Dr. Deborah Pakes was really helpful on the assessment and helping me with my dog. As a dog moving from another country, it was exposed to different diseases and I’m now confident on the path I need to take to avoid such episodes

Dr. Pakes was super helpful. When our other vet sent us home with just pain medicine, we were worried since it seemed our cat clearly had an infection. Dr. Pakes was able to talk us through his lethargy and what we need to do. I very much appreciate her and her expertise.
