We were offered a 1:45 appointment for my pet and after driving 50 miles, getting caught in…read moretraffic, and having a five minute misguidance from a GPS, we arrived to find two smug, unconcerned, and carefree front desk employees sitting there, alert, un-busy, and seemingly amused without any sense of empathy or compassion, calmly telling me that it was '1:56 and you are late.' "Do you want to reschedule ? " There was, at most, one (1) car in the parking lot and an absolutely quiet waiting rooms d office. I drive 50 miles and took one hour and 40 minutes of my time for this experience as an established customer for being eleven (11) minutes late with a silent office and waiting toom. There was no offer from the front desk to talk with the veterinarian in the office. I hope that the veterinary office or the veterinarian will contact me with an apology. We shall see if they do. It will be hard to come back to this office with my pets, seen there before, without hearing from them about this.

You hope you never need an emergency vet, but you can count on Hershey Animal Emergency Center…read more Our little guy is in his final stages, and though we're keeping him comfortable he had a setback over the weekend (blood in the urine) that couldn't wait for our regular vet. Our first stop was at the equally excellent Shores Emergency Vet, who suggested that we might try Hershey due to an expected long wait. We made the trek to Hershey and the experience was wonderful from start to finish. Part of this was luck as we arrived at a quiet time on a Saturday morning. The rest of the experience was a testament to the professionalism and compassion of the entire clinic team. We were greeted by a friendly front desk team, and were soon triaged by a veterinary tech. After a brief wait, a veterinary nurse examined our boy in preparation for the veterinarian's exam. The only time we were separated from our boy was when the nurse took him to another area to collect a urine sample. The treatment team was kind and compassionate and went to great lengths to explain what was happening and discuss a treatment plan. They were understanding and respectful of our wishes to keep our little guy comfortable snd support his remaining quality of life, We are extremely grateful for our experience with Hershey Animal Emergency Center and feel blessed that the team was there for us at a very difficult time.

Upon arrival, front desk staff offered to help clear our car as our dog created a mess during transport. The nurses and doctors were very transparent, thorough, and amazing.

We received updates throughout the night and early morning which kept us calm. Our pup make a full recovery and we were able to bring him home the following day. They made an absolutely miserable experience for us as pleasant as possible. I'd rate them 15 out of 5 stars if I could.

I have long been a fan of Dr Shah and he was my family's long time vet starting when I was just a…read moreteen. I was thrilled when he began practicing in the area again after a few years hiatus. Since he came back he treated both of my cats with expertise and compassion and his diagnosis and treatments were spot on. While most vets try to push expensive testing he was honest with treatment options keeping our budget in mind. Since his return I have found that he isn't quite as hands on as in the past, with his assistants handling situations and doing things he used to do himself. The wait till you're seen also seems lengthier than in the past. But overall we have been very pleased with his services. Recently we had to put our older cat down. We've had her almost two decades and my husband was very upset with the outcome. I admit I was hurt when two weeks later we still didn't receive a sympathy card, which was standard procedure in the past. I was even more hurt when I called to inquire and was told that they didn't put "any animals down" recently, only they did, mine, and I needed to remind them of that. After my call they did send my husband a card which he appreciated but I felt that I shouldn't of had to prompt something they should have done on their own. I'm brushing it off as just an oversight on their end. With that being said the whole experience was very emotional for all of us, my husband mostly, as he was the one at that final appointment. He was undecided on what to do with her remains and they were compassionate and worked with him through that decision. Since we don't plan on getting another animal we probably won't be back. My extended family's pets are still patients, leaving their temporary vet practices when the doctor came back to town. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dr Shah or his staff, or any practice he's a part of, to anyone seeking a reputable, knowledgeable, and sincere veterinarian.

I had to ask the vet techs to test him for FIV/FeLV and to vaccinate him. he had halitosis and some yellow teeth and he never mentioned anything about this. he had ear mites and treated him and cat still has ear mites (and I've been treating him OTC and made him a new vet appt). I literally left the appointment with knowing nothing more about this cat than when I came in. for the best interest of your pets, I'd go to a different vet. I've been a life-long pet owner and this was by far the most disappointing appointment I've had. I felt like my cat was never even seen.

She's always gone above and beyond, in some cases spending her personal time researching difficult symptoms, and helping us meet each animal's medicinal and nutritional needs in a way that supports their long term health. She saved the lives of two of my cats (litter mates) who had struvite crystals, and compassionately helped us let go of two cats whose illnesses were beyond treatment. Most recently, she drove 45 minutes, accompanied by a vet tech, to my home, to gently euthanize my almost 15 year old Australian Shepherd, when his size, and severe arthritis made it impossible to get him into my car. Thanks to Dr. Fracica, his last moments were spent in the home he loved, peaceful, and without stress. I can not recommend her highly enough. She truly loves animals, and it shows in every encounter she has with them. As for the other reviews I've read here, it's difficult to understand criticism from people who haven't followed the recommended treatment plan, or can't put themselves in the place of another client whose pet needs immediate emergency care. Personally, I would appreciate that these cases are triaged based on immediate need, because the next time, it could be MY pet. Seriously, don't hesitate to trust your pet's care to Dr. Fracica. She's the best there is.

She explained the procedure, any associated risks, and all other relevant information. She treated my cat with love and care and kept me informed throughout the surgery.
