We have been with Eastfield Animal Hosp for decades for our new fur babies and for our old fur babies. When it is time for goodbye, they have always been gracious. We just laid to sleep our 15 1/2 year old flame point siamese cat. What a beauty and affectionate purr baby. We will miss him terribly. Thank you, Eastfield People and Dr L, for your kindness expressed toward us and to our Whiley.

After 20 years of going here with our dogs, we had to choose a new vet for our furbabies. Throughout the years we have had Dr. Bob, Dr. Barns...and loved the doctors , techs, and staff. Something changed in the last few years. Such an overturn of staff. We feel the compassion has left the practice. Our girl just had to have major surgery on Oct 7 for a situation that was not being treated correctly and being brushed off as something less . Our girl presented with trouble breathing and with X-rays showed it was pneumothorax. Air between lung and cheast wall. She was put on steroids and antibiotics. 2 weeks later , second xray appt on a Friday, Some improvement. But not great, But talking with the doctor we were spoken to in a very condescending way after asking questions. The steroids made her so restless. I asked the doctor what could we do. Doctor Lazjur asked me, is that ur anxiety or the dogs. She stated our girl could go back to some play and activity. I was appalled by how she spoke to both of us. I spoke to an associate in the waiting area in tears. She asked if we would like nyla to see Dr. Shirtleft for a second opinion. Our appointment was at 5pm on the Monday. At 645pm we were finally seen. Dr. Bob was stumped, he said let me confer with Dr. Lazjur, I will call you tomorrow. No call ever came. Called the next day. We finally got a call at 10pm Wed night. DR. said he think we should call tufts. I was done , our girl was not getting better. On Thursday morning I called tufts. They got nylas reports..they stated she needs to get there ASAP. they did emergency surgery on out girl...she had a piece of a twig in her lung , had to have a lobe of her lung removed. If we didn't trust our gut and went with what Dr. LAZJUR Said ,our baby wouldn't be here with us. This was a horrible experience and it wasn't the first!! But it will be the last!! Nyla is on the mend because of Tufts University in Grafton Mass. She had the best of the best care. Eastfield is not what it used to be. And they are low on staff (vets) and compassion. No one should wait an hour and a half to see a vet when you have an appointment.
