Front desk girls were amazingly sweet and so welcoming. Vet techs were knowledgeable, efficient and compassionate. The Doctor was able to look at a photo of my cat and determine an urgent need for repair on an abscess and were able to get him in first thing the next morning. I also really appreciated the itemized bill up front to prep me for what the highest potential cost might be ( it ended up being $300 less than the quote). I have been to both the west and east side locations and you can tell they truly care about the work they get to do everyday.

My elderly dog was not himself, not eating. They were able to get him in and treat him at a moments notice prior to the holiday weekend. Was great with him and called a couple days later to see how he was doing. Staff there is always great with him....love this place!

Buddy's vet was the only vet that listened to me about my dog not doing well, he was going down hill fast. Dr. Harper & her team were able to get Milo in the same day, as well as xrays and straight to surgery. Dr. Harper ans her team were extremely accommodating and swift with everything they did. Very informative and saved my dog! I could not thank them enough for the work they did for me ans my dog. We drove an hour & a half to come up to see them, he was running out of time. He's doing great & at home with me. I'd highly recommend putting your pets care and trust into Buddy's Vet!

We moved to Green Bay area last year and at same time we inherited our senior grand dog lab/retriever who was 10, this past February we noticed tumors (cancer) and was referred to Buddy's, it was risky surgery but we went ahead with goal of saving him for our grand kids who live in Germany that would be here in June-July 2022. Chelcy recovered! But the prognosis was not good. Our grand kids reunited with their dog arriving in late June, who have not seen their dog in 14 months, they/we went on to have a special and fun 3 weeks with him. Sadly, 2 days after the kids left last week his health rapidly declined and within a week crossed the rainbow bridge. I can't thank the doctors and staff for all their efforts. They made a miracle happen! I recommend them. 5 stars.
