Dr. Joy Alleman is an amazing veterinarian who truly cares about her patients and their owners…read more My little girl was having a number of medical issues, and her primary vet suggested I look into acupuncture as a means of helping alleviate some of her symptoms. Joy was very calm and patient with my girl, who was not the easiest patient. Even though we had to put her to sleep a few days later (one of the hardest decisions I have ever had to make), I think that the treatment she received made those days just a little bit more comfortable for her. When I emailed Joy to inform her of the news, she called me a few hours later, which I found to be so incredibly nice of her. She is such a compassionate and caring person. I truly appreciated her taking the time out of her busy schedule to talk to me about losing my girl, who she had only seen once. If your pet needs acupuncture, I highly recommend getting in touch with Joy.

She stepped in for another excellent practitioner who moved out of the area, and of course I hoped for the best. But we did not miss a beat. Dr. Alleman took over doing the acupuncture treatments for an older dog in my care, and I am convinced that these are helping him stay mobile and comfortable. And the dog, who is very wise, loves her (she can't start each session until he covers her face with kisses!). It is obvious that Dr. Alleman truly cares about her patients. And what's more, she is extremely knowledgeable in a broad range of areas, generous with her time and willingness to advise, and simply a very nice person.

Betsy is technically skillful but also extraordinarily compassionate, understanding, soft spoken and gentle toward both our beloved dogs and the family members present for our dogs' final moments, one on a familiar couch and one on the grass in the yard he so enjoyed. She clearly understands and feels the trauma we were feeling and made our pet' s passing as easy as possible. She assisted at every step, and stayed to help until all was done. We are very grateful to her for making these difficult steps less painful. We were so very lucky to find her. She is the best.

I was absolutely devastated…read morehaving to say goodbye to my beloved pet, and instead of compassion, I was met with coldness and dismissal. My dog was 15 miles away and when I asked if there was any way she could help us say goodbye, the vet snapped and said, "That's way out of my way." No empathy. No care. Just a complete lack of humanity in one of the most painful moments of my life. I wasn't asking for a favor--I was trying to give my pet of many years a peaceful, loving goodbye. The response I got made an already heartbreaking situation even worse. She was recommended by a local vet too!!! Horrible.

Last time we took him, he made the vet bleed. Really. He's ordinarily not vicious, but the smell of the other animals freaks him out. This is why we decided to find a vet that made house calls. That and the fact that we couldn't even get him in the carrier (let's face it, he knows where he goes when he gets in the carrier). Dr. Tedaldi was super easy to schedule and the cats didn't even realize he was the vet - score! Snowball got all of his shots and had a full exam without even a growl. Yeah, I'm still in shock too. Our other cat, Matt, also didn't growl, but he loves everyone so that doesn't count. It's pricier than our regular vet, but totally worth it especially if you have a pet that gets really stressed or if you have multiple pets that you don't want to all load up and haul to the vet at once.

Dr. Schoenberg provided ideal, attentive care to our beloved 14 year old Jack Russell Terrier, Max…read more We had a different service lined up to help us on Max's final day, and when they canceled only 2 hours before they were due to come, we had the horrific task of having to make multiple phone calls to try to get help. I truly believe we were meant to find Dr. Schoenberg. She came exactly when she said she would. She was calm and caring and able to support us during this very difficult time. She explained things clearly, she handled things beautifully, and was so, so compassionate. I think the thing I noticed most was how she would pick up on the little things - the paw-print art we had on a shelf, that Max had done. The spot on his head that we kissed as we said goodbye. The things we loved about him, the things we said about him - she called attention to those things, and made it clear that this was about Max, and us, and how much we loved him. I recommend Dr. Schoenberg with my whole heart - you will have the best possible care.
