did a really great job of assisting me it was normal for me to break down and sigh to the point of ugly crying on my way to the car.
When I called, and texted, and left messages, and called back, they addressed my concerns without making me feel like a hassle, and arranged things so that my schedule didn't miss a beat- I had come down from Plymouth, and that was a concern that they worked closely on with me to avoid problems with.

And now he's doing just perfectly fine a week later he's happy, shiny, and mew.“

“The service was amazing! The staff was professional, kind, and courteous. They proactively helped us with everything we needed and did so with a positive attitude! I highly recommend them.“

“I’ve always had terrific experiences with Dr James and the rest of his team. I’ve had dogs with a variety of medical issues and the consultations are spot-on and thoughtful. I have no reservations recommending this practice to anyone.“

“Powder Ridge has a lovely, caring staff. I come from Bridgeport to get the fine attention that the doctor's show to our fur baby.“

“This veterinary team has been amazing, kind, and compassionate. My dog has struggled with chronic yeast infections for years and we tried everything to help… so many vets… so many meds…Killingworth’s wholistic approach and vast knowledge in various disciplines improved his quality of life ten fold and today we are yeast free.

Today, I called them about my cat. They saw him and only charged me for his antibiotics. They literally gave me their time for free and at the drop of a hat. I couldn’t be more grateful to have found such a wonderful animal hospital, especially one that isn’t trying to push products etc. Thank you for being the best and making the stress of the vet easier.“

“Everyone here is very kind, professional and compassionate. I cannot recommend them highly enough.“

“After today I will not be taking any of my pups anywhere else!!! The experience I had today was phenomenal!!! Dr Guimonod was very kind and caring with my Bruno and Daisy today, Bruno can be kind of mean with his bark but she showed no fear and was able to make the visit go as smooth as possible!!!“

“Such an amazing team, they always make my pups and I feel comfortable. Such a clean office and very quick to answer/respond to any questions!“

“The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and kind. I have never experienced an issue with Dr. Foccacia and any urgent issues
that I encountered with my dog he would be seen the same day. I’ve since moved from Berlin to Newington and Silver Lake Animal Hospital will remain my pups go to veterinary care. They were also very comforting when my Shih-poo passed away recently.“

“I've been taking my animals here for a long time. Everyone treats my dog like he is their dog. He is always so happy to see his people when he goes there. Our dogs have always received top notch care from all the vets here.“

“This was my first time there with my dog Diego. The staff was very kind and professional. Thank you.“

“I’m new to the area so finding a veterinarian for my cat was difficult. Yalesville Did great with my cat which is a big deal because my cat only knows me so she’s Not friendly at all. Yalesville had me give my cat gabapentin the night before and again 2 hours before her appointment to calm her down. This REALLY helped, my cat was way more relaxed and let the veterinarian do everything they needed to do during her checkup including her immunizations.“

“It was a wonderful experience. I greatly appreciated the way they cared for my dog who was having a health issue. She had to stay overnight and I felt the communication was great.“

“Everyone we dealt with was lovely. The kindness of the staff and specialty doctors was comforting.“

“Excellent care and very responsive. I am pet sitting a dog whose vet is out of state. I noticed swelling under his jaw and didn’t want to wait for the owner to come back. This office worked with the primary vet to get his records, saw us same day, followed up the next day, and got him squared away. The vet tech even gave me her personal cell! Highly recommend.“
