5 stars Janet M Featured review
AVS is really great! We have two elderly cats with advanced health issues and both enjoy excellent quality of life, thanks to the care they receive at AVS. Dr. Wells and Dr. Shields worked together, monitoring my Maine Coon's blood pressure and heart murmur closely to ensure that he would come through his surgery safely and they both followed up with me during his recovery. We continue to see Dr. Wells regularly and are now receiving just the right medications so that both cats had excellent test results at their last visits. Whenever we call or come in, we are greeted cheerfully by Abel and the other front desk staff, even when it is very busy. We appreciate the thorough and careful guidance we have received by phone from Dr. Wells, Whitney and Cassie and we appreciate the front desk staff for relaying our messages and assisting to ensure that we receive our food and medications timely.
