Preventive care

We appreciated the expert care given to our dog Sally. It was great to be able to stay with our dog as she was being examined and tested. Everything was explained well and we felt confident about Sally's care, going forward. All were professional and also warm and engaging. We could not have asked for better.

We were waiting on follow-up instructions from the cardiologist. Not only did I have to actively seek them out, but it felt as though the doctor was annoyed to have to give them to us. Telling me to refer to outpatient records I already had. She must have forgotten that she instructed us to have a chest x-ray completed and that she would review. We are attempting to make sure it is safe for our pet to be put under anesthesia. I have a very hard time with an establishment that treats our pets and is rude or unable to follow-through with the adults. It makes me question how you are with my pet when I am not in the room. I do not recommend this practice if this is standard operating behavior. They have a long list of ways to treat their staff and demand kindness; however, there is no reciprocal practice in place. Disgusted.

Just bought my cat, Tagg in for a checkup/evaluation. Dr. Sharpe, Katie and the rest of the staff at CVCA are amazing. They are very professional, take the time to answer all your questions and make you feel at ease. I highly recommend CVCA for your pets cardiac care.

Dr. Sharpe was great to work with, she was very gentle with my cat and took great care of her. Between Dr. Sharpe and the RVT Heather everything was explained very well and I left feeling better than I went in. They were not only professional but also kind and caring towards my cat. The level of service they offered left me satisfied and reassured about Maggie's well-being. My positive experience with CVCA speaks volumes about their commitment to pet care. Thank you!

Staff member Faith was wonderful taking care of my baby Faith. She was kind and efficient and made us feel calm. Dr Stone was also great. Very gentle and thoughtful and gave us answers that day. Over all my experience was a 10 , even though my baby has to have surgery. Everything will be fine I know !
