My one cat has gone blind in both eyes, first in one eye (extremely high pressure, lens luxation, inflammation and lesion), then the other. Dr Crumley and his technicians have taken good care of my cat to try to save his sight, but couldn't. One of the technicians admits, my cat is one of her favorites and when she sees him on the schedule, she says she'll handle his appointment. That just gives me added comfort that he gets good care.

I began with Dr. Conway when my very senior cat was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. She took time to explain the procedure, what to expect after, and all as she sat on the floor making my scared feline less so. Over the next 2 years, as Tina the Cat developed advanced kidney disease and then neurological symptoms, everyone I encountered was caring and thoughtful. Dr. Conway and neurologist Dr. Kaiman always took time to explain what was going on, helped me understand the treatments, worked with me on costs, and gave my Tina extended quality of life. At the sad end, they also showed so much compassion. I highly recommend this practice.

VRA was referred to us by our regular veterinarian to help diagnose a puzzling array of issues. Yes, this place can be very expensive. However, tell them what your constraints are up front and they will do their very best to work with you to create a course of treatment within those parameters. They are terrific.
