Preventive care

This clinic is the best! I took a copy of an X-ray on my Doberman Chloe who was diagnosed with bone cancer. The reception staff was absolutely amazing prior to our visit. Our tech Sammie was awesome and caring in a way I’ve not seen in a long time followed by Dr Courtney who will never know how much I appreciated her care for Chloe who’s a very anxious dog. I have transferred all 3 of my dogs to this animal hospital and have zero regrets! I would definitely recommend this animal hospital ❤️❤️🥰🥰

My sweet kitty passed away unexpectedly this weekend. He has only been to Pennfield for his shots because I just moved here. Everyone there was so in love with my kitty and complimented how soft and sweet he was, he always had that impact on people. When he passed so suddenly, of course my mind was racing about what I did wrong or what I could of done to save him or that it was my fault. We held him until we could bring him in on Monday. We asked that they do an autopsy to see what happened. Dr. Emma called me the VERY next day himself and explained in detail what happened to my baby. He told me that there was nothing that I could of done for him and it was a heart disease that he was born with that wasn’t easily treatable. He reassured me that he was not in pain and made sure he answered any questions that I had. He was very personable and cared so much and remained very professional while I was sobbing over the phone and was deeply sorry that it happened. I am so appreciative of all of the staff and Dr. Emma for caring so much about my boy, even if it was just for 2 visits and a traumatic event for me. They really really care, and I don’t think that I’ve had a vet like that in my life. Thank you Pennfield Animal Hospital for a great experience. I will always recommend you!

Brought my new puppy and had an awesome experience. Found my new vet for sure. Winnie loved it there, no negativity, and they were not pushy at all, let me decide what I wanted.
