Pennsylvania Animal Wellness and Surgery

Dr. Roman and his staff are superb! The TPLO surgery he did on our dog was an absolute success! Can’t thank them enough or give them enough stars!

Very happy to be with this practice! The facility is clean and modern, the access to advanced diagnostics is great and the staff is fantastic. We are crazy cat parents with a clowder of 8, and our 15 y/o male had a sudden decline with his chronic vomiting. Dr. Fowkes is so empathetic, knowledgeable, transparent and thorough with testing. We finally got a diagnosis and treatment plan to manage his symptoms and he's doing so well ❤️‍🩹 They're great for regular well visits, allowing us to bring all 4 1 y/o's together for vaccines/check ups, so no post vet bullying since they all smell the same way 😸 The on-site meds offered are super convenient. A new addition with little backstory was really struggling to integrate, and Dr. Fowkes spent the time to review all the things we had tried and watched a video I had to see what I meant and got our spicy girl started on anti anxiety meds that have been LIFE CHANGING for all of us. My husband's 6 y/o baby girl cat who is never a problem, had a sudden episode and the staff made sure we were seen ASAP. Again, the advanced diagnostics of same day blood work and an X-ray were so reassuring to have. The techs have all been so pleasant and competent, with great patient and communication skills. The front office staff is very helpful, from scheduling to med questions and refills, to checking in and out. The location is very easy to access with plenty of parking and cost is very reasonable and comparable; I have always been well informed about cost estimates for additional services. Can't say thank you enough to Dr. Fowkes and the rest of the team for keeping "the babies" happy and healthy! 💚

UPDATE to my post following their response : So what if I couldn’t find a vet to take my cat that day? She would have died. I’d be the first to understand a phone call to cancel my appointment for a routine visit if it meant saving the life of another pet. I understand not everyone feels that way but I wanted to make it well known this was our experience with your office. I loved PAWS until I called on a Monday morning begging them to perform surgery on my 1 year old cat with a bowel obstruction. The Pittsburgh animal hospital was so overwhelmed with surgery cases that they recommended I call my own vet and transfer her. Pennsylvania Animal Wellness and Surgery said no, they couldn’t. I was heartbroken. They called me a few days later inquiring on the health of my cat. No thanks to them-she’s alive and well. Thankfully I found another emergency vet willing to take her. Needless to say we transferred our care to the best vet ever in North Huntington.

I recently had my Great Dane, Hook, there for an assisted laprascopic gastropexy. The staff was very pleasant and welcoming. Dr. LAMBERSKI was very personable and knowledgeable. Hook walked out of the clinic the same day and was back to his old self the following day. I was glad that my vet recommended PAWS for this procedure.

Like Dr Ashley a lot . Was referred by my friend Amanda. Glad we came. Our 3 dogs are treated well. Prices are a bit higher than other vets we have been too , so I would give them 4-1/2 stars. But otherwise excellent. Weve had two VERY bad experiences with another vet in Greensburg. They did a surgery on him and did not cut out the tumors that were circled on a photo diagram of my dog and described in detail on his surgery sheet. Literally cut him in other places where no tumors existed. And years ago my other dog who lived till 16 was cut open by a vet for a spay. She was already spayed at 6 months old. I think she was 8?? She was only there for a dental cleaning. Horrible. I’m super critical of care we receive now for sure!!
