Customer Reviews
This is the most WONDERFUL vet for my very sweet and very timid rescue dog, Millie. Doctor Hommel is absolutely amazing- so kind, gentle, patient, and knowledgeable, and all of the vet techs and front staff are just so sweet and gentle with handling Millie. I have always gotten appointments the week I called and even magically gotten last-minute, same-day appointments for more urgent situations. The way they prioritize Millie's comfort is so wonderful and heartwarming to see. I am definitely an anxious pet parent and take her to the vet a lot/ask a lot of questions, but they never make me feel like I'm crazy for doing so hahaha. Millie also sees a specialist at Penn and they are amazing with communicating with the specialist regarding things like bloodwork and routine monitoring, etc. Vete
Proceed with caution. I went here because my dog needed some imaging as determined by her primary care. I called around to different vets who would do this for the lowest price because she may need this care for the rest of her life and I need to make it economically feasible. I stated this clearly when making the appointment and was told they would still need to do a wellness appointment to establish care. That was fine to me, but then they used that appointment to try and get me to get a bunch of other services. At the end I was able to push back and leave with just the imaging. I emailed them to ask them to send the images to her PCP and turns out they did an ultrasound and didn’t take any pictures. So I was out if $150 and now have to go through this process again (obviously with anoth
I never write negative reviews, but I've had a few too many negative experiences here. Most recently, I brought my cat in for a sick visit. The vet examined her for all of one minute and determined my cat's pain was dental related and I'd need to get her another dental cleaning. Mind you, she'd had a dental cleaning/extraction 2 months before (at this vet's insistence!). They sent me home with pain killers that most cats get after surgery, and an estimate for a $3k dental cleaning. Nothing about this visit felt right (including when they put me in a very weird position about which bloodwork to order - the standard one, or the one double the cost "that the vet recommends"). So I took my cat to a different vet practice and after a very thorough exam, they determined her pain was a muscle in
I can only speak for Dr Hommel but I am sure all the other docs are similar - she is a gem. She cares so much for the animals. And she manages client (pet owner) sadness and anxiety admirably. I’m incredibly grateful. She’s looked after 6-7 animals of mine over the years, some to their final days. The staff are also so kind about fielding medical questions and requests over emails and phone call and relaying to Dr Hommel to get timely responses - I feel like everyone is taking care of my animals even outside of the appointment.
I cannot recommend this vet office enough! Their office is clean and very efficient which is helpful in getting my pets in and out with minimal stress. Their hours also are so helpful in allowing us to schedule appointments that don't interfere with our work schedules. The office is easily accessible, and I love how quickly we can get medications from the pharmacy if needed. The staff is always thoughtful and responsive. There are always small personal touches that make me feel like they really care for our animals. My cat is typically pretty healthy, but can be quite difficult to handle. Dr. Hommel and the vet techs always do a great job handling her and managing her stress despite her obvious dislike for the vet. Dr. Hommel and the vet techs are always thorough and take their time to a
