Dr. Capuzzi accurately diagnosed and treated our dog with exceptional care. She explained the condition clearly and promptly called in the prescription so we could get it as quickly as possible. In the meantime, she provided helpful guidance on how to manage the condition without worsening it and offered clear instructions on how to maintain our dog’s health after recovery.
