I feel like they cost less - cat people weigh in. Anyway, after annoying my dog by playing in his mouth as I do on the daily I noticed he had a purple tooth. Bottom right canine to be exact. After spending 30 seconds on Google that told me it's either a little harmful to instant and painful death, I called the regular vet panicked. He told me it will either self-heal (unlikely), need to be sealed (more likely), or require a root canal (start selling your kidneys to finance this immediately). They referred me to this wonderful place. I waited about a week for an appointment - not terrible considering my dog was carrying on as usual - albeit with a cyberpunk front tooth. I opted for same day procedure appt which basically meant I was on the hook for whatever financial disaster came my way. But YOLO amirite. This place was wonderful!! The doctor got right down on the floor with my dog (why don't general vets do this btw), examined him, took me through the likely possibilities. Then they drew up a treatment plan based on the possible scenarios and sent me on my way for the day while they took care of Wes. The good news - it looks like for now the tooth self-healed but we're monitoring it. Could just be too early to tell. The price for sleepy meds, imaging, exams, and tooth cleaning was right on the low end of the pricing I was given. Truth be told there was nothing "low" about the price. THAT SAID, that's pet life and I signed up for it so it's all good. I love the care that Wesley received here and the way staff made me as a pet parent feel comfortable and empowered through my decision-making. Other than his early exam room piddle (let he who hath not peed on the floor out of nervousness cast the first diaper), Wes was super relaxed and at ease. Bottom line: prices are in line with the level of care. And they take Care Credit - so 0% interest your way to Mt Laurel and get those teeth taken care of!

This was, hands down, the best experience I have ever had with a vet service. My dog just needed a regular cleaning and I love my regular vet, but I wanted more eyes on my dog when he was having his teeth cleaned under anesthesia. I feel like anesthesia is a seperate specialty and to ask the doctor performing the cleaning to be responsible for the anesthesia is alot. The care my dog received was second to none. He was treated like a prince, with special care, and they actually calmed my nerves as well, which is not easy to do. Contact was constant from them before and after the procedure and I felt like they actually loved their jobs, from the front desk to the post op instructions. Worth every penny!

Dr. Russell, Nurse Shannon, and the entire team at VEG Northern Liberties were absolutely amazing…read more From the moment Stella and I walked through the door, we were warmly greeted and immediately assisted. We were taken directly into the treatment area, where I was able to stay right beside my fur baby. They checked her vital signs, made sure I knew where the restroom was, and even showed me the complimentary snacks and beverages. We didn't have to wait long before Dr. Russell came over, listened carefully as I explained why we were there, and thoroughly evaluated Stella. He quickly identified what was causing her pain and explained everything clearly. Stella received pain medication by injection, and we were sent home with additional medication to keep her comfortable. When it was time for Stella's injection, my sweet girl became a little grouchy. The team handled her with such patience and compassion, moving us into a private room so they could safely care for her away from the open treatment area. That thoughtful accommodation meant so much to me. We arrived at approximately 5:30 a.m. and were home within one to two hours. The cost was absolutely worth it to know my baby had been properly evaluated, treated, and relieved of her pain. I would definitely return, although I sincerely hope we never need another emergency visit! Thank you, Dr. Russell, Nurse Shannon, and everyone at VEG Northern Liberties ER. You took wonderful care of my Stella, and I am eternally grateful.

I want to express my deepest gratitude to the entire team at Pennsauken Animal Hospital for the…read morecompassionate care and support you provided during one of the most difficult decisions of my life. I had my dog Kiki since she was a tiny puppy. She was fiercely protective of me, loyal, and incredibly kind in so many ways -- truly one of the best dogs I've ever had. Her aggression started around age 3 and grew over time, especially when she felt jealous. Despite years of trying to manage her behavior, rearranging our home, and attempting to find her a suitable adoptive home, nothing worked. When she nearly bit my infant, I knew I had to prioritize the safety of my wife and two young children. The decision to euthanize Kiki on March 8th was heartbreaking and has left me feeling very low ever since. Your team -- the veterinarian, vet techs, and all the staff -- could not have been more kind and understanding. You sat down with me, listened carefully, and helped me thoughtfully assess the situation and everyone's quality of life. Your empathy during such a painful time meant more than I can say. Today, I opened my mailbox and found the most touching handwritten letter from your hospital, along with Kiki's snout print and paw print. I completely broke down crying with my wife. That small but incredibly meaningful gesture helped release emotions I had been holding in for weeks and is truly helping me through the grieving process. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your professionalism, compassion, and for remembering Kiki so thoughtfully. You are the best veterinary team I could have asked for during this time. I will never forget your kindness. Sincerely, Mark Adsuara

I left a message for the vet and also sent a more in depth e-mail, per the website contact information. I did not expect an immediate response, as the site says the doctor is out and about all day long but does check in several times a day. Nowhere on the site does it indicate house calls are no longer being made. NOWHERE. About 5 hours after I contacted him, he returned my call. That amount of time passing seemed reasonable. He asked me what my question was. HUH?! I briefly described my cat's issue. His response? 'Oh, you need to see a vet.' I asked what HE was if not a vet. The response? 'I no longer do house calls. I hope your cat gets better. Good bye.'

I am relieved, satisfied and pleased to have found this Dr.

Short version of long story I lost my beautiful Cat this past July because the new receptionist refused him an appointment when he had an "Abscess" in his mouth. Pulling out all the stops during "Covid" he was treated elsewhere and was doing well - Antibiotics helped and a new Vet finally took him in Dec. 2020. Unfortunately by then my Cat had too many sedated procedures which put him in Stage 4 Kidney Failure. I am lost without my boy. Stay away from Animal Schoolhouse - A Cat that does not eat or drink for three days is not a priority to the receptionist currently working there.
