Fortunately, we found Dr. Royster after another area veterinarian practice missed Shadow's (cat) glaring heart condition. Even after moving from Ardmore to Philly, I returned to Dr. Royster's practice having tried local Philly options, because I trust him and his team to provide accurate medical results & solutions. He presents diagnoses and treatment plans both thoroughly and in a manner that is understandable for non-Vet. professionals, like us, and in a compassionate manner.

This review is to enlighten anyone who is considering using Newtown Square Veterinary Hospital in…read moreNewtown square. We started with this practice in March 2022. We have a Pitbull/ Terrier mix who is a rescue and now approximately 4 years old. Annie had a a very tough beginning, having been abandoned at a very young age. She was highly stressed and very anxious. In addition she developed IBD (irritable bowel syndrome) and environmental allergies. In the beginning Annie was treated by this practice for her allergies with topicals, antibiotics and eventually laser therapy treatments. After an extreme case of interdigital cysts we were referred to an outside dermatologist who prescribed an increase dose of steroids with horrible results. Weight loss, muscle mass loss and behavioral changes. NSVH even questioned why this was done. We have paid thousands of dollars to NSVH for overall care, meds, injections, vaccinations and laser therapy. Never ONCE did NSVH address Annie's GI issues but freely gave her anti- nausea injections and meds which became very costly. We made a decision to get Annie to an internist to determine a solution. NSVH was very vocal that they did not agree but wanted us to go to a different dermatologist. Their attitude changed after that and during one of Annie's GI upset exams the owner, Dr. Di Giacomo stated " there is nothing more we can do to help Annie". Our last visit to NSVH for a blood draw was with their tech Brittany. This technician hurt Annie and she winced and yelped. The next week Annie needed another blood draw and Brittany again was the tech. I said to her, " Please be careful because last time you hurt her." Apparently my honesty was not received well and shortly after received an email by Dr. Di Giacomo stating that I accused her tech of "injuring" Annie when in fact I said "she hurt" her. It is also clearly stated in Annie's medical records. In this email she also told us that they were not going to be providing any more vet care and we needed to seek another practice. On NSVH website it touts " fear free" practice and clients are "treated like family". Both statements could not be further from the truth! Since this time we have secured an amazing internist and an exemplary true "fear free" veterinary practice for Annie. They have addressed a diet change, and in addition now have her on daily probiotics. Annie is doing remarkably well! In conclusion, we would hope you would consider using an alternative veterinary practice other than NSVH.

Warning: Do NOT bring your pet to David A. Walker at Gateway Animal Hospital!…read moreI brought my perfectly healthy cat in for a routine rabies vaccine. What happened next was anything but routine. The vet aggressively pushed Q-tips so far into my cat's ear canal that it ruptured her eardrum and caused severe trauma. Within an hour of leaving, my cat was in obvious distress. I rushed her to an emergency veterinary clinic, where she was diagnosed with Horner's Syndrome -- a condition in cats that results from severe neurological or physical trauma. Half of her face was paralyzed for an entire month. Years later, she still has facial twitching. A routine vaccine visit left my cat with permanent damage. Please do your research before trusting this vet with your animal. What should have been a 10-minute appointment turned into a medical emergency and lasting neurological effects for my cat. No pet owner should have to go through this.

This was hands down the worst vet experience of my life. I came in today because my dog was having…read moreintestinal issues. I brought a poop sample to Dr. Stewart and he didn't even use it. Then when I went back to the room he lectured me about my dog's behavior and how I was handling it when the dog was barking from stress. He prescribed some medicine and told me to not feed my dog. My dog continued to be very agitated that afternoon and I had to take him out incredibly frequently. He was acting not like himself and I called the vet again and he said that he didn't consider a dog distressed unless they were actively seizing, bleeding, etc., and told me to take him on a walk. I knew my dog was distressed since he'd never behaved like this in 12 years. I took my dog for a walk and he calmed down but two hours later he was acting distressed again. So I took him for a second walk and he pooped blood. I call the vet immediately and he tells the front desk staff that the office is closing and i should just go to the emergency room. EXTREMELY awful experience. DO NOT go here. Doctor did not take my concerns seriously and my dog may have suffered and still be suffering because of it.
