I've owed Dr. Paws this review for a while now. We've been taking our dogs and cats there for a few…read moreyears now and the experience has been outstanding. They don't oversell like another vet office in the area we tried. They actually evaluate your situation and make the appropriate recommendations. None of their employees have ever been afraid of our pit bulls, which is another issue we had at, yet another, vet office. Dr. Wendi is our primary and I couldn't be any happier. Dr Sperling has only seen us on occasion, typically "emergency" type visits, but our experience with her has also been fantastic. I'm still convinced her "hunch" of curiosity saved my cats life. I'd confidently say the entire package couldn't be better. The experience of friendliness is consistent with whoever you speak to from the minute you walk in until you leave.

I just moved into town from the west coast and needed a vet for my sick cat. I called them to see…read moreif they're accepting new patients. The woman who answered the call was rude. She said they weren't accepting new patients and hung up the phone on me. How do you turn away a sick cat? I find it really hard to believe they won awards. I've only been in town for a few weeks and find it very difficult establishing a new vet for my pets. Either they're not accepting new patients, not open on weekends, or don't allow walk ins (which is just crazy to me). I never had this problem in my last state I lived in. PA needs to do better with animal healthcare.

The Throop Location. My dog was in critical condition. He…read morecouldn't urinate for four days due to cancer masses putting pressure on his bladder. I brought him in the morning for treatment or euthanasia, they recommended euthanasia. I prepaid for the appointment (which was later in the day). Prior to the morning appointment, I requested a muzzle because my dog was snappy, he snapped at me in the morning, I wanted to make sure the staff would be safe while examining him. They were aware that he snapped at me, since I was adamant about getting a muzzle. When we came for the euthanasia, with my two sons and husband, they went through their checklist. I again shared he snapped at me, then all of a sudden they demanded he is tested for rabies. For those of you who don't know how animals are tested for rabies, they must examine the brain. When asked how much does he weigh, I responded 80 lbs, they coldly said in front of my boys 'we have to take his head off and send it'. WHAT!? Are you kidding me?! And the worse part? I had to pay for it. I opted for us to bring his body home for home burial, but now I have to choose to have his body returned decapitated or pay for cremation. All for a snap that didn't break skin. The only time I was spoken to with tenderness or compassion is when they asked for payment. I am so saddened, angry, and appalled that despite me sharing the entire day that we needed a muzzle to ensure safety of staff because he had snapped at me, when it came to the very last minute and I was deep in grief I was blindsided by this. Try consoling a 12 year old who literally grew up with his dog that we can't bring him home to bury. Explain what the 'doctor' meant when he said 'we have to take his head off'. They made a hard day infinitely harder. Do better, Throop location. Remember that we are paying YOU for a a service, you aren't doing anything as a favor or for free. Now I have to live with the knowledge that my beautiful boy will be returned to us incomplete. Without his beautiful head. By far the worst experience of my entire life.

She truly cares for all her patients and has a wonderful demeanor, always answers any questions and spends time with you while you're there to make sure your pets are doing well.

I would recommend this animal hospital to anyone looking for a new vet.

This is one of the most compassionate veterinary care facility I have ever encountered. They,…read moreunlike the other places I have used, are focused on care instead of profit. My beloved cat was treated with the love he deserved. His doctor spent a great deal of her time trying to diagnose and treat him. The cost was affordable but unfortunately he had a terminal disease. He was given medication to prolong his life and we were able to keep him longer than we would have without this care. I was able to afford this care because the price was reasonable. After he died I called to cancel his upcoming appointment and the person who took the call was genuinely upset. His doctor called directly afterwards to express her condolences. I would never take any fur babies anywhere else.

He finally restarted but his breathing was so shallow I could barely feel his abdomen rise and fall. He was weak and went limp. I called in a panic and was told at 7:35pm that they had their full complement of animals for the night and I had to go elsewhere. They gave me the number for a place an hour away. I said HE'S NOT BREATHING! He can't survive an hour. The guy told me he was sorry. End of call. This is the second time I've called. Same response each time. Maybe they don't really treat emergencies? If you turn away a beloved dog to die, you shouldn't be practicing. Two strikes...you won't ever get a third call.
