My small dog was experiencing strange symptoms, panting, sneezing, drooling, could not close his mouth. We were traveling cross country when this started. I saw the review for Tender Hearts on Yelp and called early one morning. They were not open yet but sent me a text asking what my issues were. I explained my situation and within 5 minutes got an answer that the doctor would meet me in 20 minutes at the office. Dr Meduna met me right at 8 am and we went right into an exam room. She did a thorough exam of my little guy, including blood work and an exam of his mouth and esophagus. His WBC was low, but all his other vitals were good. There were no definitive reasons why he was having these symptoms. She discussed all the options with me and we decided on a course of treatment. The whole staff was caring and engaged in the care of my pet. I have had many animals over the years & I am fortunate to have a very competent vet at home. Dr Meduna gave me the same feeling of confidence that I have with my regular vet. I highly recommend the kind, knowledgeable and caring staff at Tender Hearts. I found out later that both Dr Meduna & my regular vets are ISU Veterinary School grads! read more
