Dr. Serratore performed surgery on my 11-year-old male GSD on Thursday, November 3rd to remove a large and probably malignant tumor from his throat. She did a magnificent job, and my boy (Qanuk) was able to come home with me Thursday afternoon. He is doing just great, eating well and wanting to play! Dr. Serratore was extremely professional and worked very hard to give me all of our options along with their pros and cons. I cannot thank her enough for her efforts! I would VERY highly recommend Dr. Serratore to anyone looking for a skilled, caring and professional veterinary surgeon.

Dr. Serratore is very knowledgeable and professional. Our pet needed a complex surgery, and we were very nervous about it. She was wonderful and took the time to answer all of our questions. We greatly appreciated her attention to detail and commitment to providing the best possible care for her patients. She and her staff go above and beyond to ensure her patients receive the highest level of care possible and that the pet owner(s) feel supported.

My 11 year old Rottweiler needed a complex surgery last month for an anal mass. Dr. Serratore was amazing, we are so very grateful to her, and her staff. Mr. Roo/Hans is doing fantastic, he will turn 12 years old in May. We cannot thank her enough for everything. I highly recommend Dr. Serratore, if your pet needs a highly skilled veterinary surgeon she is the best!
