Our dog, Sky, had terrible allergies. She'd been scratching so badly that about 1/3 of her fur was gone. Our primary vet, as wonderful as they are, couldn't figure it out even after months of trying different things. They suggested we take her to Dr. Rothstein. Dr. R figured it out immediately and gave Sky a shot. It's the only thing that's worked for her other than steroids. Now we have a happy, healthy dog again. I can't recommend Animal Allergy and Dermatology Services highly enough. Read Less

My experience was very uplifting one. You can see how dedicated Dr. Rothstein is in finding the solution, and she always talks to you directly when you call her office. We have a much happier dog now. B Read Less

We had our first appointment with Dr. Rothstein this afternoon, and couldn't be happier. Her exam was thorough, she explained everything to me in a way that was easy to understand, and she was wonderful with my dog - who can be a bit of a bit high energy, to say the least! She's the 5th vet that's seen our dog for the same complaint (severe itchiness) and this is the first time I left feeling like we're finally making progress toward getting him better. We've been doing food trials to rule out allergies and she was the first to point out that our heartworm med and other little things were undermining it all. Her assistant (Melissa?) was great too! Highly recommend her for both her knowledge and demeanor. Read Less

Great experience and very knowledgeable Took my rescued blue nose pit who scratches like crazy from mid July till end of September After skin biopsy was determined allergic to the seasonal pollen. Instead of asking for me to pay for an expensive prescription the vet said try benedryl first it's the cheapest and gave me the proper dog dosage to use; unfortunately we had to move to Claritin which is a little more costly but Delillah is now scratch free!!! Very satisfied and loved the way the office tried to help save me moneyRead Less

Very friendly and loving toward dogs.   Had many approaches available to me at differing levels of intervention.  Followed up over the phone several times. Excellent care.  Going back five years later as have a different problem, would recommend highly. Read Less

Don't waste your money neither time. We brought our white pit for consultation. She has bad allergies. The vet seemed to don't know what to do... kept asking for skin test and more test... after $$$ and lot of visits she told us that we should bring the dog to our regular vet... So finally a friend told us about Chippens Hill in Bristol... with one visit $ and one test the dog skin looks like nothing never happen... She is a happy dog again... not thanks to this people...

I brought my dog to see Dr. Rothstein and her and her staff were excellent. The doctor was gentle and patient with my dog and very loving also. She is very personable and spent over an hour just examining my dog and answering any questions we had. She also provided handouts and thoroughly explained the treatment plan she created.  A very nice practice and I would highly recommend it! Read Less

Amazing Doctor!Today 6/13 was my first visit with Dr. Rothstein.  My previous dermatologist had retired so I was a little nervous to say the least to start all over again with a new doctor.  Well my nerves were for nothing.  Dr. Rothstein is a gem - her love of dogs is transparent the minute she enters in to the room.  My dog is a lover and kisses take place on rapid fire - Dr. Rothstein welcomed every one of them putting my dog and me at ease.  She is truly amazing with the animals and I don't allow just anyone near my boy (Pomeranian).  Her knowledge is extensive and she is very willing to hear your concerns and input on treatment.  She also thinks outside the box which with unusual conditions is very helpful. The office staff are great  and very helpful. Don't hesitate to book an appointment with Dr. Rothstein she really is one in a million. Read Less

If you're looking for warmth, compassion, and an easy informative style ... keep looking.  Dr Rothstein seems well informed in her specialty of dermatology, but treated our dog as if he were an inanimate object.  I found her brusque on the phone and highly judgmental.  We have a champion standard poodle recently dx with sebaceous adenitis.  We were attempting to discuss alternative treatments and she snapped, "most people won't risk their dogs health over a PURELY cosmetic condition" ... our breeder (world renown) has concurred that this incurable life long condition is NOT a PURELY cosmetic condition -- it is uncomfortable for a dog to be without a coat, have a scaly residue, and potential infection - scabs - inflammation- etc.  I was very offended by her insinuation that we were somehow vain and insensitive to the potential side effects of many of these treatment approaches we were trying to discuss.  We have had Standard Poodles for 20 years and they are part of our family. Dr. Rothstein's sarcasm borders on rudeness and we were surprised that someone in the field of dermatology would not appreciate the emotional impact of this disease upon the pet (and the owners) ... She had better check her (ahem) bedside manner.  We were warned about her before we made the appointment, but it was still shocking. Regardless of how many initials someone may have AFTER their name, it's their empathy that makes them a real HEALER.DR. Sandra Scantling, Farmington - CT  06032 Read Less

I've been taking our GSD to Dr. Emily Rothstein for over 5 years and have nothing but the highest praise for her and the practice.  Dr. Rothstein immediately puts our dog at ease (he is usually not comfortable with vets) and he instinctively knows he is in good hands and relaxes. Her bedside manner is wonderful and  her scientific approach to diagnoses and treatments is excellent and has kept him going and comfortable for the last 5 years even though he is afflicted with an incurable genetic skin disorder.  If you need a derm vet, I highly recommend her.
