Highly recommend. Recommended by two local surgeons for CT SCAN of our French bulldog’s head. Arrived at 8:45am and picked up our ? within two hours. No issues. The front office staff are very professional and accommodating. The Vet (fellow) walked us through the entire process.

This review is long overdue. I first took one of our cats to VICSD back in November of 2009 to be treated for hypothyroidism. Our beloved d'Artagnan (15) had been losing weight and getting super skinny. They treated him with a radioactive iodine I-131 injection and he improved rapidly after that. He managed to make it to age 17 before we lost him to intestinal lymphoma, but I never thanked VICSD back then for giving us those extra two years with him. Fast forward to 2023, they treated our cat Batman (age 10) in March for the same condition. Batman was impossible to medicate (it's a 3-person effort just to get him in a cat carrier), so twice-daily thyroid medications were never an option for him. He is a totally different cat now - still hard to get him into a cat carrier but he is mellower and looks so much healthier. He was down to skin and bones before his treatment.Today (November 10) we just brought home Calvin (age 12). Calvin is a big cat, he was 23 lbs at his heaviest. We have been dealing with some other health issues with Calvin this year so I delayed treating him for hypothyroid (discovered early in the year, same time as Batman) because his levels weren't as severe and he needed to lose some weight anyway. Now he is 16 lbs and just finished up his 5-day stint at VICSD. He is glad to be home and we are so happy to have our big lovable boy back! Looking forward to hopefully a healthy and happy future with him. Thank you to Dr. Christina Hewes and all of the staff there for taking such good care of our pets. We appreciated the daily updates and being able to see him on the Cat Cam so much.

I brought my cat here for the I -131 treatment for his hyperthyroid per recommendation from my vet. The staff was very kind and Dr.Hewes was thorough with both the pre examination and with explaining the process to me. My 13-year-old boy had never stayed over night in a kennel setting, and I was concerned with how stressed he would be for the week. But I greatly appreciated the daily updates, and I had zero concerns with his stay as you could easily tell through the staff interactions that he was in good hands. I look forward to seeing how he takes to this treatment and how it improves his health.
