Pieper saved my beloved dog's life last week. My 12‑year‑old Labrador suffered GDV (bloat) and had…read moreonly hours to live. From the moment we arrived, the team acted with urgency--rushing him for X‑rays within a minute and then immediately sitting down with me to clearly and compassionately explain my options. Yes, surgery is expensive--but that is the reality of emergency medicine, and you cannot fault a hospital for the cost of life‑saving care. The veterinarians at Pieper are among the best in the state, and for me, saving my dog's life was worth every penny. When you bring an animal into your life, you make a commitment to care for them, regardless of the price tag. I would make the same decision again without hesitation. A knowledgeable and deeply compassionate vet carefully walked me through the procedure and risks. Bloodwork and surgery began immediately, and the surgeon followed up with me before scrubbing in and as soon as it was complete. Throughout his stay, the team called multiple times a day--exactly as promised--to keep me updated on his condition. At discharge, another veterinarian patiently reviewed the entire case with me to ensure I felt informed and confident going home. They even brushed his fur during his stay (thank you--he was shedding terribly, blowing his coat, and I hadn't gotten to it yet), a small but meaningful gesture that speaks volumes about their level of care. The front desk staff were incredibly kind, offering comfort and support as I sobbed in distress the night this all happened. I couldn't be more grateful that I brought my dog to Pieper. God forbid I ever face another emergency--but if I do, I would return here in a heartbeat.

It is as much about the personal caring as the skill level these vets have. We have been through some tough issues with our two older girls, but they have had the very best care possible, and they have thrived beyond expectation. Not only are the vets amazing, but every staff person on each team we have known has been caring, kind, knowledgeable and helpful. They have all gone above and beyond.

The front desk staff tend to be rude, uncaring, and unsympathetic. Last year my cat needed to be euthanized so I called in the morning asking that she be euthanized that day. The staff rudely said that they couldn't fit me in and to call an emergency hospital. They were rude and short with me. I had to insist to talk to one of the vets explaining that they always accommodated us with this terrible sad and emotional decision. Finally I was allowed to bring my cat in at the end of the day. My poor cat suffered all day waiting for the procedure. In the past they sympathetically fit me in immediately. I will never forgive the front desk people on how rudely they treated me and made my cat suffer After my current cat dies and if I should get another pet I will find a more caring veterinary clinic

I recently had to take my dog in to be seen and overall the care he and I received was good. I felt…read moremost of the staff we dealt with was friendly and compassionate. While there was quite a wait to be seen, that is to be expected when going to an urgent veterinary hospital. The doctor we saw took the time to talk to me after he was evaluated. I didn't feel rushed and was able to ask questions and feel confident in his diagnosis and treatment plan. They didn't perform unnecessary testing just to raise the price of the bill, which is what has happened to us at other facilities. The technician, Shelby, that took my dog's vitals and preliminary information upon arrival was great. She was friendly, personable and understanding. The first impression is always what sticks with you and gives you an idea of what to expect from the facility. After having a negative first experience at two other facilities, Shelby was a breath of fresh air and gave me peace of mind coming to this facility.

To be able to go to one place and have a Dr for any malady that your pet might have is exceptional. Orthopedics, cardiology, kidneys, urology, various diseases, MRI and X-rays, vision and hearing problems, it's all here under one roof. We had a Neurologist that was terrific, one of the many people we met there. We traveled from our home in VT 200 miles to go there and we would definitely go back. Thank you Piper Olson for being there for our "Fur-babies", Mike & Lois Blackburn

We've been bringing our pets to Powder Ridge Veterinary Hospital for years and have been extremely…read morehappy with the care from Dr. Blaire Michael and her staff. They are compassionate, knowledgeable, efficient, and very reasonably priced. One of our rescue dogs, Fiona, was extremely fearful when we first brought her in and needed to be muzzled for visits. Thanks to the patience and kindness of Dr. Michael and the staff, she now happily walks into the office and no longer needs a muzzle. That alone says so much about how they treat animals. Dr. Michael has helped Fiona through both a rare autoimmune condition and aggressive oral cancer with incredible skill and compassion. We ultimately chose her for Fiona's revision surgery because of the trust we have in her, how comfortable Fiona is with the office and staff, and the much more reasonable pricing compared to the specialty hospital. The surgical results were amazing -- you can barely tell anything was ever done. We trust Powder Ridge completely with our dogs and cat and highly recommend them.

Hello all, just following up on Freckles, who unfortunately had the owner of Powder Ridge Vet…read morehandling my dog in the worst way possible. Basically brought Freckles an 8 year old 2 month rescue dog from Oklahoma. By far, over 55 years, best dog I have ever had. Freckles even had a minor surgery with Dr Albin a few year back. He was great. Had to drug my dog up with 3 meds, upon arrival Freckles was laying on floor of large room placed into. Corrine new of my dog, she was awesome as always, showed compassion. The tech and Dr Micheals, owner and vet came in a disaster took place. Tried placing a muzzle on Freckles, a no no, dog has never been in muzzle for anything. Then tried to surgical collars, one the size for a horse. With Freckles under sedatives, Freckles had nothing to do with all there methods to get 4 shots. I waved the blood test for heartguard. My dog was so stressed, never seen him act this way, and still did not growl or snap, which they lied and said he did. I was there 100 percent of the visit. Well next morning, 330 am, Freckles was paralyzed not only from the medicine directed on the bottle , but could not walk 100%, had no idea what was going on, was having a mental and orthopedic event. Bottom line, rushed him to Pieper Olson, Dr Roy in ER room got Freckles to walk and took blood to check for anything including tick born issues. Said Freckles was one of the easiest dogs ever to secure blood from right rear leg. My cost was $600, absolutely well spent money. Powder Ridge Vet has completely changed for the absolute worst. Even the folks working the front desk seem so stressed, no one smiles. There was a paper jam in the printer, two people kept going back and forth about this, too much paper, not enough paper, one had to win the conversation. Kudos to a young doctor at Pieper DR ROY. Terrific ER doctor and did not prescribe any drugs for Freckles. I never experienced such brutal handling of my dog. I have read many reviews now and have noticed many are going one star. Just wanted folks to understand. Feel free to call me at 860 227 7425 if you would like to discuss true facts, nothing more what took place.
