I took my two cats here on 7/21 of this year, they were just going for their annual with vaccines. My one cat had a urinary blockage February of 2025, so I told Dr. Smiley I wanted to get him on prescription c/d food for urinary care to help him. Dr. Smiley said to me "He doesn't need that, he seems to be doing great." Yeah well I had to put my cat down 3 weeks later because he had another urinary blockage. This may have been prevented or not as big of a problem if I would've just got the food I knew my cat needed and the doctor said no. Also I work as a vet tech for another hospital so I know what I'm talking about, I wasn't asking for something random that he didn't need. Also I talked to the vet I work at about this and they were surprised because typically if a cat has a urinary blockage they immediately get put on the prescription c/d food. So thank Dr. Smiley, I will never see you again.

They forced me to switch to prescription food he hated, and guess what? He kept vomiting. I brought him back, and suddenly they find masses in his belly.

This is beyond unacceptable. Horrible and I'll never forgive them.

She did end up passing a week later. Staff and the doctor were nice UNTIL I needed them to be compassionate the most. Staff had told me the soonest they could get my hamster in when she was being extremely lethargic following surgery and stopped moving. They told me she would be okay to wait. The day that she passed I called, worried, because of a noise she was making while I was holding her. The receptionist was very rude to me. I was holding my hamster for her last breaths and got a snappy response from the person I talked to when asking if what I saw happening was an emergency and if I should get her somewhere before her scheduled appointment. Not okay at all. I'm sorry to all of the others I see had this kind of experience. It's really messed up.

He had severe pain with arthritis in his paw. Took him there to end his suffering and couldn't get in with my vet. The entire time 2 dogs were fighting, barking and being screamed at to "shut up" while my poor cat was terrified and dying not being able to go in peace. He was not even there the day I was promised to pick him up and the receptionist was extremely rude when I questioned about it. If you love your pets don't go there.

I had my cat spayed here. A friend recommended after her skunk had surgery here as well. In person,…read morethe receptionist was friendly, helpful and accommodating. The vet tech that came out to get my cat was also very friendly and knowledgeable. I was charged a $15 fee because my cat was in heat at the time of her spay, which I think is reasonable. They let me know that when they called to tell me my cat made it out of surgery. The incision was small and appears to have healed well. So I believe the doctor did a very good job. I also opted to have her nails cut while she was under anesthesia. They did a very good job with that too. They do send your pet home the same day. Just be sure to keep an eye on your animal when you get home. She was pretty much fully over the anesthesia upon leaving, and we were told to give her additional pain medicine that we purchased at 8pm. That pain medicine made her so tired that she fell asleep with her head in her water bowl. Luckily, she was wearing a cone and didn't inhale any water. I do not think this is the fault of the clinic at all. But I just want to warn to keep an eye out after you get home, especially if giving additional pain medicine.

I am beyond disappointed with Gilbertsville Veterinary Hospital and will never return…read more What they did to me is a literal bait and switch -- and I have the proof in writing. They texted me saying they couldn't refill my cats' Chewy prescription food because my cat was overdue for an exam, and that I simply needed to schedule a wellness visit. Nowhere did they indicate they no longer fill digital prescriptions for outside pharmacies. Their exact text: "Good morning! We received your request from Chewy for Leo's urinary diet, however we have to decline it due to Leo being overdue for his exam. There has to be a doctor-client-patient-relationship established within a year to be able to approve this. We would be happy to schedule a wellness visit with you! Please give us a call with any questions and to schedule. Thank you, have a good day!" So, I complied. I scheduled an appointment, spent over $300 for a routine checkup and a couple vaccines, and during the visit they even asked me directly if my cats were on prescription food. I confirmed they were. Yet at NO point did anyone disclose that they had stopped providing digital prescriptions to outside pharmacies like Chewy. Instead, I only found out afterward (once they had my money) when Chewy's second request was denied a week later and I was told I'd have to physically pick up a written script or use their in-house pharmacy. That's not miscommunication. That's deliberate, manipulative, and designed to back customers into a corner so they're forced to buy from the hospital's pharmacy. When I expressed my dissatisfaction in response to their email where they once again denied my digital prescription, the only response I got was a canned text saying my written prescriptions were ready for pickup. No apology. No acknowledgment. No accountability. On top of the dishonesty, the staff are cold and unhelpful. This is not just bad customer service, it's unethical business practices. It should be illegal. They took my money under false pretenses and withheld critical information that directly affected my ability to care for my pets. Pet owners deserve transparency, honesty, and compassion. You won't find that here.

For reference, I can't speak to the cost of this vs others, because I have a criteria that supersedes all others... ... my dogs are lunatics. These folks are great with all of them, and I knew they would be, because I grew up with a lunatic dog that filtered us through a bunch of the other vets. The staff here are all excellent with fearful/crazy dogs, full of love for animals, and have taken great care of us for years. For what it's worth, they have bags outside and a nice grassy area where I've collected a lucky stool sample.

So incredibly thankful we found Urgent Vet. From the very first call for help to the compassionate…read morecare we received, I truly can't say enough about the staff. I may sound like a crazy cat lady -- but our Rex was injured and developed an abscess. I did everything I could to keep it clean, but it was getting worse and I was terrified. At 4:30 on a Tuesday night, with limited funds, I started calling everywhere. Urgent Vet was the only place that told me to come right over. I cannot even describe the relief in that moment. They got us in immediately, which meant more than I can express. We still need to follow up with a primary vet since they're urgent care only, but the care we received on Tuesday, February 10th was exceptional. The young tech/veterinary nurse who handled our intake (I'm so sorry I forgot her name!) answered every single "crazy" question with patience, kindness, and zero judgment. The vet came in and explained everything in detail so we fully understood what was happening, what needed to be done, and what to expect next. That reassurance meant the world when we were feeling overwhelmed and scared. And to the techs in the back -- the ones we didn't have the opportunity to thank personally -- thank you for watching over our guy and keeping him safe under sedation. That trust is everything. This morning I woke up to my Rex being loving and affectionate again instead of hiding because he was in pain. Seeing him comfortable and acting like himself again says more than words ever could. When you're worried about your pet, that level of compassion and professionalism makes all the difference. Thank you to the entire team for treating Rex -- and me -- and my daughter with outstanding care. More importantly for your compassion. Forever grateful If you ever find yourself needing urgent care for your four-legged baby, please take them here. I promise you won't regret it. Forever grateful.

Honestly, hands down the worst experience I've ever had at any emergency vet. I went in because my…read moredog had a second seizure (one in Paris and one at home) within a week, due to the stopping of medication. My dog has had a history of seizures, since a puppy and has been diagnosed for that by MULTIPLE vets. I typically take her to BluePearl, but because the aftermath of this seizure was worse than others, I chose to go here because it was 25 minutes closer to me. Keep in mind, I also informed them that she did THROW UP. I explained the situation at hand with the doctor and she was completely and utterly dismissive of the actual issue at hand, because she was convinced it was not a seizure, and "marijuana intake," instead. I told her she typically DOES act like that, AFTER her seizures bc I brought her in 2 hours after the seizure occurred. She still says "doesn't look like a seizure" and proceeded to ask to do a drug test. I agreed, just to prove my point. It came back NEGATIVE lol, not surprised! She was still convinced it was marijuana intake, when I told this woman WE HAVE NO MARIJUANA IN THE HOUSE, but only medical THC tinctures that are kept in a cabinet up and away. I showed this doctor woman a video, of how she acts AFTER her seizures, so she has a better understanding that this is her NORMAL behavior, but she dismissed that as well, saying "it doesn't look like a seizure." LADY??? How many times do I have to explain this is hours AFTER her seizure? They refused to give my dog any treatment for the seizure, due to it "not being a seizure," so they couldn't treat her. They told me her blood pressure was "extremely low" and did nothing about that. They offered fluids and I asked if that will help with her behavior at hand, due to the seizure and was told "no it won't help a seizure. It's to flush marijuana or any toxins out there body." Once again, SHE DIDN'T CONSUME MARIJUANA, SHE HAS EPILEPSY, so I denied the flush because there is nothing to flush out. I paid and left, took her immediately to BluePearl, where it was confirmed, yet AGAIN that it was due to another seizure. BluePearl also informed me that she had an extremely low heart rate, along with a very low body temp, but that her blood pressure was fine. I was given the CORRECT treatment at BluePearl and was able to inject her with seizure medication there (what urgentvet REFUSED). In result, the summary from my visit I received was wrong. I NEVER said "marijuana" was in our household and I actually said the complete opposite of "she was just acting differently than how she normally acts after a seizure." It said in the summary, she did NOT vomit, but I told the doctor 2x that she DID. Also states that, I showed her a video of the seizure, when I've said MANY times, that is the AFTERMATH of the seizure and not the actual seizure itself (in the video). They told me her BLOOD PRESSURE was low, when it was indeed her heart rate and body temp decreasing, while her blood pressure was perfectly fine, thank gosh for BluePearl for confirming. Not sure why the doctor was so ignorant and narrow minded, relaying everything I said completely incorrectly, due to her tunnel vision on the "marijuana intake" theory she had made up for herself. So glad, BluePearl was able to give her the treatment she needed RIGHT away, instead of being left high and dry with no treatment like Urgentvet. Get rid of that one woman doctor because everyone else there is fine!!
