Very disappointing . came in with my ferret . first of all its very hard to find a vet who sees ferrets but over there I been told by stuff Dr Foster does work with ferrets. He completely ignored my concerns about my ferrets health ( I was telling him that ferret vomiting sometimes after drinking water) Keep saying "ok ok". After that I asked him if he could recommend any ferret food to me and he said " you can look it up online, any food that specifically made for ferrets is good." duuuh. You feed ferret "ferret food". I asked him if there is any particular brand or anything like this he could reccoment and he said no. Really? I was worried that my ferrets fur has a yellow tint to it and after research I decide to go see doctor. That was one of the main reasons I came to visit Dr Foster. Well thats the answer I got " he looks fine to me . it looks like this is his natural color". I said after I bath him he looks white for day or two and then gets yellow again. I have a white marked ferret. He is support to be white, not yellow. " I dont know why he is yellow, his skin is normal color , so I think he is fine". Said Dr Foster . over all he was keep saying " alright alright" letting me know that we done here. My "consultation " took around 3 minutes. I felt like this doctor knows about ferrts not more than any other person who see ferret at first time in their life. Very upset, still got charged 52$ for "he looks fine feed him a ferret food". And also was confused when before giving him vaccine Dr said hold him like this , and show me with fingers "around ferrets neck" ( like you would hold a dog or a cat) but ferrets would still move if you ll hold his neck like this . you have to hold them different way. I would put 0 stars if I could. I been rushed out of the doctors room. Over all he sound very unprofessional and looks like he did not care at all about any of my concerns. (sorry for bad grammar, guys)

Found this vet on a Cane Corso website that recommended Dr. Foster for ear cropping. The worst vet, staff and facilities ever. Besides smelling like a cat box and having wet and dried puddles of urine on the floor, the desk staff was extremely rude. Any questions were treated with eye rolls and impatience. The wait was an hour past the appt time. My pup was forced to stay overnight (thank goodness I thought to bring him food or they said they wouldnt have fed him) which is unusual and couldnt give a valid reason why beyond they wanted to keep an eye on him. Couldnt or wouldnt explain what they were watching for. Couldnt talk to the vet either because he wasnt even in. When we picked him up we had to demand to see Dr Foster to get our questions answered and even then he kept walking away during our conversation! We had to say wait! and stop! a half dozen times just to keep him there. I dont need a vet that gushes and takes selfies with my dog but I do need a vet that at least takes the amount of time I paid for to answer questions and concerns. A mssg to the front desk ladies - grab a mop and some disinfectant or youre going to get sick working in your cesspool of an office. We will never go back!

Please dont take your dog here for boarding. They are kept in a basement, with no outside exercise. (I took my dog there because I had no where else on short notice and had to leave town for a family emergency.) When I came to pick him up and entered the office there were 4 employees standing at the counter. 2 were on the phone and 2 were just talking. All of them ignored me. A doctor came out and spoke to the 2 not on the phone. He also ignored me. When one of the women on the phone hung up from her call she got into a conversation with the other 3. I had to wait for the last person to finish her call to get noticed. When I asked that my dog be delivered to the side door to avoid any other animas, I got a very sarcastic look around the room claiming there were no other animals around (as if I were hallucinating). The woman who brought my dog was so impatient that he would not sit still for his own leash to be put on, she just gave me theirs. I suppose they are way too busy to truly care for anyones pet. I suggest another place.

A few years ago our 10 year old cat was having problems. Died about 3 years or so now. So this review is old but still gets me to this day. We gave her medicine from this place and the care was fine and she got better for a thyroid problem. Our cat got better and few months later it happened again. We got the same medicine and she got better. Then she took a turn for the worst. We rushed her to the hospital to put her down or to save her. We explained the the receptionist it was an emergency and we think she was dying. The room was packed. She told us to have a seat. We waited a small amount of time about 30 minutes or so and a child wanted to look in her cage. I heard her say to her mom that the cat wasnt moving. We freaked out and saw that she wasnt. We rushed back to our house to see if it was true since no one was helping us there. She passed away. We only hope she passed away in our arms before putting her in the cage to take her to the doctors. Otherwise she died in the cage or possibly at the doctors. I am not going back there again.

I know a lot of people love to rag on veterinarians and this location is no different. I have been going to this veterinary office for several years now for my dog. And yeah it can been hit and miss with the level of service here, but in general i have been satisfied. The desk ladies can sometimes be gruff and not so pleasant. But i havent had any major issues. The waits can be long, so either get their early, before they start seeing patients, or wait for about an hour and a half after they start, usually starts to slow down by then. Prices are reasonable and comparative with the rest of the vets in the immediate area. As for the doctors, they can be hit or miss. However if i were to prefer one, it would be Dr Maskol. Some of the other doctors are hit and miss, but Dr Maskol has always taken the time to listen and do what is necessary for my dog. He has also been one of the more friendlier Dr i have dealt with. I also take my dog grooming here and have been more than satisfied with the results.

The doctors here have absolutely no love for animals and no idea how to be compassionate. They are not knowledgeable and in too much of a rush to explain anything to you. The prices are cheap but in the end youll pay more for a correct diagnosis from another vet... Hopefully it is n time to save your pet. My cat came home sicker after every single visit there and had obvious symptoms for cancer, Dundalk misdiagnosed her with pancreatitis. I took her to a competent vet to have her put down because this place is so worthless, cold, dirty, stressful, and the staff are so sub par at their jobs that they shouldnt be allowed to treat pets. This place needs to be shut down. Their business model is like Wal-Marts, cheap prices while destroying lives.
