Dr Lang and the entire staff have treated us like a long time client even though we are just here for the summer. They have gone out of their way to accommodate us when appointments were tight. He takes the time to explain everything in detail so we understand. Most recently during the move to another location the entire staff stopped what they were doing to get our results from testing and gave us the much needed antibiotics instead of waiting life the office to reopen in 5 days. If we move back to Connecticut we will certainly have Shoreline be our vet for our French Bull Dog’s.

My new puppy was very sick with vomiting and not eating, so they did a blood glucose and showed me how to feed her with a syringe, and called back the next day to check on her. I called back the next am that she looked worse, and had me come in then directed me to a hospital asap. Their quick responses to my phone calls helped save my puppy’s life!

From the moment I walked in with my three fur children I was greeted with such kindness. I went in for a physical and check up on some of my babies every question that I asked Dr Lang was answered and their staff is incredibly knowledgeable. And loving. This is a place I will be going for the remainder of my puppy's life. Thank you shoreline animal hospital for a wonderful experience.
