My sweet cat, Delilah, passed away last week, and although it was one of the hardest experiences…read moreI've ever gone through, I am incredibly grateful for the care and compassion we received at this hospital. When I arrived at the ER, Delilah was seen immediately and received medical attention right away. The team worked quickly to stabilize her, and throughout the entire process everyone was kind, respectful, and compassionate. A special thank you to Dr. Henry, who was wonderful during such a difficult time. She was honest, clear, and compassionate when explaining Delilah's condition and prognosis. She gave me her professional assessment while also supporting me through the heartbreaking decision to let Delilah go. Her kindness and empathy meant more to me than I can express. This was my first time visiting this hospital, as I had never needed emergency veterinary care before. Even though the circumstances were overwhelming and emotional, every staff member treated us with care and respect. I would not hesitate to return if I ever needed emergency care for my pets again, and I am even considering transferring the routine care of my other cat to this facility because of the exceptional experience we had and its convenient location close to home. Thank you to everyone who cared for Delilah and helped me through such a difficult goodbye.

Highly recommend this very kind and caring doctor!!

Very upset about a recent experience here. I have taken my cat here for a year and really liked Dr…read moreRoss and his techs. Took my cat there twice recently for a problem. Was contacted by the vet assistant/ "office manager" , Louis, that I had been rude to the receptionist . He was unprofessional and very inapprorpate in how he handled this. He was aggressive, rude and never asked me for my recollection of said two occurrences. Not willing to listen when I tried to ask about it or suggest my rememberence. Was told this was now "in my file", and was basically on probation, like a schoolchild. I was never rude nor did I use profanity, which I was accused of. Don't understand why this happened. I do recall that the receptionist was annoyed that I called to change a "walk in " and I (politely) asked for an appointment. She acted inconvenienced. I still was not unkind. I responded to the office manager that I would find another vet for the future and he said " good". To add further insult, I then received an email that they were "terminating my services , due to inappropriate behavior etc etc". I told them I would not return - why did they need to send that to me ? He needs training regarding the proper way to handle situations like that In the future. I do not recommend their services.

Saying goodbye to my sweet Ollie at 18.5 years old was one of the hardest things I've ever faced…read more The team at Wine Country Veterinary Hospital met me with compassion, patience, and understanding every step of the way. I scheduled and canceled Ollie's euthanasia appointment four different times because I just wasn't ready, and they never once made me feel guilty or pressured. They even allowed me to arrive and then back out when I couldn't go through with it. That level of kindness and humanity is something I will never forget. When the time finally came, they gave Ollie such a peaceful, dignified passing, and gave me the space and support I needed. I also want pet owners to be aware that many veterinary clinics today are owned by VCA Animal Hospitals, which is part of Mars Corp. the same company behind well-known candy brands. Since that corporate takeover, many practices have become more expensive with vets and staff paid commissions on what procedures they sell! Wine Country Veterinary Hospital is independent and not owned by VCA/Mars, and it truly shows not only in their fair pricing, but in the genuine, heartfelt care they give. I am deeply grateful to have found a place that still puts compassion first. Thank you for helping me through one of the most painful moments of my life.

I will definitely be back thank you so much.

But I knew he wasn't fine. He had lost half his body weight! Dr. Engall discovered that he had a B12 deficiency and now, with supplements, he is totally plumping back again. When Dr. Engall was out of the office, Dr. Gessen still called to talk to me about his (much more comprehensive) bloodwork and she was equally wonderful. I appreciated that they didn't make me wait! Dr. Engall also pointed out that his vaguely diagnosed IBD could potentially be small cell lymphoma. After some tests, we were able to definitively confirm his diagnosis and now I know that we are absolutely on the right track with his treatment. He had to go in several times for all day stays for ultrasounds etc. and the techs who took care of him throughout the day were so caring and attentive, I didn't feel nervous leaving him with them. They also checked in the day after every procedure to make sure he had recovered from anesthesia okay. They are super responsive via message which is great since I can't always make a call during business hours when I am working. Overall, I haven't met a person at Northtown who wasn't kind, and I credit them with the most thorough, attentive healthcare my little guy has ever received. Thank you thank you!

It's ok, I should have left after the adenoma removal, and certainly after the brutal blood draw from his jugular vein coupled with the first appearance of ringworm ( not their fault, they say). I believe my elderly, house dog who only goes out to the yard just got a second ringworm infection there, and of course, they deny it. However they can't deny the results of a simple adenoma removal surger, or this swollen julgular vein from a chem panel draw. It got worse, not better, until the vet prescribed antibiotics. Their attitude is 'prove it'. You've been warned.

We've taken him there twice now and I can tell that they really care about animals. Sarina was very kind and friendly and Dr Diehl has such a kind and calm demeanor. Kevin normally is quite nervous being at the vet but when I brought him here he was laying down calmly on the vets table and when Dr Diehl came in he continued to lay calmly on the table. That impressed me. Dr Diehl did a great job on Kevin's teeth. He's recovering well and now has beautiful white teeth. Thank you very much for caring for my boy!
