The next day with overbooked appointments my dog was in pain , tremorning , couldn't breath and was fighting for life . Dr . Ader said she did not know what was happening and did not allow me to be with my beloved pet. She said "your dog does not need visitors " i picked my dog up in a body bag . An elective surgery that Dr Ader recommended and said she would recommended it on her own dog . Dr . Ader would you leave your own dog suffering, tremoring with breathing issues overnight after two incisions with no monitoring? I trusted this person despite of good reviews. She turned out evil .

She met my dog one time once and she killed her , did not disclose all for greed. ! read more

dr Ader has it all; expert knowledge, caring, loving, and gentle. I am very happy I found her to take care of my pugs.

Dr Ader Saved Kings life from Pancreatitis years ago. I think she's like the pinball wizard. She been doing this so long she knows by instinct and years of experience. I still recommend her to this day. Amazing Doctor. Thank you Dr Ader your the best at what you do. Saving animals. Carrie Darling read more

Dr. Ader has saved my Great Dane numerous times. I recommend her to everyone. Her staff are wonderful, helpful, friendly. She is thorough, consistent, does not drain your wallet, listens to your needs and knows what is best for your pet. read more

I have been taking all of my pets to Dr Ader for almost 30 years. I have brought everything from an iguana to a bunny to my dogs and cats. She is the most knowledgeable, compassionate veterinarian. Having been practicing for all these years, Dr Ader has seen it all. She knows her stuff. I trust her 100%. Yes the home where the office is located doesn't look perfect and beautiful. But that's not what you're there for. You're there for experienced expert care. And that's what you will receive. And at a reasonable price. The price is reasonable because the money is not spent on an elaborate office and building. read more

I called because my cat was sick. She was able to see my cat the next day. She got us in quick, she was really good with my cat and her prices are affordable. I highly recommend Dr. Ader. She's wonderful. read more

This vet loves animals with a passion, and will go above and beyond for them. I've been going to her for at least 25 years( but I think more), and she's never failed us! Her office is not state of the art, but her knowledge of animals is definitely superior. I had a cat with kidney issues back in 1996, and we ended up having to give her IV fluids at home pretty much daily. If we ever had problems doing it, she'd come to our house (once in Providence, once in Portsmouth!) and administer the fluids herself! What other vet would do that? I don't know if she still would do house calls, but I'm sure if she could she would! We love her! read more

Ader Patricia Dr - This is Clementine, a patient of Dr. Ader's since 2009 - Veterinarians Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

Dr. Ader is an expert veterinarian in areas of animal medical care and behavioral care (30 yrs plus)) and I've had her care for my pets on and off for many years, each pet receiving top care for all their issues. read more

I honestly cannot say anything more about this caring and wonderful vet, and her staff.. I thought I was going to lose my 15 year old tuxedo kitty After 16 day's in her care, medication and a feeding tube, she has been home for over a week and totally back to herself (eating and drinking on her own) We are so very blessed to have Dr. Ader Oh, she is also VERY reasonable in pricing! Thank you, Kerri Boynton and oreo read more

She is less expensive. Her office is less than clean. My cat did not make it out of here after a kidney issue diagnosis. Long and short. You get what you pay for. If you are looking for cheap, regular vaccinations. Go here. You need critical care? And your sweet kitty girl is your WORLD???? Please go elsewhere. It is one of my biggest recent regrets. read more

Is Dr. Ader's clinic small? Yes. Does Dr. Ader's clinic have all the latest diagnostic equipment and technology? No. Nevertheless, I've been bringing my cats and bunny to Dr. Ader for a decade. Vet prices have skyrocketed over the past 20 years. If you can afford to take your pets to vet clinics that are outfitted with much of the same equipment as human medical clinics, please do. But many pet owners, such as myself, can't afford to spend $500.00+ just to get a diagnosis. For me, and many pet owners like me, there's Dr. Ader. Dr. Ader is an "old time" vet. She makes diagnoses based on her education and decades of experience. Does this mean she *may* misdiagnose an animal's ailment? It never happened with me and my pets, but it probably has with others. I suspect it's a rare occurrence. If you can't afford to take your sick pet to a clinic that has all the bells and whistles, which is better for your pet? Not getting them vet care at all (which may lead to them suffering and dying), or taking them to Dr. Ader - which in most cases will lead to an accurate diagnosis and treatment (with a small chance of misdiagnosis due to lack of the technology needed to run the tests whose results would guarantee the diagnosis is accurate)? I know what choice I've made for the past 10+ years - and will continue to make in the future, as long as Dr. Ader continues to practice. read more

Dr Ader is great..she is not going to kiss your a** for your little insecurity of your pet and your life..she WILL get the proper care done...she is the best around RI..she works with birds..not many of these local lame vets do.. and she is inexpensive..and her heart shows the love to your pet ...not YOU...get over yourself..this is about your pet.... read more

Hello, I've been taking my pets to Dr. Ader for many years. Dr. Ader has been the best to all of my animals. I've never had any problems with her services at all. Thank you for the many years of caring my Dogs. Michael read more

love Dr. Ader! i happened upon her b/c my iguana was sick, and after a bad experience with my dogs vet i decided to bring my dogs to her as well. she is very affordable and she really cares about the animals. she also will not give un-needed meds or shots. she has even helped me out with my foster dogs if i bring them to her. her and her staff know my dogs, and me! the table is quite high for a large dog, but the staff is always willing to help lift or you can just let them do it. they really need to update some of the technical aspects of the office such as obtaining a copy machine and a fax machine, and parking is really bad (but there is an empty lot across the road 30 feet away)... but other then those few downsides this is a GREAT vet. $35 - $37 for a large dog routine exam, not including shots or and meds. read more

The best vet around. Compassionate, affordable, and a well of knowledge. I will not take my pets anywhere else.

Dr Ader's office may not be state of the art but her diagnostic ability and knowledge is far superior of any vet I have been to. She is kind caring and intuitive. Any time I took my cat to an er when she was closed I had a huge bill and no solution. Follow up with dr Ader and she found the issue. That happened twice. I am grateful to her and her staff. She took good care of my cat right till the end of his life. read more

Took my dog here to get her annual exam. On the plus side the people were nice and the price was cheap. However it's in a dilapidated house that's behind a Burger King which makes it hard to find. The parking was dreadful (although there's a lot of empty parking across the street). I think the biggest thing about this place is the filth and after reading other reviews it looks like this has been an ongoing thing. When you walk up to the place there's a lot of crap on the front porch so you don't know where the entrance is. When you walk in the first thing you see is lots of papers stacked everywhere, soda cans and Fritos next to clean needles. Their scale doubles as their exam table. The place is filthy, unorganized, and smelly. I went for the cheap price but won't ever be back. read more

I have to disagree with the other reviewers - I've been to quite a few vets and veterinary offices in my life, and found Dr. Ader's to be filthy and poorly run. I brought 2 cats to her and she didn't seem to have any idea what was wrong with them, didn't recommend any diagnostic options, and seemed to be completely perplexed. I do think her heart is in the right place, and that she fills a need - she is less expensive, and will treat a sick animal without proof of vaccination (or at least she used to). read more

I have taken our dogs to Dr. Ader for many years. She loves animals but it is time for her to retire. The office is in poor shape and on my last visit, the smell of urine was unbearable. I had not been in the office for two years because it was closed for some time and I had gotten my dogs shots at a shot clinic at PetCo. We were there for a check on a hot spot, I wouldn't have let her get any shots or procedures given the state of the office. It has never been a model for how to run a practice but it is beyond safe. read more

I have been going to Dr Ader for about 19 years! I have taken my last 3 dogs to her and trust her immensely! I Have never had a problem with anything she has done!. Her staff Mo, Joel and Ann are also awesome, caring and professional! Her place may not be that great but her care for animals out does that issue! As long as she is practicing I will take my dogs to her. To me she is a true vet!!! read more

Dr. Ader is the soul of animal care services. Her staff works so hard and is supportive of all pets and owners that walk through the door. This place is a bit hard to find, so call for directions. What you will get is a one on one vet visit where you will know for certain the very best, and we mean the very best diagnosis will be given to your pet. The costs are below other area providers, and while it's never about money when dealing with the health of your furry family members, know you will get the best advise, from a woman who honestly has a very special gift for what she does. We love Dr. Ader. read more

I had taken my dog to Dr. Ader because he wasn't acting normal (sad and lethargic) and she told me that he had a stone in his bladder after a series of tests and us insisting that something was wrong. She had us bringing him back and forth and giving us all kinds of medicine and special food to try and dissolve them. Every time we took our dog to her she would either lose the paperwork, think he was a she..it was just a mess. Finally we decided that we would go to a different vet after his urine sample was spilt all over his paperwork and she said it wasn't her fault rather than just apologizing. I believe that she means well and is a good person inside but unfortunately not a good reliable vet. Her office was not clean and she never had the proper tools available to check the dogs. I just want to be honest for pet owners who are looking for the right vet. I hope this helps. read more

This place is small, dirty, smelly and gross! I took my dog there for vaccinations and my dog had a bad reaction to the distemper shot she received! She almost died, couldn't walk, eat, move or lower her head without crying out in pain! This lasted over a week by the way! I called the next day and the office was closed so I took her somewhere else and they were able to help her. When I finally got in touch with Dr. Ader's office, they said that was a normal reaction!!! My dog was 15 at the time of her vaccination and they almost killed her and didn't care at all!! I also paid for a heartworm blood test ( they did draw her blood ) and when I called for the results they told me they ran the wrong test and I would have to bring her back for a heartworm test (which I didn't do there). They DID find out her kidneys were beginning to fail so I took her to a new vet, who is fantastic! I have asked for the bloodwork results from Dr. Ader in person, on the phone, through email and even had the new vet call and request the results, all in vain. They absolutely refuse to send the results to the new vet so we can see the rate of deterioration in her kidneys!!! This is a shoddy place and should be closed immediately!!!! read more

If it was possible to give less than one star, I would. I made an appointment for my Dog after being recommended by a friend. We pulled up at what looked like a hoarder's run down house and I immediately had a bad feeling. I saw 2 small cages outside, no grass and a small parking lot. You couldn't see through the windows as there was junk everywhere. I told my husband to turn around and go home but he convinced me to go in saying it couldn't be that bad. We went up the steps to the door and it was worse. Someone had to move stuff around and shuffle before we could even open the door. We got in a tiny wait room with an overpiled desk, filthy wood floors, and about 4 chairs. There were 3 other dogs waiting in this area. We couldn't tell who worked there so we just sat down. Finally a large disheveled looking woman wearing dirty sweats asked who we were. I explained we had an appointment and it was our first time there. I then looked to my left and saw a dog bring examined in a small room with no door and a whole wall lines with bird cages (no more than 8 feet away from where we were sitting). I have never walked out of anywhere before but there was no way I could trust these people with my dog's care. The entire place was filthy, overcrowded, and completely unprofessional. I don't know how anyone could run any type if business like this, especially one where they were giving medical advice. I don't know how anyone could let their animals go there. I not only felt that it was dirty and unsanitary but worried about catching something. read more

If you haven't been there in a while, its changed. She has a super clean waiting room and the place looks GREAT !!!!! She has done A TON of work and her staff is A +++. Always there to help me and my dog, snakes, and turtle. She is AWESOME. thank you Dr. Ader..... read more

Two yeas ago, I brought my dog to Dr. Ader, at Animal Care Services. My first impression was not good: I had to ask her to clean her "exam table" before placing my pet on it; she kept files on the exam table/scale when weighing my pet; she stabbed her finger extracting blood from my dog's leg, and the building is a dilapidated, unsanitary mess, inside and out. But what clenched it for me was when a friend brought her dog there because the dog's ear tips were black, and when the dog scratched them, pieces would come off. Dr. Ader did not know what to diagnose, ran a blood test and prescribed meds that were useless, presumably for scabies and/or skin allergy. Turns out the dog was suffering from advanced lymphoma, which the ASPCA discovered immediately, with no doubt. The poor dog had to be euthanized then and there. My friend was grief stricken and very unhappy with the lack of diagnostic skill at Dr. Ader's business. Oh--and she "listened" to my dog's heartbeat, amidst squawking parrots, telling me that sometimes, as my breed of canine ages, they are prone to heart problems. This made me nervous enough to not want to trust my dear dog's care to her. Took my pet to N. Kingstown Animal Hospital, where they detected a heart murmur and put her on an inexpensive med for it. I had an echocardiogram done, also. It also turned out that the mysterious external lumps she had were fatty cysts, which Dr. Ader said would have to be sampled when my pet was anesthesized. My new vet (N.K.A.H.), aspirated them and found they were fatty deposits. They could've sent it for a cytology report, but were honest. I will stay with N.K.A.H., where it is clean and the vets and vet techs are competent and caring! read more

Dr Pat Ader is a very smart and caring Vet! She operated on my bird and saved him. Then, brought my dog back from a stroke! That says a lot! I wish I could find a doctor as knowledgeable about humans! donna farrell of Warwick RI read more

Dr Aida has saved my dog and cats life. She is very knowledgeable and professional. The staff is great and very accommodating. Whenever I need to see Dr Aida, I can get in the same day or within 2 days. I highly recommend her! read more

I've taken various much-loved pets to Dr. Ader over many years. Her office is small, but her veterinary knowledge is second to none. She knows her stuff. She saved one of my dogs by an immediate "temporary diagnosis"; she was 99% sure she knew what it was (HGE) and that it was lethal if not treated immediately, if we'd waited for the results to come back from the lab before starting treatment it would have been too late. Apparently HGE can be mistaken for another issue that is not life threatening so immediate action is the difference between life and death. She saved my dog's life. Dr Ader has operated on various animals at least 5 times for a variety of different problems. Each time it is obvious that they have been very well cared for. The stitches are clean and neat, the wounds are well tended and the animals are comfortable. I have also had the sad experience of having to have a pet put to sleep. She made sure we had privacy and was gentle and experienced with both myself and my beloved pet. Honestly, that's what I want from a vet. Someone with tremendous knowledge, not someone who is going to try to sell every procedure that they think they can get away with to support a large practice. If her practice is a little small, so be it. I have every faith in her knowledge and ability to care for my animals and that is the most important thing to me. Thanks Dr. Ader. Judy Chase read more

If I could give 0 stars, I would! Let's begin by me saying, I wouldn't trust my stool sample being tested here!! Dr. Ader's office is filthy, it should be condemned. She is rough. We brought our 20, yes 20 year old INDOOR cat here during his last year of life. We had no prior vet care, he was the king. She was so rough with him, despite us telling her to be careful etc. He scratched and bit with how he was handled, and she demanded that he stay and be quarantined. I had to use the bathroom, there were bloody needles on the ledge of the sink and feces on the floor. Needless to say, we took our boy home, I walked out, and as we were walking out she said "Well if he dies within 2 days, you need to return him so we can dissect his head since he scratched and bit staff". Who says that?! Who disrespects a person and their beloved pet during such a hard time? To boot---she is a filthy scum bag. Her and her staff, as well as the house is like a damn hoarder's episode! I felt so skeevats when I left. I don't know how she continues to be licensed and the Dept of Health has not been involved...or maybe they have? Give it up, Ader! You suck! read more

I've taken my cats to Dr. Ader for years. Yes the office is unkempt; however, she gives excellent care to my pets. I have never had a problem bringing either of my cats here. She truly cares about the animals and she's great at what she does. read more

I've noticed that some people complain about the parking conditions, small waiting area, no computer or fax machine, cluttered office, etc. I'm more concerned about the quality care that my pets get, & they get it from Dr. Ader. You can have the most up to date, modern facility with a big parking lot & waiting room but that doesn't amount to a hill of beans if the people treating your pets aren't the best. Dr. Ader is a true professional, who loves her job & treats both pets & their owners with care & understanding. I couldn't even think of going somewhere else. read more

My heart can't agree more with the first review. The care is outstanding and Dr.Ader is as intuitive with animals as I have ever seen in 35 years of multi pet ownership. Some important considerations are for owners of large pets. Thet lack simple mechanical device to raise a pet to workable level. An uncomfortable lift needs to be done and the staff usually isn't the most physically capable. This is not a reflection of their caring, just an honest observation and important to an animals comfort. Also the ability to contact them for food and refills is extremely limited due to a small staff and not having an answering machine that you can leave such a simple message on. It is 2007, please join us. Again, this is a simple set up with the BEST DOCTOR POSSIBLE for your pet and a staff that actually cares about animals. Other considerations must be made and if you have a pet that is uncomfortable being lifted up, you have to consider alternatives. I want to add that costs are very reasonable and that includes Rx scripts. Your not going to beat the prices and unfortunately that is a factor for most of us. Dr. Ader can't be making any money on these, I've searched everywhere and her prices are the lowest. Now if I could only buy her the electric lift table and hook up an answering machine it would be perfect! read more

I love Dr. Adder! she saved my newfoundland's life a few years back by diagnosing a disease that four other veterinarians failed to pick up. She loves animals...all of them. I watched a little girl bring in her sick hamster...Dr. Adder spent time with her gave her instructions then charged the kid a quarter! If you like paying a lot more for Ho Hum vets with clean floors go ahead. I'm sticking with her ! read more

The smell was so bad and the place so filthy that i had to walk out as soon as i arrived. Absolutely disgusting. Anyone who says otherwise should get their sense of smell and their eyes examined. read more

In the past we have taken two pets to Dr. Ader and found her remarkable she diagnosed our Basset Hound as having a nervous breakdown and she was correct. I also took a cat to her that was told was fixed and when I got the cat she had stitches. My cat started to go into heat to my surprise and what Dr Ader said was that if a sliver of the ovary was left she would go into heat. Imagine our surprise when she called to say that my cat had never been fixed. She was just opened up and restiched up. No her office is not very pretty, But she is an amazing vet!!!!! read more

One is too good for Dr Ader. She completely miss diagnosed my Dog who had a simpled medical procedure which went wrong and my dog died a tragic death. When they released my dog the girl at the the desk wispered to us to bring the dog to a Vet Hospital because something is very wrong - well she was right as my dog collapsed at home and he died at the Hospital. We blame her for his death and she was too busy planing her vacation and not there when we and our pet needed her the most. STAY AWAY YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR read more

Can honestly concur with Dr. Ader's knowledge, however her bedside manner is highly subjective and may be more akin to the tidal pull and full moon. She is lacking in all areas of people skills and has been known to hold animals hostage for hours to assert herself in a power struggle. Caution is also warranted when calling to check on a pet she has inpatient. She is also known to answer her phone and pretend that she isn't in the office -- even when she told you to call at a specified time. If those issues are a mute point for you, then by all means, pay her a visit. read more
