I did a google search for a local animal hospital since i was new in the area. i found a local veterinarian which I trusted my pet to be treated and cared for in a professional matter. my 1 year old cat was being treated for a jammed hip bone and the doctor over dosed him with to much cortisone that ended up few hours later putting my baby in congestive heart failure and ended in death. i tried to contact this vet on his emergency after hour phone line and he wouldnt answer so i had to rush my gasping kitten to another facility where after many X-rays and test showed his heart was going into failure due to the over dose from the original veterinarian. I recently after contacting the Veterinarian Board and many other agencies discovered he has a reputation and history of wrongful treating animals and many ended in injury and death. He waited 24 hours later to return our phone call. He is unprofessional and his history states his negligence. my healthy 1 year old cat would have only been sore with his hip and in time would have healed but due to wrongfully being overly medicated my cat suffered a painful scary death. those who understand will and others who dont understand will never but pets are family and part of my family died that day due to negligence. please dont just google like I did do real research before leaving a local veterinarian treat or serve a death sentence to your pet-part of your family. please and thank you

If I could leave negative stars, I wouldnt hesitate to do so. My cat had been vomiting for two days and we brought him in for an exam. I wasn’t aware that their full exam consisted of taking his temperature and nothing further. When his condition did not improve, we brought him in again two days later and we wound up spending almost $700 before bringing him to another vet for a second opinion. When he was properly examined by the second doctor, he found the problem right away and learned he needed emergency surgery that day. When I went back to the first office to get copies of his records, I was met with rude comments and treated like a child for not bringing him back to them for a third visit. If you care about the well-being of your animal I highly suggest you go to a different vet.

Two years ago my beloved 12 year old Boxer suffered a seizure. Dr. Gad was compassionate and helpful as usual. Nikki never recovered and had to be put to rest. Dr. and Mrs. Gad were kind and compassionate again. Today I was asked to take the 16 year old Cocker Spaniel of a neighbor on her last ride. Poor fellow is on a fixed income and has acquired enormous medical bills. The Gads have been caring for this dog for all its 16 years, and they were kind enough to reduce their rates (already below their competition), and handle the matter in typical humane and compassionate fashion. This is a true "family" practice, with father, mother and children involved. You and your beloved pet(s) deserve this kind of service.

Dr. and Mrs. Gad, Amir and Alyssa and the rest of their family and staff took care of our poor little girl Ginny. Despite their bravest attempts, using their own family dogs as donors, they were unable to help her move forward. She was only 10 weeks and they truly did all they could for her. They are the most compassionate group of family members and workers I have ever had the pleasure of being surrounded by. My wife April and I are forever in debt to them for their attempts to save her. You are all a true blessing and the animal world in Luzerne and Lackawanna County have all been placed in the greatest and kindest of hands. Thank you all so very much from the bottom of our hearts.

I will give 2 stars because when i called over the phone they gave good advice. But when i went in i had to put my 13 year old childhood dog and bestfriend down. I was obviously a wreck and i think they could have been more sympathetic. That dog was my whole life and they would not let me in the room while she died and returned her in a plastic bag. It was a devastating situation for me and i think my girl deserved something alittle more respectful then a garbage bag.
