Best

I love this place ! I have taken all my animals here including my snake and bearded dragon. Dr. Stetz was more than friendly with me and very helpful with addressing the problems ...

Worst

This place is UNBELIEVABLY unprofessional, lazy, and devoid of any care for the animals or humans that have somehow sustained this business over the years. Long story short, this...

I don't know if there is such a thing as veterinary malpractice, 8/28/2007

but if there is, this is the practice I would sue. And I know of at least 5 other pet-owners in the area who feel the same way. In early May 2006, when my 8-year-old, high-energy Portuguese Water Dog suddenly became noticeably lethargic, lost his appetite and wasn't able to stand, I took him to Narberth Vets. After examination and bloodwork, Dr. Stetz determined that he had hemolytic enemia caused by Lyme Disease and started him on antibiotics and steroids. We returned every few days for more than 2 weeks for follow-up bloodwork and exams, but he did not seem to be improving even with changes to his antibiotic. After more than 3 weeks of no significant improvement, I decided to take him to U of Penn Veterinary Clinic where they told me he had advanced cancer with masses in most of his internal organs. There was nothing that could be done to save him. Without invasive biopsies, the vets could only guess that he had hemangiosarcoma as it is known to be extremely common in this breed. Non more

Narberth Animal Hospital not a kennel facility 4/13/2007

For over 40 plus years I have heard the caged dogs barking non-stop while shopping next door to the so called hospital. I have heard horror storied my entire life about that place. They kennel dogs. I was told by an owner of a dog kennelled there that she could not pick her dog up on the scheduled pick up day. Owner went there to find her dog so heavly sedated she had to carry him out. Too small a facility for kenneling. Why can't the Township of Lower Merion or the SPCA investigate. Please don't take you dogs there for kennelling. I'm pegging you not to. Maybe Dr. D. Hyde a former vet that worked there can be interviewed to find out what goes on there. He now works at 610 525-5041. Maybe the 3 local t.v. stations can investigage. Maybe someone can once and for all shut that place down. more

DO NOT BRING YOUR ANIMAL HERE 8/16/2006

I recently brought my 6 month old English bulldog puppy (the love of my life) to Narberth Animal Hospital. We dropped him off in the morning for a routine nuturing procedure. I received a phone call later that day that my dog was dead. Dr. Stetz had no explanation as to why it happened. It was obvious that it was neglect on her part. If you love your animals PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not let her near him/her. -Amanda PROS: CONS: neglectful and cold-hearted vet more

If you care about your pets, do NOT take them here 3/27/2006

The head vet, Dr. Stetz, either did not recognize the dire situation of my cat, or simply neglected to tell me. My cat died a day and a half later when I brought her into the UPenn vet hospital, too late to save her. Her death was completely preventable, if I had known about the serious condition she was in and had brought her to UPenn earlier. When confronted, Dr. Stetz was slightly curious, but had no other reaction, and was unwilling to consider the possibility that she might have mishandled the situation. Please don't let this happen to you or the animals you love. more

Good care, high price 7/12/2005

I went here back when I had a cat. It is not the nicest looking place, either on the outside or the inside, but the staff there is really good. The care that the animals get seems to be frist rate. The price is the only downside. In the couple times that I have been able to compare this place to others, it has alwasy come out to cost more (probably due to its Main Line location). Regardless, if you love your pets, then price is never an issue and this animal hospital will serve you well. PROS: Good care CONS: Price, and atmosphere more

Expensive! 5/17/2005

To be fair, this vet is located on the Main Line so you would expect it to be a little pricey but from my experience they are toward the high end. The pet care was good though although I did not like how they bring the animal to the back and you have to remain in the waiting area. I prefer vets that do their tests/shots with you in the room because I think it makes it less scary for your pet. more
