Fairhaven Veterinary Hospital: Schasch Heather DVM

Dec 2023

I have a severely reactive dog and I wasn't sure how visits to the vet could ever go well for him. I told the staff at Fairhaven Vet his issues and they put together a game plan. I was very pleased and impressed how smooth the visit went. I took my boy back to get neutered and they handled it so well. The staff is very kind and understanding toward difficult dogs. Life with a reactive dog isn't easy, but Fairhaven Vet took excellent care of him and put me at ease. There's no question I will be going to Fairhaven Vet for all my pet needs.

Excellent care by Dr Schasch for elective appointment for general checkup and evaluation of a dog bite. I would give 5 star review for that. Unfortunately two days later my dog developed an abscess and Dr Schasch was out. I called early afternoon on a Friday and was told my dog could not be seen. No veterinarian would discuss this with me, so I had to find a veterinarian at another location to discuss antibiotics and therapy. Monday through Thursday the group is probably fine for semi-urgent issues and the elective care was great.

FVH is well deserving of its high review rating on Google. I've been taking my two Cavaliers to them since the beginning of 2020 and I've experienced nothing but the best care and love towards my animals from their front desk staff to their vets. Even when they are swamped with patients, I've never felt rushed or that my pets received less than their best. One of my Cavs had been struggling with chronic allergies since she was a puppy, the worst part of which were the awful ear infections she would get year round. It has taken a toll on her hearing. Until I met with Dr. Kennedy, no vet had taken the time to truly listen, take a detailed history and recommend alternatives when previous treatments had failed or proved to be unsustainable. Now Lily has the right meds and nothing has worked better. She isn't bothered by chronic ear infections anymore, doesn't itch and chew her paws non-stop, and can enjoy herself all seasons of the year! Thank you FVH for your dedication to our pets.
