I had a wonderful experience here with Dr. Stankovics. She was extremely patient with my questions as a first-time dog owner. She inspected my dog thoroughly and did not rush the appointment in any way. The staff was also very friendly. She is an hour drive away, but it is definitely worth it for my pup and I. Read Less

I've used this veterinary practice for many years and called today with concerns about my dog being ill.  They turned me away and recommended another vet or one of the emergency clinics in the area like Animerge or Crown.  It's not like I was just someone off the street calling for an appointment.  Granted, they really took great care of my dog over the years and I was very pleased with them but after this phone call, it just gave me a sour taste in my mouth.  I have jumped around quite a bit to find a practice that I really like and Pleasant Valley was it for me but after this treatment today, I am not so sure now.The receptionist stated that they were busy and didn't have the time and I totally understand that but they could have gone out of their way a little bit to assist me.  If they offered advice, such as,  "wait it out for 24 hours and if she is not better, give us a call" but nothing to that effect.  That would have made me feel better than to just suggest going elsewhere.  I did not feel warm and fuzzy and the treatment I received was downright "cold".  I guess it's true when they state, "you are only a number". Thankfully, she is feeling better today but being that she is 12 years old and had me up all night; I was concerned that it was detrimental to get her medical attention.I am just very disappointed and hurt by their actions and will not be returning to this practice.    Back to square one in finding another vet. Maybe I will just go to the veterinary practice that they recommended because I hear they are wonderful! Read Less

Since we've been to Pleasant Valley Veterinary Services, we've had nothing but a great time. We sang Happy Birthday to my dog while he got his nails clipped, it was fun. Titan received all kinds of compliments, attention, and treats which made our big guy enjoy his whole experience and routine of shots. Our Doctor that day, Linda Dziedzic, was incredible and vibrant; she really made our first vet visit with out big dog go so smooth and really made it stress free for us. We've been there for 3 separate dogs(2 ours) and it's always been a great experience. I recommend this place, they are friendly, knowledgeable and offer options at every step of the route, when possible, to help you and your pet's journey. Read Less

I wish I could give them no stars. This past Thanksgiving something was wrong with my cat. We took him here which is also where we adopted him, so they know his whole history. After they examined him this Doctor Katie called my mom. I literally heard her say "He's lost a lot of weight since we last saw him. Since he lost so much weight so fast he might have hyperthyroidism!" After my mom explained it wasn't that fast, over the course of a year and a half, in fact, the "doctor" immediately replied "Oh well, because he lost so much weight over a long period of time that indicates he has thyroid problems so I want to do blood work" Contradict yourself much? We took him home because even if he did have thyroid problems I would not put my cat through that. He's too old! I couldn't put my parents through that either since they're the ones that would have to give him the pill. Once we got home we realized...the poor kitty couldn't walk! So I wondered if the doctor looked at him at all? After all these years I was never really happy with the people at Pleasant Valley Veterinary in Washington, NJ. Thanks to these morons my cat can't even walk and he might have to be put down because these horrible people wouldn't give him the time of day. Read Less

I live almost an hour away but in think Dr Mary is very good and treats my dogs the way I want them treated. Her knowledge is amazing but if it is something she doesn't know, she will do all she can to find out!! Read Less

I am so satisfied with the services from this office. I have not made a physical visit, and am not a previous customer. I came upon an issue and called for some advice, with the intention to visit if necessary. I spoke to a Lady named Debbie. OMG what a great person to speak to. So Helpful, so pleasant, patient and understanding. The knowledge she shared with me and help made me feel much better. She did not once push to make a visit and take my money unlike the last place I went to. I will definitely go here with my animals. Read Less

My experience has been the opposite of "AnimalLover". With three dogs, three cats, two horses, three fish and a frog, vet visits are a constant part of life around our house. After moving to the area seven years ago we tried several of the local clinics before settling on Pleasant Valley as our small animal vet about three years ago. Their service has always been exemplary, and we've never felt we were being pressured or "guilted" into unnecessary (and expensive) options, as is often seems to be the case at other places.

I had been going here for years. Now we find that on the rare occasion when we call with a question (like a simple question about changing a prescription), the people at the desk say they will have the Dr. call us back. That call never comes. When we we call the next day they say they did not know they were supposed to call us back. This happened a few times in the last year.Also, they called us with reminders on shots being due, when our pet just had those shots and is not due again for years. Obviously they do not keep good records.If you ask for copies to show your dog has had vaccines or whatever, they give excuses about how long it will take them because they are too busy. They might say "In a week" but the papers will never come.Do yourself a favor, there are other Vets in the area use one of them who is more in touch with her patients and what goes on in her office.
