Dr. Moulder was assigned our case, and he was thorough and informative. the vet assistant was also incredibly informative. i felt like i was part of the process of diagnosis and treatment. the treatment plan recommended was complete without going overboard. and my dog is already quickly improving. my friend and i did a quick comparison of pricing between Belvedere and her clinic, and we've found them comparable. and they have Saturday appointments!

I chose this Animal health provider when momo was diagnosed with diabetes. We started at Falls road…read moreAnimal Hospital but the prices proved too steep. Then our little momo started to have allergies. It was very frightening and the staff and doctors have been wonderful to us. Unfortunately, we don't have pet insurance so $100 for a few allergy pills to prevent him from scratching his face and biting his paws until he bleeds is what it is. We have always felt MOMO is in good hands here-the doctors have every resource available and seem to be informed of current research. Fortunately, the billing department will consult with you prior to major things (like an overnight stay) so you have an idea of what you're getting into. I could probably find a vet for a little less money but we are very happy and we know to expect the best possible care for our pet and support for us as pawrents.

UPDATE 5/29/2021 I felt the need to update my review. Dr. Y…read morepotentially saved my dogs life. During my dogs yearly bloodwork, some of his levels came back outside of the recommended ranges. Dr. Y suggested doing an ultrasound on his spleen to make sure nothing more serious was occurring. Well, he found a mass on his spleen that was potentially bleeding. I was able to get my dog in for emergency surgery the next day and was able to have his spleen removed BEFORE it ruptured. Dr. Y's thoroughness saved my dog from a potential horrendous emergency situation. I've said below, but he truly cares about the animals. The staff at Padonia is extremely incredible and they always give so much love to my boy. ******************* I moved into the area about 6 months ago and was lucky to find Dr. Youssef at Padonia Veterinary Hospital. He's helped me NUMEROUS times. I rescued a kitten who was misdiagnosed at Banfield Hospital and almost passed away (his weight went from 2.2lbs down to 1.2lbs). Dr. Youssef put him on medication and provided guidance that helped me save this little dude. He's now a healthy, happy, 5mo kitten. If it wasn't for Dr. Youssef, I'm sure he wouldn't have made it. In addition, my 150lb dog has been to Padonia multiple times from limping, to thyroid medication refills, to an ulcer on his eye. Padonia is always there for me. They've fit me in last minute on multiple occasions, they've been available to answer my thousand questions, and they've stuck around late to make sure I had medication. I can't speak highly enough about Padonia. I left an incredible vet and was worried I'd never find the same thing again. I was wrong. Padonia has been beyond incredible. The assistants that work here are incredible, they'll love your animals as much as you do and they'll remember you by name. Their prices are some of the fairest that I've seen. Padonia is also the type of vet that will not ask you to do unnecessary procedures or give your animals unnecessary vaccines/medicine. I'd also like to mention that Padonia has some of the fairest prices that I've seen. I highly recommend Padonia Veterinary Hospital to those of us that love our animals more than we can even explain.

When he needed treatment for an ear infection around the same time he was due for vaccines, they helped me think through a plan to spread out the costs while still making sure he got everything he needed. I've also had a great experience with their pharmacy. The pharmacist was incredibly helpful and informative when we switched one of Max's prescriptions. My only minor inconvenience was that they no longer carry Simparica Trio in-house, but we were able to find an alternative that worked for us. Overall, everyone from the front desk to the veterinary team has been friendly, helpful, and sweet with Max. I'm glad we made the switch!

I should have known better than to give this hospital another try. Unfortunately, I found the staff…read moreto be "fake friendly" and felt that important information was not communicated upfront. I encourage pet parents to explore other veterinary practices where they feel genuinely cared for and where both the pet and the pet parent are treated with compassion and transparency. Paying more does not necessarily mean receiving better service or care. And one more thing: I'm not taking my "friend" to the vet. I'm taking my pet--my fur baby. My baby is not simply my friend; he is family.

If you need more than a vet tech appointment and they are booked, they work with you to at least get you in quickly and have the vet Stop by. Obviously there are limits, but it's wonderful to have a group of professionals who clearly are focused on your dogs health and less concerned about a rigid schedule system. Medication refills are easy and fast. We have had great experiences with them for both routine care and actual illness/surgeries. Parking is easy and plentiful.

Wouldn't recommend this Veterinary Hospital due to very poor in-office communication, and how some…read moremembers of staff seem to be uncomfortable around very sweet and small kittens. See below for details. All records/documents were provided (at the businesses request) in advance of the appointment, the front desk confirmed receipt of the same. We were told that they must review documents before our appointment time, no matter what. At the appointment, tech claimed they didn't receive any documents. I showed proof that this was untrue and had to explain my pets history to the tech. Later, when the veterinarian came into our room, she had not reviewed the history/documents provided nor been updated on anything by the tech. I was then advised to get my kitten a specific treatment and vaccine but I had to remind them she already had it done, which was in the records and history I already gave multiple times by now. If they had treated her without my reminder, my kitten could have become severely sick. Additionally, the staff did not seem concerned with how they physically handled my docile and sweet kitten. At the end of the appointment, there was no advice given for our situation but we were charged $100 to be seen. It was acknowledged that if they had reviewed the documents before the appointment, as they specified they would do, then the appointment was unnecessary. I recognize that there are specific protocols in place to keep staff safe but those protocols were extremely unnecessary in our situation. I wish they were more careful as my kitten was already injured and definitely not a threat in any capacity. Overall, I wish this place had treated us with more empathy and respect. It didn't seem like they cared about my kittens wellbeing and only cared about making some money.

Finding a new vet is something, I believe, no one does half heartedly - you really want to make…read moresure you're selecting someone you can trust. So when I adopted another kitten a month ago, I knew it was time to find a new vet. My other cat, who I adopted during the pandemic, has seen one other vet before and I wasn't a huge fan of them. I selected Light Street solely based off the glowing Yelp reviews. I felt at ease bringing both cats in for check-ups. I was also pleasantly surprised that despite their popularity, Light Street could fit me in within 2 weeks. The service from start to finish was great. They both got shots and the kitten got eye drops for a mild case of conjunctivitis. About a week later (today), I brought my older cat back for another appt because I had a hunch she had a cold or virus of some kind. I was seen the very next day after I called and the vet was quick to listen to my concerns and take her temperature. Lo and behold, she has a fever and was prescribed antibiotics. I am really grateful for Light Street's responsiveness and quick turnaround, especially when my cat's health was of immediate concern. I am also really grateful for their fair pricing. They've been generous with discounts each time I've visited and I've paid half as much as I have at my former vet for the same services. I would recommend Light Street to anyone in the area looking for a trustworthy vet.
