I had a very positive experience at this specialty clinic. The team was extremely attentive and genuinely cared for my dog. They kept me updated every step of the way, explaining the tests, results, and recommended treatments clearly and patiently. Their compassion and professionalism made a stressful situation much easier, and I’m very thankful for the excellent care my dog received

We were traveling from outside the State. Our dog hurt his back jumping down from the hotel room bed. Fortunately ASC was close to our hotel. We brought him in and the staff immediately looked at him. They were all GREAT! Our Vet back home reviewed the paperwork and thought the exam (including radiology) was professional. We would not hesitate to visit ASC again.

Dr McCue is world class. He listens and presents the options with empathy and clarity. So far, the case has gone as predicted. He also follows up and checks in with us after our visit.

Called Dr.Rosen for an Oncology consultation for my dog Lacy last week. The preliminary diagnosis is TCC. Dr. Rosen explained a BRAF test is the confirmation. I shared honestly that I believe in God , know its possible, was praying for a negative test. I dropped off the sample 5/4/26, was advised the results are usually 5 days (5/9/26) she would call when the results were in. Hundreds of dollars for a phone consultation. Yesterday 5/11/26, some flat affect, cold voice called me , she said her name was " Sandra". With ABSOLUTELY ZERO compassion she flatly said the BRAF test is positive. I was stunned, asked a few questions and at the end of the call told her I felt the way she just told me was sh...y. She could have said " we have these socks in a size medium" the same way...The news means my dog most likely will expire in under a year. Today Dr.Rosen called, she said she heard my complaint, that she was too busy to call yesterday. She also had ZERO compassion today. Disappointed not surprised. I wanted to say " I told you how much this meant and what I was hoping, and you push it off to Debbie Downer to call and drop the bomb with her flat sh...y delivery. Thanks, if that's your " assistant " no thanks. I initially thought she walked on water. I will NEVER return or recommend them to anyone. And I'm sure they couldn't less. I'm sure they did me a favor. Kelly Ryan Clifton NJ

Best ER vet experience we have ever had! The staff was efficient and very helpful. Considering we were there in the middle of the night, we couldn’t have asked for better care and support.
