We had our first visit with my rescued pup this week. The man on the phone was warm and asked just…read morea few brief questions. They shared an app with me, texted apt reminders, which is super helpful. The people at the front desk were sympathetic to my scared pup. Diane gave me a recommendation for a trainer she knows. (Great rec by the way) My dog is 3 and did not walk on leash. The vet tech was gentle with my pup, and listened carefully and shared with the Vet. The Vet introduced himself and gave valid suggestions, warnings and prescriptions for my special boy. Finally, someone called to let me know the labs were good within one day. Next visit, we go to the hospital a few doors down from the clinic, where we had our first visit. The app that they had me sign up for is pretty user friendly. I do need to figure out how to submit my claim to insurance.

We brought our senior cat there a few times over the last several months but he kept declining! Needless to say we made a tough decision to finally say goodbye to him today! He was over 13 years old yet the vet came in to try and talk us out of it and run more tests??? Are you kidding me? They will never get another penny from us and our pets deserve better than that!

By the comments left here, people either loved or hated with no in between. Personally I would…read morerecommend this particular vet for a number of reasons. The first is they will prioritize the visit schedule and will not make you wait if you pet is on death's door. Some of the other reasons include a thorough and complete exam with options for treatment and concerns discussed along the way. We had an incident with our 10 year old cat and his chronic asthma who was turning blue and couldn't breathe. We called several local vets including one that was new to our area with no luck scheduling an appointment despite the graveness of the situation. Excuses ranged from "you haven't been here in 2 years to no appointments until late next week." Choices beyond Little Egg Harbor are few and far between. As a last resort, we searched google for Animal ER/hospitals and discovered Jersey Shore Veterinary and made the call. After listening to us the response was "bring him right over now". The cat does not travel well so going to Barnegat was a challenge but thankfully a little O2, steroid shot and some loving kindness from the doctor literally saved his life. I see some had bad experiences, passed judgement on staff's outward signs of immaturity, doctor's dismissing input from owners but that was as far from our experience as possible. Going forward, we used the vet several more times and never waited for an appointment more than 24 hours for routine care or an hour or less for urgent/emergency care. The best part they are interested in your animals health and not "upselling" unnecessary procedures and studies. As with most pet owners, the health of one's companion is priority #1 and this office shares that feeling with every pet that comes through their door.

I called the office asking for Dr Carroll to call me so I could know what my next steps should be. The girl said he'd be in later that afternoon. He never called. On Friday the girl called first thing in the morning and asked if he improved. I said no. She said Dr Carroll would call in between visits. I called again later in the day to see if he available and she was condescending saying he'll call when he can. They close at 6pm so I called at 5:50pm to make sure he didn't forget. She calmly said, unfortunately he left already!! My cat was so bad he came out from under the bed once but immediately ran back upstairs under the bed and had stayed there all day! I was furious! I was yelling! She was so condescending and just acted like a victim because I was yelling while never apologizing! I asked for the manager. I was put on hold for 10 minutes and she came back saying the manager left and the owner could call me the next day. I said obviously they don't give a **** about us and we will go elsewhere! I got wonderful help and care at Berkley Vet Center who were compassionate and caring. They didn't have an appointment available but referred me to Garden State Animal Hospital in Toms River. My boy Lou got excellent care and the treatment he needed, and he is doing great today with proper medication! In the future my new vet will be Berkley Vet Center. BTW, I had gone to Barnegat Animal for the last 20 years or so and had never been treated so poorly! Never again!
