We have gone here for years. We were sad and a little worried when Dr. Carlburg left but Dr. Rothstein and her team are phenomenal. They are so kind and attentive to the animals and the humans! Our dogs love them!

We had problems finding a Vet. We finally found Dr. Karlstien at the Beltline Animal Hospital and we thought we had finally found the one. BUT he was selling the business! So the Business Sold we thought we were going to have to do the Great Vet Search again. But thank goodness it is another vet with reasonable price and we have a Veterinarian Dr. Rothstein. She is up to date on procedures and technology And I have to mention the vet tech who handles my "big baby" as if Buddy was his own dog.

My dog, Bella, loved the vet and her assistant! They both took their time getting to know Bella and she thoroughly enjoyed the attention she received. I'm not even sure Bella noticed she had a complete wellness check and had her sore paw inspected.

Good vet, always able to get an appointment within a quick timeline when it's been needed. Professional and effective, has always taken good care of my cat. They also have very reasonably-priced boarding services and did a good job when I put him up there for a week while on vacation. Overall, an excellent choice for pet care.
