Dr. Capuzzi did great but the connection was terrible. I had more questions but the app only allotted a certain amount of time. Between the 5 or so bad connections and having to get back into app it wasn’t a great experience. Again Dr. Capuzzi did great with the time she had with Nala and I.

Dr. Capuzzi was very detailed and thorough in my appointment. She asked plenty of questions about my pup and provided a lot of helpful insight, which was explained very clearly. I appreciate it and look forward to getting my pup treated. Thank you! 😊
