I have to change my review. My last experience with NRAH was terrible. I took my cat in for a well visit as he was having cough fits. I told the vet I thought it was asthma. They insisted on ruling out asthma and testing for anything else. He was prescribed clavamox because they thought he had pneumonia and ended up having a severe reaction. I needed to take my cat to the ER. ER did more tests to basically tell me my cat has ASTHMA and not pneumonia.
I was very upset with the vet and complained and was not offered any compensation. I ended up spending $1700 on my cat which could of been a $250 bill if he was properly diagnosed. Then they said my cat needed his teeth cleaned they wanted $1500 for his teeth cleaning. I decided to get a second opinion and found another vet that only charged me $367 dollars. This vet is WAY over priced and they don't listen to the owners who live with the animals. I do not recommend going here unless you want to be out of a lot of money. Very disappointed and sad I had to change my positive review to a negative one.

When my 14 year old cats regular vet was unable to see her as promptly as I hoped, I called NRAH and they were able to see her the same day. Numerous health issues were addressed in a thorough, detailed, caring manner by Dr. Shivak. She is highly knowledgeable, professional and caring, as were all the staff I had contact with today. I will be returning there with my pet as needed and will highly recommend their services to anyone who is looking for superior care for their pets.

We unfortunately had to have our 13 year old cat put down due to serious health issues, and these people were so wonderful. They were so understanding, kind, and patient with us while we went through it. Couldn't ask for a better staff. They also offered cremation and his paw print so we could memorialize him forever.

Staff & Drs. are thurow with the exams, caring & they listen, & it is clean there, they are just absolutely wonderful. My long story short is > Dr found something and my cat needed surgery : but for yrs. from my OLD vet clinic who I will NEVER be going back to ever again, never brought this to my attention. Him & his wife always looked inside her mouth at every visit. I am sickened by their lack of profession, my poor cat has been going through pain & this infection for years.
I feel horrible because she ate & drank & didn't show any type of discomfort, but yet she was. She is 17 yrs old & that makes me sick even more because she could have enjoyed life a bit more comfortably. Back to N.R.A.H. I will be returning with my cat & bringing the rest of my animal house here from now on. You may pay a little more but its worth it. your pet will definitely get what he/she deserves & needs. I totally recommend

We took our cat Gus there on Saturday because it was time to let her go. The staff and doctor were so kind and gentle with Gus and us to the end. Today we received flowers and a card from (picture attached). Thank you for making a hard decision a little easier.
