I have two adult dogs, each who have had significant medical issues over the years. Consistently the care at Angell has been top notch. Most recently one of our dogs, a yellow lab, had an acute cardiac and respiratory crisis. We did not think she would make it through. Within a few days of critical care hospitalization, she was stabilized and discharged home. The follow up care with Cardiology has been excellent. Besides positive experiences with Cardiology and Emergency/Critical Care, we've been equally impressed and pleased with Orthopedic Surgery (knee surgery) and Opthamology. I work in healthcare and continue to be amazed at the high quality -- high tech and compassionate -- care given to my pets. I sometimes think the care at Angell is better than the people hospitals in Boston. While it is expensive to provide such thorough and competent care, it's worth the price when I see the benefits in the wellbeing of my canine children.
