Veterinary Ophthalmology Clinic

Wonderful care for my 9 year old “baby” Shih Tzu. She gave me serum drops and others to use aggressively to combat an eye ulcer and see if we could avoid surgery, and it worked! Izzy’s eye is looking great and healing! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS DOCTOR AND THIS FACILITY. Read Less

Love Dr. Isherwood! She is a sweetheart and diagnose my dog eye to the "T"! She is now on the road to recovery. I recommend her services to anyone who's animal has problems with there eyes. Her prices are not outrageous. They are very reasonable. Read Less

When I took my shih-tzu Buddy to see Dr Isherwood due to ulcers resulting from glaucoma due to diabetes, she was very caring and personable. She spent time with him and us. We never felt hurried. She was very professional and we felt very comfortable with her and knew our baby was in good hands. She is gentle with her bedside manner, yet aggressive with the treatment. She treated his bad eye as long as possible, but let us know in the beginning that the prognosis for his eye was poor. He kept that eye for a year before she had to perform an enucleation. Meanwhile she treated the other eye at the same time and saved it for an addition year. Unfortunately the diabetes took it's toll on him and both eyes had to be enucleated. Dr Isherwood and her entire staff were exceptional! My husband and I, as well as our Buddy, absolutely love her! I highly recommend her for your animal's needs. Read Less

Absolutely amazing service!!!! The doctor took the time to explain the procedure to me and give me step-by-step instructions on the recovery process for my dogs surgery. I left there feeling at ease and comfortable. Once again absolute amazing service. Read Less

Written on Sept 26, 2016: My wife and I are relieved and delighted to have our dog Dixie back with us, thanks to Dr. Walesby. Dixie - a "Dorky" (Yorkshire/Dachshund mix) -- was seven years old when she developed a walnut sized mast cell cancer on her left rear leg. It was so big that our usual vet gave us the dire prognosis of amputation or even death. It was a horrible shock. Our vet recommended Dr. Walesby and we're glad he did! Her staff and office personnel were very friendly and professional. The doctor herself explained all the medical details, suggested treatment, surgical procedure and probable outcome. The surgery - though serious - was performed one day and we got Dixie back the next. We were astonished! You could certainly see where that awful tumor had been removed (14 stitches!) but Dixie herself was conscious, alert, happy, even perky. As it turned out, all of the cancer had been caught in time and removed. That was about a month ago - now Dixie is the same as before, playing, eating, napping, snacking or watching for intruders. We recommend Dr. Walesby 100%, absolutely! Dixie doesn't even limp, though before the surgery we expected to have a three legged dog instead of our delightful dorky.

Dr Walesby and her staff took excellent care of my kitten and saved his life. I am forever grateful of her. She took care of him and treated him as if he was her own. Everyone treated me with nothing but respect. Read Less

Dr. Isherwood has done much to make Shadows life so much easier! We can never thank her enough for all the dedication and caring she has shown. Shadow always gives her kisses when he sees her. Went back Tuesday- 3/29/16 for his 6 month eye checkup. When she said he was doing great with vision it gave us a great feeling about how much she and her staff care. Thanks again! John, Sandy and most of all Shadow! Read Less

Not only has Dr. Walesby operated on my own dogs and cats, but I send to her our " special" surgeries that require her expert abilities. I wouldn't have it any other way. Excellent care with compassion. Marian Siegel, VMD Metropolitan Cat Hospital Read Less

Our 20 year old cat Cleo reached the end of her life and had a bad seizure on Thursday evening. She was obviously suffering and it was time to have her euthanized. We looked for an emegency veterinary clinic because our normal one was closed. We found this one and took her in. Their staff was very professional and helpful. It was a difficult time for us, but they made the process as painless as possible. Cleo was put to sleep that night around 10pm. The procedure was done professionally and without any pain to Cleo. I would highly recommend this place to others and I am thankful to the staff for all their help. Thank you! Read Less

I was extremely displeased with the service this clinic provided to my parents and their dog. Their 11 year old boston terrier had been experiencing eye problems, and a series of extensive testing was performed including x-rays, blood work, etc to ensure he did not have cancer or disease. Dr. Isherwood said that everything looked "normal" and that the dog simply had an issue with his tear ducts. Over $3000 for a painful surgery and a long period recovery, the dog was still having issues. Turns out the x-rays that were taken pre-procedure showed an abnormality indicating cancer, but the doctors at this office didn't think to mention that to my parents for further investigation. MY PARENTS DOG DIED YESTERDAY. The last months of his life were spent recovering from a surgery that was a complete waste of money, time, stress and pain. He could've lived the rest of his life, no matter how long that would have been, without having to suffer through an unnecessary surgery that only filled the wallets of the employees of this clinic. The whole point of pre-procedure testing and x-rays is to shed light on any abnormalities present... WHY my parents weren't told about his abnormal results until AFTER the surgery is a true crime. If this had happened with a doctor for humans this would be complete malpractice. Shame on this office and doctors for rushing into a surgery, putting a sick dog through stress and pain, causing distress to my family and stealing money that could have and should have been put toward cancer treatment.Read Less

We have had a great experience dealing with Dr. Isherwood and her entire team. Our english bulldog Fanny has a particularly bad case of distichia and ectopic hairs causing ulcers on her eyes. Dr. Isherwood has been extremely helpful in dealing with the problems, and also is very calming to very nervous puppy parents. They've made room for us to deal with unforeseen issues, and just been very professional and kind throughout our entire experience. We've never felt rushed when asking questions, and they take wonderful care of our baby. Thank you to the entire team!Read Less
