Such a great place to bring your fur baby! The atmosphere and people that work there are fantastic! We had to bring our pup in after 17years of loving him due to old age and things failing so he can go to heaven. Although this was so difficult the nurses, Dr, and receptionists where incredible! They explained everything and every step of the way. They gave us as much time as needed as well to say farewell. Thank you for making this process a bit less complicated Notheast Veterinary Referral Hospital!!
Saturday night, we had the experience no pet parent wants to go through. Coming home after a long day and finding your senior cat on the floor crying , unable to move and drooling at 9 pm. We obviously knew emergency was our only and best option. I can’t say enough great things about Northeastern Veterinary Referral Center. Our experience although terrifying, was greeted by well trained professionals who truly cared to listen even when they had other emergencies going on around them. I felt respected as another professional in the field. From the CSR to the doctor, and the rockstar technician, the hospital was organized, clean, and well staffed!! I’m so happy with their care. If you have an emergency, they are a great option!

I brought my Sphynx cat, CARL in with severe respiratory distress. He spent several days in KITTY ICU with constant oxygen. Dr. Nee and Dr. Mecca worked beyond all expectation. They kept in constant contact with both facts and compassion. As much as we all tried to save him he began to decline. I waited specifically for Dr. Nee when it came time to let Carl go. He made my last moments with Carl peaceful and loving. I also want to thank all the desk staff and technicians that took care of Carl and myself. Every simple kindness from kind words about Carl to supporting him by keeping him fed and cuddled in blankets made me feel at peace while I was apart from him.
I strongly advise pet owners to seek care elsewhere. Northeast Veterinary Referral Hospital provided an unacceptable lack of care and communication following my dog’s surgery. We received zero post-operative follow-up from the surgeon to check on his recovery. Over the subsequent months, as his condition deteriorated, our repeated calls and urgent questions were left unanswered, which ultimately led to a critical emergency. The overall environment felt cold, transactional, and dismissive during an extremely stressful time. We have since switched to Eastern Pennsylvania Veterinary Medical Center in Allentown, where compassion, responsiveness, and patient care are actually prioritized. When your beloved pet's life is on the line, you deserve a medical team that treats them like family not an invoice. I cannot recommend Northeast Veterinary Referral Hospital.

Brought my dog in on a Sunday who was very sick, took 4 hours from start to finish to diagnose her with hemorrhaging gastroenteritis. The doctor (Dick) was nice and explained things thoroughly. Part of my bill was an antibiotic for 10 days and an antinausea for 4- I paid for and received both as part of my $800 bill. 5 days later, my dog was doing much better when I accidentally threw her 5 days of remaining antibiotics in the garbage and couldn't retrieve them. I called Northeast to get a replacement (either called in or to pick up) for the remaining 5 days. They refused. They said they don't refill prescriptions and I would need to call my regular vet. When I tried, my regular vet was on vacation for the week so I couldn't speak to anyone. So, my dog cannot get her pills because they REFUSE to provide 5 more days of pills at my expense. THIS IS NOT AN ANIMAL HOSPITAL THAT ACTUALLY CARES IF THEY ARE OKAY WITH NOT TREATING THE ANIMAL DUE TO A MISTAKE.
