Dr Capuzzi was terrific. Absolutely the best vet appointment I’ve had for either of my dogs, online or in person. So knowledgeable, and nearly instantly identified an issue that three other vets said nothing about. Wow she is good.

Met with Dr.Capuzzi because my cat has a recurring ear infection but really freaks out going to the vet’s office. Dr. Capuzzi was able to do an exam by video & prescribe a med to get rid of the infection. She also gave me helpful advice on how to clean my cat’s ears. Big thank you to Dr. Capuzzi!
