    I recommend this vet. Good energy here.They take time out to get to know you and your pet. The vets are very nice and understanding. They care about your pet. They dont try to force you purchases something that your pet doesn't need. Highly recommended.

    They were awesome! Their Covid-19 protocols were on point and each time my visit was timely and affordable! I'm glad they gave me the option to go inside with my pet, while at the same time making me feel safe.

    I don't often write reviews but I can't possibly say enough good about the wonderful people at VCA Fox Chapel. When my cat needed emergency surgery, they were the only non-emergency (read, the only affordable) vet in town who would see him in a reasonable time frame. After that surgery, they have been with us every step of the way in my kitty's recovery. I must have called 5 times a day the first several days, unsure if the complications warrented a visit or not. It would have been easy for them to tell me to come in every time just make more money off me, but they were very diligent at working with me over the phone to assess the situation and only have me come in when actually necesary. On one particular follow up visit, one of the younger female vet techs (I am so sorry I didn't get her name so I could thank her personally) actually paid for our care out of her own pocket. I was absolutely stunned and moved to tears. Her kindness will never be forgotten. These are a wonderful group of people and I would highly recommend taking your pet there. They will be in great hands!

    He kept saying my dog was going to bite him, yes I have a pitbull, no he was not even barking at the vet. The worst my dog could do is lick you to death.
