I brought my two senior cats in for bloodwork and an exam. One cat was then diagnosed with…read morehyperthyroidism and put on meds when the bloodwork showed an elevated thyroid level. I then received a call that the bloodwork "may have been mixed up" so bring my one cat back in for a free retest. This test indicated a low thyroid level and was significantly different from the first test with an elevated level. Instead of a vet looking at the 2 bloodtests and seeing they were so different and most likely not my cats bloodwork . I'm contacted by the vet techs and told to continue on the thyroid meds. One vet tech was not aware there was a blood test mix up and one told me when I asked why it seemed like the 2nd test was so different that it was not my cats bloodwork answered me by saying" That's a good question". Then I wonder was my other senior cat bloodtest mixed up as they were done at the same time? Meanwhile I spent $100 on thyroid meds and $520.38 on bloodwork and I still dont know if my cat has hyperthyroidism. because the new bloodwork does not show it. I was offered after complaining another free retest after taking my cats off the meds but honestly I have a very stressed old cat who has already been in for 3 blood tests and a vets office that I'm dealing with techs not the vet. I plan on going elsewhere where I can deal with a vet that can call me, and actually take the time to look at the bloodwork

They are professional, caring, and really good at what they do! Whether a visit is for a checkup, a surgery, or a follow up, the whole staff feels like a part of my extended family. They have always offered many options of care in every situation, and in the difficult times that sick animals had to be put down, they were sensitive, caring, and kind. For a person like me who sees his animals more like "persons" than property, Normanside is a veterinary practice that I am very comfortable with. I'm so glad to have them care for my precious pets.

It looks like a nice place, small as it is, and I'd have loved to try it -- but I guess it's a club, and you and me ain't going to get in it.

Dr. Gwen was very accommodating, very patient, very considerate and extremely compassionate. Our whole family was there to see Kobi off on his final journey, and as sad as it inevitably was, it was also a good thing to see that he was no longer in pain, or confused about where he was. Kobi was blind and deaf, suffered with some level of dementia, and his rear legs would often not work right because of a spinal issue. He was always kind-of high strung, and anxious about going out - especially since he lost his vision last year. Having this done at home was absolutely the right thing for our Kobi, and we very strongly recommend the service that In the Comfort of Home provides. Thank you Dr. Gwen.

Dr. Virginia and Dr. Jarvis were always great with Lexi. The staff is very friendly and caring. The building is also very clean considering it's been open since 1922. If you ever decide to euthanize your pet, I highly recommend doing it here. After your pet is at peace, the staff gives you as much time as you need to grieve as you want. They are also very respectful during this process, too. I highly recommend this vet. Shout out to Albany County Veterinary hospital!
