Arrived with a friend today, she was concerned about her 17-year-old cat. The doctor was very informative, concerned, and provided sound advice. This was the initial visit for her cat; the pet remained for observation. View on Google (opens in new tab)

What's wrong with it?

I've been taking my fur babies to Dr. Herman for almost 40 years. He is very knowledgeable, professional and compassionate. He has always taken time with us to explain or answer any questions or concerns. NEVER had a bad experience in 40 years. He and his staff are the best. View on Google (opens in new tab)
