Veterinarians near Douglassville

“I originally posted several months ago under my maiden name. Im giving more stars because my dog lucy was well taken care of with her dental health, I loved the vet I saw. They were honest and thorough and the vet was very kind and caring.

The trouble i had was with our senior dog. We brought her in on three separate occasions for blood pressure readings and each time she was reported at 220, on the nose. After the first reading, douglasville had us put Sammy on BP meds. After two weeks on the meds, my husband brought her in and didnt come back with any meaningful information. According to our vet records, her reading that visit was also 220. Sammy was visibly okay at the second reading. But she had been on the BP meds for two weeks and my husband had no idea that her readings had not changed at all.

The final reading was done when our Sam was really starting to decline, and after all those weeks of meds she still had 220 bp reading.

Sammy was hardly functioning after that. I decided to take her off of the BP meds without professional intervention, because she was barely able to walk at this point, and we were readying ourselves for goodbyes. I made the link between the BP meds and her health decline, and I wasnt sure it would solve anything. I just knew i had to try. At the very least, i wanted her to be comfortable.

After taking off the BP meds, we had a single check with our new vet and she read 161-170 (5 readings in one sitting which I was witness to and she was nervous the entire time and shaking in fear by the last reading.) for this reason I truly believe the BP meds were actually causing low blood pressure and we could have lost her. I think you may need some more accurate testing methods, because to have the exact same reading on three separate visits just doesn’t seem feasible, especially given that they were exponentially higher than what she read in the testing I witnessed at our new vet. Mind you, this was a week after we took her off of those BP meds.

Also I’m happy to report that her platelet counts are now normal, as well. I believe the antibiotics you put her own for potential tick borne illness was 100% the right call. I think you just may need some new methods of BP testing because your findings simply don’t equate with her health outcomes from the hypertension treatment and testing results from our new vet. It almost killed her.“

“⭐ 10/10 — Truly Exceptional Care ⭐

I couldn’t thank this place enough. They treated both of my dogs with the utmost care every single visit. The staff and doctors are full of love, patience, and passion for what they do, and it shows in every interaction. Their prices are also very reasonable, which is rare to find these days.

Your fur (or feather!) babies will absolutely be in great hands here. Highly recommend!“

“Took my rescue Senegal parrot Joe there. They were so good with him and had patience. I was very impressed.“

“Pottsgrove Animal Hospital is the best. I love that it is small and private. The staff is so kind, personable and attentive. They know Izzy by name every time we come in and it just makes us feel at home and we know that they care. Izzy is a little anxious but the doc and staff always do a great job with her and make her feel comfortable. They go over everything they are doing in an appointment and they listen to our concerns. I honestly just love the whole staff. Prices are great too.“

“After reading the one star reviews Dr Allen sounds like my kind of doctor and my kind of culture . ?“

“I'm very impressed with doctor Kline. My dog Mia has pretty severe allergies and I'm really struggling to help her. When one medicine didn't work I had to take her back within a couple days and Dr. Kline. Dr. Kline is very easy to talk with and she really listens to your concerns. Very pleased with Exeter veterinary hospital right now.“

“We have had multiple goats fixed by Dr.Dickerson and could not be happier. We also had an issue with a sheep and Dr. Hoshall was wonderful. I much prefer to use a smaller vet like this vs the larger practices like quakertown.“

“We've been taking our dog's here for 16 years. Tonight, we took our dog in, because she has a hematoma on her ear. As always, they treated her very well, they're gentle and all the staff are very nice, and educated. I just realized I've never posted a review, I know finding a good vet is hard so if you need one this is a great place.“
