I'd been looking for a new veterinarian for a little while. We'd been going to Banfield for a long time, but were frustrated with the turnover in their staff.
I reached out to friends with pets, read through loads of reviews, and checked recommendations on NextDoor. I decided to give the folks at Belvoir Pet Hospital a shot. And could not be happier with them after my first visit.
We arrived and were greeted very warmly by Lauri. There was an emergency situation, so I was told that there might be a bit of a delay, which wasn't a problem at all, as I understand that emergencies happen, especially with regards to animal care.
I settled in and expected to wait for a while, especially since I was a bit early. After a few minutes though, I was brought back to see Dr Farkas rather than Dr Tree.
Dr Farkas was very thorough, very professional, and incredibly sweet with my dog, who tends to get nervous during vet visits. Dr Farkas answered all questions I had and was very, very informative with regards to vaccinations, flea, tick and heartworm preventatives, and dental care. Once Loki was up to date and had his bloodwork done, he was brought back to me by Selina, who was a complete sweetheart.
The checkout process was quick and painless, and Lauri was sure to remind me about procedures for the preventatives that I'd gotten for Loki.
If this visit is any indication of the service that Belvoir Pet Hospital offers, I'm absolutely sure we'll be seeing Dr Farkas and the team here for a very long time!
