Boulevard Veterinary Care

"Very caring staff. I had to put my 7 year old yellow lab down, cancer in stomach. If you think I cried like crazy, the staff cried as well. Even the vet. One of the techs ran out as i was leaving to hug me. I still miss Ruby like all the time but her ending was comforting."

"My first visit there was was very good I brought my dog Jack there because he was very ill, they did blood work on him and then told me he needed a hospital. So I took him to valley Central hospital in Allentown because I have gone there before with one of my previous animals a yellow lab Sundance for he had double ACL surgery on both his legs they did a wonderful job and they were awesome unfortunately I lost my precious for baby Jack that day October 31st 2023 . My second visit to this vet did not go very well when I brought Jack's sister in Jill because she had stopped eating. I filled out the paper on all the things I wanted the vet to check on her the one paw that was hurting her ears she was shaking a lump on her chest and to see if she had a urinary tract infection. Then one of the most friendliest staff members came in went over my paperwork and said the vet be in a few minutes, the vet came in and I spoke with him I told him about her paw and everything else that I had listed on the paper that I wanted checked he didn't check anything not even her paw all he said was I will test her for Lyme's I asked him to also check for diabetes since her brother also had it. And he walked out the door he didn't check anything on my fur baby Jill nothing. So upon check out I get this bill of $276 for blood work and then several different medications. I did not authorize them to do a complete blood panel on her only to check for Lyme's and diabetes so I was very taken back by the bill that I couldn't afford to pay so my friend helped me out to pay it. The medications that were given were for pain gabapentin, a medication to increase her appetite and another medication for pain in her back legs . Why would you give a dog gabapentin when you didn't even check the dog's paw. They said I'd get the test results in an email from the blood work within 24 hours which I did and one thing came back borderline negative so I called up to ask about it and they said I had to bring her back in 2 weeks for another blood draw because they were going to send the results out to a different lab . That morning my friend was checking Jill's paw and noticed that her fifth nail was so curved it was digging into her paw which was what was causing her the pain if the doctor or should I say that would have looked at her paw that day maybe he would have noticed it. But instead he gave me pain medication gabapentin for something that she didn't even need. When I brought Jack in on the first visit they cut his nails and they cut Jill's nails but I guess they forgot to cut her fifth nail on both front paws so that's what was causing the pain . I was very unhappy that the vet did not even examine her on her visit. Then I brought her back in 2 weeks for the other blood draw to be sent to a different lab that came back positive high I asked for the numbers I was told there aren't any numbers for that particular blood work. I asked how could there be no numbers how did they determine borderline negative and then say positive high that has to be a number for them to determine its high I'm told there is number. So now she's on an antibiotic for something I'm not really quite sure that she even has for 30 days. But in order to get this antibiotic I called three times on Saturday and got no return Monday came and still no return so after my friend had knee replacement surgery I drove up there and they were closed it was 3:00 they're supposed to close at 4:00!! Somebody else drove up and got out of their car and went to the door and I said they're closed and she said I spoke to someone earlier and they said they'd be here till 4:00 I told him I had to wait for my husband to bring me here so her and I were talking outside and someone came out from The grooming section and asked if they could help us the other lady said I was here to pick up medication for my dog and they said that they'd be here till 4:00 The grooming lady said they closed early cuz all their afternoon appointments canceled, sounds a little fishy to me. Anyway my opinion of this place have changed"

"I’ve been taking my puppy here since the first week we brought her home at 2 months old and they’ve helped her get to point now of being up to date on all her puppy shots. Everyone is friendly which makes it really easy to come here and not have to dread taking your animal to the vet. Definitely recommend!"

"We’re visiting from out of town and noticed a cut on Oliver’s paw the day we got in. Gwen, Alicia, Jessica, Dr. Spisak (and Brady) were so kind and accommodating to fit us in and provided Oliver with such efficient, clear and compassionate care! You saved our weekend trip away and we’ll never forget it ❤️ thanks for such a hospitable experience in the Poconos! Big kisses from Oliver"

"My very nervous rescue dog had been abused and is very cautious around new people and animals. The staff made sure she was comfortable and calm. She was recently groomed by Laura and as you can tell, she thoroughly enjoyed her spa day."
