I adopted Rip on 5/3/25. He had a very sick tummy and I was trying the chicken/rice route before his wellness 1st appt in 2 weeks. I called the office and were able to see him 5/6. Excellent care and now hes feeling much better.

I adopted a rescue on 10/19 and wanted to get him checked out. I was able to get an appointment a few days after I called and I found the staff to be caring, thorough and informative. Good advice, no unnecessary tests or vaccinations and just an overall positive experience for both me and my pup. Almost 3 years later, I still bring my pup to PAW. Same caring environment, thorough exams and excellent communications. Even during the height of Covid, they did telemed visit when needed.

Dr. Kim Rio and her staff are AMAZING! They took the time to listen to all my concerns for our 2 fur babies. Highly recommend:

Everyone there is amazing. They are informative and kind. When my cat got sick, they were a tremendous help. He is well now, and has been for years. Always do the yearly check ups.

We had a great first visit. Everyone was kind, thoughtful and so patient. There was transparency with pricing, care and love given to our dog Murphy and explanations along the way Would recommend them highly. Thanks for all that you do!

Very happy Progressive Animal Wellness is our dog's vet's office. Since the moment I called to make an appointment as a new customer, the staff was very polite, professional and helpful. Our first visit was awesome and our dog loved the place, and so did I. Everybody was very welcoming and fun. Most importantly, they took the time to go over all the information about our pet and made sure our dog was always comfortable and happy. Fabulous place!

I would recommend PAWS to everyone. They are so welcoming and caring my cat shows no stress from her visit. And, I've never had such incredible follow up post visit. They are completely transparent with charges too. I trust them - which says it all.

Was bummed because my pups first vet appointment was curbside and I couldn't film and be with him, but I do love and understand the precautions they are taking at a time like this. My tech was great, she answered all my questions and concerns. The doctor came out as well and talked with us which I loved, made me feel like she really cared instead of just sending the tech outside with the information. The visit was quicker then I excepted and everyone was so genuinely nice. Thank you!

I quite literally could not recommend PAW higher. My dog (Lyle) was visiting from out of state and suffered a bad wound. His regular vet was a 20 hour drive away and there was a global pandemic occuring so I was unsure what to do. In addtion he was due that very day for his annual exam and vaccines. There was a lot happening. My pup had gone to PAW when he was a puppy living in Connecticut so I took an off chance and called them, my expectations pretty low that they would be able to do much because he was not really a patient of their practice and, again, there was a pandemic happening.

To my great pleasure they saw him THAT MORNING and were excellent and professional (no surprises there). I had to wait outside because of the aforementioned pandemic but they called me regualrly to update me and gave me a detailed estiamate before they did anything. They even gave him his yearly physical and vaccines, no problem. I am so so greatful. Take your pet here they are excellent and will help you even if you have not been to their practice for two years and you live out of state!

I have two fur-babies/dogs that have been patients at PAW for over 8 years. They have offered us consistent and exemplary service in that time. Before any kind of exam, staff members get down of the floor and play with my dogs to make them feel comfortable. Before any services are performed, I always get a written estimate, so there are no surprises when I check out. I truly appreciate the commitment and kindness of every single staff member there. It is also the veterinarian office I have been to that does not smell. I highly recommend them.

Always a great experience. Left our other veterinarian due to their lack of service. This has been a breath of fresh air. They are kind, genuine, and take excellent care of our furry family members.

My dog recently had several teeth extractions performed by Dr. Corey Shagensky, DVM and team. Exceptional customer service was provided from start to finish. Loved the Staff signed bandanna after her procedure. It was such an amazing gesture. It was nice to receive a follow up call after her procedure to check in on how she was doing. Progressive Animal Wellness is just the best and I have recommended them to my family and friends. I am a very satisfied customer. Caren Wasserman Pet Parent to Sadie, 12 year old Cavachon

I brought Lucy for the first time on Saturday to PAW. I am so pleased with the care she was given and the quick results I got back! Everyone was so caring and kind and I felt at ease!

Simply the best, clean, cutting edge, from start to finish everything and everyone goes above and beyond.

Dr. Shagensky and his staff made one of the hardest days of my life, saying goodbye to my pup Koz, as comfortable as it possibly could have been. They explained everything patiently and thoroughly, making sure we were comfortable at every step. The compassion and care that they show truly makes a difference and should not go unthanked. They are amazing and I wouldn't go anywhere else...and I even live in Maine now!

I had my 1 st appointment and was very pleased with the reception we recieved and the explanation of everything that needed to be done.Everyone took time to listen to my concerns and thoroughly explained everything. I recieved a follow up call on some lab work and a surgical procedure that needed to be performed.Overall the place was clean with very friendly staff.

I suffered an infection in my neck following a bite by my cousin on Labor Day while in Wash., DC. Progressive Animal Wellness, VCA Avon Emergency Animal Hospital, Drs. Dudek, Michael & Shagensky, and the staff at each facility provided me with first rate medical care. Due to their efforts, I expect to have a 110% recovery -- the bionics will make me better than ever! Thank you!

My cat AND girlfriend absolutely loved these guys. They went for Bernard's first checkup. He is a ragdoll that's about a year and a half old. Everybody was very nice and extremely helpful. I would highly recommend them already for all you animals needs.
