I learned so much from my fish's visit. Getting husbandry advice from a highly trained and educated professional vs a hobbyist on the internet was worth every penny and then some. Dr. Palmeiro took the time to answer all of my questions with great detail. I'm very lucky to have a fish vet within driving distance, this is an amazing resource for fishkeepers who care about their pets and are looking for ways to improve their fishkeeping.

After my second fish (Telescope Eye) showed similar symptoms to the first one (Fantail) that passed away a month prior, I was desperate for an answer because I was unsatisfied with the first diagnoses from a vet located in Philly. I called the Pet Fish Doctor in Reading to schedule an appointment for my dying Telescope. Even though they had no availability at the time, they offered to put me on "standby" in case of any cancellations. Lo and behold, one was available in the afternoon and I was there within an hour. After they took my pet in for diagnose, the vet explained that the rapid deterioration may have been caused by a neurological bacteria - which was not even brought up by the other vet. We discussed type of treatments available and he was frank with us about the success rate for each method. He was also honest with us about not holding any high hopes and informed us about what we should do with other pets sharing the same tank enclosure. The doctor and staff were both respectful and courteous. I felt that Dr. Lopresto was very knowledgeable in a relatively exotic field. Even though my fish didn't survive (I didn't expect it to), I got an answer about what was causing a mass slaughter in my tank which gave me the closure that I needed. The bill that I received was very reasonable and dare I say, a bargain, compared to other bills I've paid for a vet with less aquatic animals knowledge. I would not hesitate to come back to this place again even though it's an hour away for any of my fish care.
