Most caring doctor. He knows his craft exceedingly well. On my first day, I came in rather flustered in regards to my pup. And the staff was exceedingly patient with me. Thank you, Doctor Rob, and your staff for the care you've given this family. Thank you so much!!!!!

I am giving this 5star review based on just 2 phone calls I had with Dr. Robb and his team over a 5yr span for our lol guy Enzo the lilac Boston terrier. He has guided me through his puppy year and now our guy will need surgery typical to BOAS bred animals and we are opting for none other than Dr. Robb. We live all the way in Canada 🇨🇦..heres to hoping we can get him over that way to finally see/meet dr. Robb and the crew.🙌🏽 I found him back on 2019 on a you tube post and I knew jusy from hearing that interview that this man is has extreme passion for proper veterinary care..the kind that heals not steals!! Thanks so much for all that you and your team do. 🫶🏽

My little diva had to get her teeth cleaned. I put it off for sometime because I was afraid of her going under anesthesia. Dr Robb and his assistants reassured me they would do their best to take good care of her and that they worked on many older small animals. She made it out from her teeth cleaning and I am so relieved it took her two days to start moving around like herself and her teeth are much whiter!

Dr Robb had been recommended to me by my coworkers and we have been very happy with his care! He takes his time to get to know you and listen. He is passionate about what he does and it shows.

I have nothing but good things to say about this place. Dr. Robb and the staff of Protect the Pets are phenomenal. My cat was experiencing a swollen lip, but since I had only had him for a year and he came to me fully neutered and vaccinated, I had not yet taken him to my vet's office. When I called them, they wouldn't see us on such short notice, and told me I was on my own. Having heard good things about Dr. Robb, I called the office on a whim. Even though I was not a patient, and they had a full schedule, they were able to squeeze me in the same afternoon. Dr. Robb is so kind to both the patients AND their parents, which isn't always the case with veterinarians. He was able to diagnose my cat just by looking at him and took the time to explain what was going on and our options for treatment. Then, to make this happy story even happier, the bill was super reasonable. I'm happy to report that my cat is doing a million times better now. I will definitely be bringing all of my cats to see Dr. Robb from now on!
