    We've been with SSAH since 2014. Dr. Krishna is wonderful and very caring with animals. They are incredibly careful during COVID (you can't go in the office for the exam) and to manage visits during this time, Dr. Krishna called me before she saw our pets to get an overview of their health, she called me after the visit and she called again after she had the blood work for one of them. This has to be taking a LOT of extra time but at no point did she rush me and answered all of my questions.
