Unbelievable care. Had gone to a different vet when I moved and they gave me a dramatic surgical opinion on my dog. Took my pet back to Dr. Tassone for a second opinion and not only was it different and more conservative but she is so friendly and caring towards your pet. She is always so calm, caring and Knowledgeable.
Surgery and biopsy went well. Dr and staff called and checked in multiple times. Had very successful and timely follow up surgical visits.

I saw Dr. Norton today for the first time and was very unhappy upon leaving. I wish I would have read the reviews before going. We saw Dr. Fleming previously and he was wonderful so I was hoping the other vets would be as well. My dog is 15 and I was looking for an overall assessment of her health and how to move forward. She is deaf, blind, has trouble getting around and is arthritic. He made me feel terrible for the condition of her teeth. He suggested I put her under and remove them all. When I said I didn't want to do that he asked me to wait a minute and then came back with pliers saying he could remove it with those. Thank God for the vet tech who was kind and encouraging when I chose not to. In the end when I asked him about moving forward and what would happen if we chose to put her down, he was quick to explain without any compassion. He did not even offer a Kleenex as I was clearly upset and tearing up. I went in hoping for some support and expert advice about my elderly dog and left feeling belittled and confused. I will not return to see him and will spend the last part of my dog's life finding a new more compassionate and caring veterinarian.

Dr. Tassone always provides a clear and concise assessment of what is needed for our cat and dog with every visit. Not pushy and allows us to pursue the desired course of action preferred.

It's not what it use to be. The staff is nice but Dr Norton is VERY rude, has no compassion for animals and his bed side manner is awful. He needs to retire. Dr Riffice is ok but a bit inexperience, she'll recommend testing for unrelated issues your pet is there for, resulting in a high vet bill. Dr Tassone is the only doctor I recommend seeing. She's experienced and understanding, and will find a solution without a million tests ran.

Im not one to write reviews but this needs to be said. Dr. Angela Riffice is amazing! Normally when I bring my cat into the vet she is shaking uncontrollably. In her 2nd acupuncture appointment with Dr. Riffice she was resting comfortably and fell a sleep in my arms. I have NEVER seen her this calm while in a vet office. Dr. Riffice took the time to hear all about my cats issues and provided not only western medicine but eastern as well. For those that are skeptical let me tell you the difference has been amazing. My cat has been diagnosed with hypertension and has only about 10% of vision. Since starting her treatments her heart rate has went down and i have noticed a significant response to to light in her pupils. I really cannot say enough good things about Dr. Riffice she is an amazing vet and wonderful person. Your pet is in good hands with this incredible doctor.
My overall experience has been wonderful. The entire staff- front desk and vet techs are so friendly, knowledgeable, and compassionate. They have made a stressful time more manageable.
