I want to give our utmost gratitude to the Animal Emergency Room, especially thanks to Allison (front desk) who saw we were upset as we walked in with our Groot, our pittie. He was extremely ill and we were afraid we were losing him. Then our thanks to Dr Botros and his Tech Elizabeth. Really everyone was excellent and they not only treated him medically but they showered him with love. We cannot thank you all enough. I will always recommend you for Emergencies .
We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to Dr. Buck and the entire staff for the outstanding care they provided to our Musa. Their compassion and professionalism transformed what began as a horrific and stressful situation into a much more manageable experience for us. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely comfortable entrusting Musa to their capable hands. Knowing that Dr. Buck and the team possess the experience required to handle life-threatening emergencies gave us immense reassurance during a very difficult time. We will be forever grateful to everyone at the clinic for their dedication and support. The level of care we received deserves much more...read full review
