Care was excellent. I got an appointment for a consult very quickly. Staff was pleasant. Dr L-K explained the surgery and what to expect. I got updates on Molly after surgery. The surgery went well and was given thorough discharge instructions . I don't remember names of all staff I came in contact with, but everyone was very pleasant and efficient. Dr L-K explained everything very well and took time to answer my questions . Quick appointment and scheduling for surgery and care for Molly.

My cat had a heart murmur and my vet recommended this cardiologist over any close to us. We’re happy with the services! We travel 1.5-2 hours to get there and my poor cat takes it like a champ but I do think it’s worth it. The cardiologist herself is AMAZING. She really loves animals and she takes the time to educate us without jargon about my cat’s health problems. One time my cat had a heart episode, I called them, and they fit us in next day which is unheard of at these busy places. The price is moderately high but not nearly as high as I thought it’d be for a cat cardiologist check up. You might be there for a while but they’re super busy every time we’ve gone as it’s also an emergency vet.

Our cat George Clooney had one of his eyes removed due to glaucoma, my husband and I were so nervous for him! The team at Metropolitan Vet took such great care of him and he is healing up great at home. Doctor Spertus absolutely crushed it! George will be back for his annual eye exam.

The staff and doctor's are so kind and caring. They always make me feel that Ziva is truly cared for and that they are explaining things well. We love Dr. Spertus and her team. She really cares about her patients and it shows. Caring staff
