I had a recent emergency with my beloved Australian Shepherd on March 17, 2012. I did not have a local veterinarian and drove to the nearest to my home clinic which was open on a Sunday. I thought my 12 1/2 year old dog had had a stroke as he was unable to walk, etc. From the moment we drove into the parking lot, a technician met us at our car and led us to a room. Within moments Dr. Thomas Livezey came in the room to examine my dog. His gentle demeanor and knowledge immediately put me at ease in a very stressful situation. He examined my dog and talked to me about possible prognosis, etc. We agreed to further testing to determine exactly what was going on. Through the course of the next week Dr. Livezey's follow-up in answering any questions/concerns I had were immediately responded to. I have worked as a Veterinarian Technician in the past, and my sister is a Veterinarian out-of-state. The professionalism and personal attention from all staff including receptionist etc. are unsurpassed in my opinion. I would not hesitate to bring my animal to Carlsbad Animal Hospital under any circumstances!!! Caring, knowledgeable and personable staff!!! Thank you so much for your help :)
