I had a very horrible experience with this vet practice and almost lost my 3 year old, Olde English Bulldog for a simple dew claw removal. I called after his surgery and told them he is very lethargic and they said that is normal. 10 minutes later he stops breathing and I have to rush him to an emergency vet hospital. They told me when I called and said my dog is not breathing "we are closing and we can't keep a pet here over night". Instructed me to take him to the nearest Pet ER. I did and they told me he needed a reversal for the anesthesia as he was overly sedated and his heart rate dropped to 28. Thank god that it worked, I had to pay an additional fee for this which almost cost as much as the surgery. I later called to tell them how upset I was and I was talked to as if I was a child. They said during surgery his heart rate dropped and they had to give him reversal for the anesthesia and again after wards but this apparently is normal................they failed to inform me or my family what happened and we did not realize what was happening when he was struggling to breath. We needed to know the name of the drugs he was given to reverse them and if they had not answered the phone my dog probably would have died. I am disgusted with this vet and will make it a point to let others know how negligent they are and rude. There is much more to this story but there is no point, .....1154$ later I pray my dog does not get an infection and I never have to deal with this horrible practice again. It's all about money for them. I place blame on the vets there and management. The techs all seem to be good people. Read Less

Not even worth the one star I am sorry but this place is a joke. Way to take advantage of people that do not understand what's happening. My parents brought their dog in for lameness and almost 700 dollars later they leave no better off. Dr Goldstein congrats on the bullshit you pulled today do you get ramp up salary for the more you charge? Since when do you NEED to do bloodwork  on young dog with no other health concerns, fever or not being presurgical ?!?  Funny thing is my dog had the same issue we went to a regular HONEST vet got the same exact diagnosis for 400 less and bloodwork was never even thought of. It's messed up for people trying to do right by their pet. And everyone wonders why so many dogs don't get the care they need . You guys should be ashamed of yourselves. Read Less

My sister brought her dog here because he was really sick. They prescribed him medicine & took his blood. They left my sister a voicemail the following day asking her to call back regarding his blood results. She called back & the Dr. had left. They made my sister worry for 3 days before they called back! My sisters dog was getting worse and worse! The medicine wasn't working and she ended up having to put him down. This was devastating and heart breaking! A few days later my sister noticed that the medicine prescribed to her dog had been expired. My sister called The Vet numerous times& they kept giving her the runaround! When The receptionist finally called her back she told my sister that the doctor would call her back tomorrow. The doctor never called her back! As if this wasn't heartbreaking enough for her and her family.... now she has to live wondering would her dog have lived longer had that prescription not been expired! This vet have no dignity and no heart! Read Less

I brought my 13 year old Pomeranian to this clinic because he was not well. They provided 125 mg clavamox and gabaoemtin,unfortunately the medicine wasn't helping. My dog was actually getting worse. We had to make the agonizing decision of getting him euthanized. Mourning the loss of a dog, left me distraught. I started to dispose of his stuff when I noticed that the Medicine that was prescribed to him was expired. I have made several attempts to speak with the office manager, Star. Needless to say my calls have gone unanswered.  I think it's my responsibility as a pet owner to raise awareness to other pet owners to make sure that this does not happen to someone else. After threatening legal action my call was finally returned and I expressed my feelings on thinking I should be refunded for the visit since nothing was done to help him. I was told that I would have to speak with the doctor who saw him during his visit because if I were to just be refunded it would be an insult to their doctors. I was told that they would be back in touch with me no later than 9/11 to find out what could be done and since then have not gotten any other phone calls and it is now the 22nd. I am very displeased with the situation at hand and the matter in which it has been handled. It just breaks my heart that this happened and others should be aware that this is going on. Read Less

First time there and I was very pleased. I call because I was running late and they had no problem with that. I checked in and waited maybe 5 mins top before being seen. The veterinarians have so much love for animals. At the end I was given a welcome package with so much information. Most of the stuff In the package I was aware of only because I had done my own research while at the previous veterinary clinic. I wish this was my first choice. The one thing that I would change is the office cost charge. It is almost double what everyone else charges. Read Less

Called in a panic because our dog was having major breathing issues also throwing up and unable to walk. They do not have overnight care or anything that would have helped my boy other than a sedative. Be careful of the bait and switch that happened to me!! I don't know what happened to honestly but if you can't really help me in a scary situation like what my family and I went thru, why tell us to stop?? So I got a call from a "Half Owner" who thinks it's ok to do this "stop in even though we really can't do much except ask for payment after being told they do NO SURGERY OR OVERNIGHT ANYTHING. When I was getting their at 5pm ish here's another thing your staff should have thought about, WE CLOSE SOON!! You know what panicked people are thinking?? Not sure if you remember we are not $numbers. I find it so wrong on so many levels. Keep to your nail clipping and give me my money back Read Less

Really disappointed.  I called at 8:30 in the morning because my dog was having a problem.  The receptionist never even asked what was wrong, but told me that they were too booked to see him.  She didn't take my name or number in case there was a cancellation.  She simply said, "Sorry.  We don't have time."   As a current client of the practice, I was disappointed in the poor customer service and lack of compassion showed.***Update, a few hours after this posting, the receptionist called and offered to squeeze us in later in the day.  Although I am not sure how she knew who I was because I had not given my name when I called, I appreciate the change of service.  Unfortunately, when I went to pick up my pup, my husband had already taken him to another doctor.  Either way, I appreciate the improved service and will continue to use this veterinary clinic.

Twice we asked them to accommodate our scared, nervous fifteen year old bichon by calling us in from the parking lot when the doctor himself was able to see us,rather than have her stress herself out,and us included,sitting in the waiting room...first time we waited 45 mins in the room,an hour for the second time...Now I'm sure I made myself clear to them as to what I had asked them to do to help out our tiny, timid loved one on her visit to the vet..We felt total disregard and our requests were ignored at this time of disparity.Even after experiencing this kind of treatment,we gave them the benefit of the doubt and called them back again to ask about a new arising problem with our little peanut and had asked them to please have the Dr call us when able to set up a game plan,knowing he was familiar with the dog and her problems.That was a week ago,still no phone call..They want you in and out, with no compassion for you or your pet,otherwise these simple requests would have been met..go somewhere where they care!!!

Took my dog into the clinic and he absolutely loved it, as did I. I have jumped from several vets prior to coming to Brodheadsville and I must say the search is over!!! The staff was pleasant and courteous, the building was clean and the layout was very well designed. I knew we had found the right vet almost instantly and then we met the doctor himself and that reassured me that my thoughts were correct!! My pup has been suffering with paw issues that were misdiagnosed for months now causing him pain and discomfort, after a few minutes Dr. Jeremy told me what the real problem was and how to properly treat it in a safe and effective manner, and my furry guy has had no problems ever since. I wish we found this clinic sooner!!! If you are debating whether to bring your pet here or not, stop, this is the right place, the cost is reasonable, the staff is delightful and most of all the doctors know what they're doing. This is the best place in the poconos, trust me, I've been to almost everyone else. Read Less

With all the other reviews read about the absence of previous vets, I'd have to agree the quality has completely declined at this practice. My family's German Shepherd suffers from seizures and is on daily medication that has created an improvement for her day-to-day well-being. She is very close with my father and whenever we took her to get blood work done for her medication, my father would always be in the room to keep her calm. Last visit, my father was told he could not be in the room as she was taken back to another area where they struggled trying to put a muzzle on her, as she was already anxious thanks to the initial separation. Today, we were unable to fill her script for her medication. The pharmacist told us he could not get the medication because the script was not filled out correctly. I am highly dissatisfied and disgusted with this practice as they have no general, in-depth awareness and understanding for their patients and people who are seeking a clinic they can trust for the well-being of their pets.Read Less

DO NOT GO HERE.This vet clinic used to be good but the doctor we used to see unfortunately passed and ever since then this place has been a mess. Extremely unprofessional, rude staff. I have two puppies and the technicians have no idea what they're doing. They do not know how to handle dogs whatsoever. They completely freaked out my one dog during a lyme disease vaccination -- what should have been a simple procedure but they pretty much traumatized my dog and couldn't complete the vaccination process. Came back for bloodwork that needs to be done before a spay & neuter appointment and the same thing happened -- my dog completely freaked out because they did not know how to hold or handle him. AGAIN. They couldn't even get the blood drawn from him. For my other dog (less calm), they weren't trained enough to draw the blood properly after several attempts. This is completely unacceptable behavior and I'm extremely dissatisfied at the lack of professionalism and expertise. Read Less

I can only get one star because the experience I had in the reception area wasn't even worth 1 star let me explain. I entered the place at 11:30 I am a new client so I figured well maybe there's some paperwork that has to be filled out just like in any other vet that I've been to since I'm an animal owner for years. I walked in and I was not greeted I was not even acknowledged at any point I had to go up to the desk and even at that time I was still not acknowledge they wouldn't even look up at me. Not to mention that it was a hundred degrees in there because their AC was down right then and there they should have shut that place down until their AC was fixed it is abusive to have animals sitting in a waiting room sweating and almost looking like they're on their last leg. I was told the AC is broken and there's nothing they can do about it so I sat there for a little bit with my little kitten who I saved from underneath the trailer and I was really excited to get her checked out. And I'm sitting there waiting and waiting and waiting and still nothing no paperwork no nothing so I said to the girls waiting next to me tell him I'm leaving because this is unacceptable and this place is nothing but a money Mill they  don't care about the animals because if they cared about the animals they would have shut that place down and fix the air conditioner and not booked people 15 minutes apart.  I will never go back there. I just moved here from New Jersey and I'm going to the woman who's opening up a clinic on 115. I don't know what her name is but that's where I'm going. The two young ladies in the waiting room were only there because they needed immediate care for their dog and they were the ones that told me about the woman who's opening up a clinic on 115. good luck Read Less

Read the review below, all I have to say on the subject is the good news is I heard Dr. Sobers no longer works at this clinic.   Was there just recently and found the Doctors now were very compassionate to my 12 yr old pup.  I like Dr. Whittiak and Dr. Craig the best.  They really seem to care about my pet and are trying to help me do what's best for him, explaining whats going on and trying to keep him comfortable.   I know this place has had a few challenges since Dr. Seely's passing  (I loved that guy, he was my vet for years) and yes, the receptionists (especially one) are pretty lame, but overall I do see that recently they are working to make things better, Read Less

Brodheadsville had been very good to my furry family, they were affordable and honest. However, once Dr. Seely died it became a completely different story. First, they weren't available too often, which is understandable because they lost their main vet. Then, the replacement took over. Dr. Spizak is a very nice, personable doctor, BUT I feel he doesn't know what he is doing. First of all, he told me my one dog was in heart failure the week before Christmas. The clinic recommended a very expensive cardiologist at Barton heights. I was able to find the same test at another vet, Quakertown for a great savings $1000+ vs $260. I let that one go, everyone makes mistakes, who knows what he may have saw on the xrays--better safe than sorry..whatever. Then, he told me this dog had glaucoma. After watching him heavily struggle to do the pressure test on his eye, I went for a second opinion, no pressure problems, as I suspected. Let me add this was after about an hour's worth of poking and prodding my generally docile 30 lb dog (he doesnt seem too skilled in handling them). Additionally, I had another one of my dogs getting checked regularly for developing lumps. I went years at Brodheadsville being told these lumps didn't need to be removed, by Seely, Spizak, and Sobers. Finally, Spizak recommended 2 out of the 3 of the lumps I was concerned about be removed. The third lump that he said was fine, was on my dog's flank, this lump was inflamed and really was bothering her. I found it odd that the lump was still 'ok' by Spizsk's recommendations. I went for a second and third opinion regarding this lump. The other two vets recommended it be removed, along with an additional 3 lumps (totaling 6). The inflamed lump was biopsied and came back as an aggressive tumor. Another lump that had been on my dog's eyelid for years was also quite troublesome as it had continued to grow year after year overlooked by Brodheadsville. The negligence of this vet has cost my dog her life. I had taken the precautionary steps monitoring the lump and bringing her for regular vet care and he overlooked it. Doing research, I learned the inflammation of the lump is usually a "red flag," but not for him. I'm very saddened by this development at Brodheadsville. I trusted them when Dr. Seely was in practice and appreciated their prices and honesty. I raved about this practice to anyone who would listen. At this point, I feel like the negligence I've encountered here is a death sentence to your furry loved ones. If you feel you must go to Brodheadsville (tho I think they aren't even taking new clients) make arrangements to see Dr. Sobers in her limited hours. I hope your dog has a better fate than mine. My poor, poor dog.Read Less

We have been going to BVC for over a decade. Dr. Seely was the best vet we've ever had and always treated us well. Since his passing, however, we are strongly debating whether we want to continue to bring our pets here. No matter how dire the condition of one of our pets, it takes at least a week to get an appointment. When we inquired further about this issue, we were told that the practice no longer takes emergencies of any kind. Most of BVC's clientele cannot afford to spend $2,000 at a veterinary emergency hospital every time an emergency comes up and yet that is the only option clients of BVC currently have. I suspect that many of the staff were displeased with the changes to the practice as well, since their vet techs and other support staff have been leaving en masse. While I feel that Dr. Sobers and Dr. Gusztaw are good vets, that's largely irrelevant if they refuse to see our pets when they are ill. BVC has essentially become little more than a fixed location shot clinic. Read Less

At first I was a little annoyed with the girl who made my appointment. She seemed short and mechanical. But when I got there everyone was so nice. At that point I realized it was due to how busy they are as to why the girl seemed short, They took real good care of my kitten. I got her for free from craigslist for my daughter. (that was a mistake) She came infested with fleas, tape worm etc. they fixed her right up and were very good with her, she got all her shots and spayed and the entire process including taking care of the worms cost me $130.00. I might mention there was a snowstorm scheduled for the day of her appointment and they called me the day before and said I could bring her the night before to stay over, so I wouldn't be out in the weather. Now that's good people! Read Less

I had a very horrible experience with this vet practice and almost lost my 3 year old, Olde English Bulldog for a simple dew claw removal. I called after his surgery and told them he is very lethargic and they said that is normal. 10 minutes later he stops breathing and I have to rush him to an emergency vet hospital. They told me when I called and said my dog is not breathing "we are closing and we can't keep a pet here over night". Instructed me to take him to the nearest Pet ER. I did and they told me he needed a reversal for the anesthesia as he was overly sedated and his heart rate dropped to 28. Thank god that it worked, I had to pay an additional fee for this which almost cost as much as the surgery. I later called to tell them how upset I was and I was talked to as if I was a child. They said during surgery his heart rate dropped and they had to give him reversal for the anesthesia and again after wards but this apparently is normal................they failed to inform me or my family what happened and we did not realize what was happening when he was struggling to breath. We needed to know the name of the drugs he was given to reverse them and if they had not answered the phone my dog probably would have died. I am disgusted with this vet and will make it a point to let others know how negligent they are and rude. There is much more to this story but there is no point, .....1154$ later I pray my dog does not get an infection and I never have to deal with this horrible practice again. It's all about money for them. I place blame on the vets there and management. The techs all seem to be good people. Read Less

Dr Goldstein congrats on the bullshit you pulled today do you get ramp up salary for the more you charge? Since when do you NEED to do bloodwork  on young dog with no other health concerns, fever or not being presurgical ?!?  Funny thing is my dog had the same issue we went to a regular HONEST vet got the same exact diagnosis for 400 less and bloodwork was never even thought of.

This was devastating and heart breaking! A few days later my sister noticed that the medicine prescribed to her dog had been expired. My sister called The Vet numerous times& they kept giving her the runaround! When The receptionist finally called her back she told my sister that the doctor would call her back tomorrow. The doctor never called her back!

I brought my 13 year old Pomeranian to this clinic because he was not well. They provided 125 mg clavamox and gabaoemtin,unfortunately the medicine wasn't helping. My dog was actually getting worse. We had to make the agonizing decision of getting him euthanized. Mourning the loss of a dog, left me distraught. I started to dispose of his stuff when I noticed that the Medicine that was prescribed to him was expired. I have made several attempts to speak with the office manager, Star. Needless to say my calls have gone unanswered.  I think it's my responsibility as a pet owner to raise awareness to other pet owners to make sure that this does not happen to someone else. After threatening legal action my call was finally returned and I expressed my feelings on thinking I should be refunded for the visit since nothing was done to help him. I was told that I would have to speak with the doctor who saw him during his visit because if I were to just be refunded it would be an insult to their doctors. I was told that they would be back in touch with me no later than 9/11 to find out what could be done and since then have not gotten any other phone calls and it is now the 22nd. I am very displeased with the situation at hand and the matter in which it has been handled. It just breaks my heart that this happened and others should be aware that this is going on. Read Less

With all the other reviews read about the absence of previous vets, I'd have to agree the quality has completely declined at this practice. My family's German Shepherd suffers from seizures and is on daily medication that has created an improvement for her day-to-day well-being. She is very close with my father and whenever we took her to get blood work done for her medication, my father would always be in the room to keep her calm. Last visit, my father was told he could not be in the room as she was taken back to another area where they struggled trying to put a muzzle on her, as she was already anxious thanks to the initial separation. Today, we were unable to fill her script for her medication. The pharmacist told us he could not get the medication because the script was not filled out correctly. I am highly dissatisfied and disgusted with this practice as they have no general, in-depth awareness and understanding for their patients and people who are seeking a clinic they can trust for the well-being of their pets.Read Less

The remodeling looks great! The entire staff seemed new to me. It was weird after going to the same vet for so many years to not know anyone at the practice. I think it would be nice to see a list of the vets and their education/specialties. I felt like I had changed vets but didn't pick one out myself. I also don't ever remember having heartworm/Lyme testing done on my dog without being asked if I wanted it. Read Less

Misdiagnosed my dog repeatedly. Unfortunately, their lack of pet care knowledge has cost me dearly. Financially and emotionally. One appointment had me waiting almost 3 hours. They over schedule then act like they can't be so bothered when you complain. One receptionist in particular needs to be sent for customer service training. Don't know her name but she's recognizable by the heavy elf blue eye shadow she wears. Hope they remodel their staff along with the building.

DO NOT GO HERE.This vet clinic used to be good but the doctor we used to see unfortunately passed and ever since then this place has been a mess. Extremely unprofessional, rude staff. I have two puppies and the technicians have no idea what they're doing. They do not know how to handle dogs whatsoever. They completely freaked out my one dog during a lyme disease vaccination -- what should have been a simple procedure but they pretty much traumatized my dog and couldn't complete the vaccination process. Came back for bloodwork that needs to be done before a spay & neuter appointment and the same thing happened -- my dog completely freaked out because they did not know how to hold or handle him. AGAIN. They couldn't even get the blood drawn from him. For my other dog (less calm), they weren't trained enough to draw the blood properly after several attempts. This is completely unacceptable behavior and I'm extremely dissatisfied at the lack of professionalism and expertise. Read Less

I can't express the kindness and professionalism of DR CRAIG SPISAK and Vet Tech JESSICA after calling around 5-6 places to have my 18 yo cat SADIE put to sleep not only were the prices the best I found they were nice over the phone and in person. Jessica came in the room and was so sweet and concerned then Dr Spisak came in and he was just as kind and concerned even giving her a sedative to calm her and it was over quickly . Being a NURSE for over 25 years I was impressed. Most offices are all about money and it's a shame what some places want to charge and I was bringing her home to bury her ! Jessica wrapped her in the baby blanket I brought and even did footprints for us in a kit you put a picture and didn't charge us. Even the front staff girls were nice as we left.

I can only get one star because the experience I had in the reception area wasn't even worth 1 star let me explain. I entered the place at 11:30 I am a new client so I figured well maybe there's some paperwork that has to be filled out just like in any other vet that I've been to since I'm an animal owner for years. I walked in and I was not greeted I was not even acknowledged at any point I had to go up to the desk and even at that time I was still not acknowledge they wouldn't even look up at me. Not to mention that it was a hundred degrees in there because their AC was down right then and there they should have shut that place down until their AC was fixed it is abusive to have animals sitting in a waiting room sweating and almost looking like they're on their last leg. I was told the AC is broken and there's nothing they can do about it so I sat there for a little bit with my little kitten who I saved from underneath the trailer and I was really excited to get her checked out. And I'm sitting there waiting and waiting and waiting and still nothing no paperwork no nothing so I said to the girls waiting next to me tell him I'm leaving because this is unacceptable and this place is nothing but a money Mill they  don't care about the animals because if they cared about the animals they would have shut that place down and fix the air conditioner and not booked people 15 minutes apart.  I will never go back there. I just moved here from New Jersey and I'm going to the woman who's opening up a clinic on 115. I don't know what her name is but that's where I'm going. The two young ladies in the waiting room were only there because they needed immediate care for their dog and they were the ones that told me about the woman who's opening up a clinic on 115. good luck Read Less

Brodheadsville had been very good to my furry family, they were affordable and honest. However, once Dr. Seely died it became a completely different story. First, they weren't available too often, which is understandable because they lost their main vet. Then, the replacement took over. Dr. Spizak is a very nice, personable doctor, BUT I feel he doesn't know what he is doing. First of all, he told me my one dog was in heart failure the week before Christmas. The clinic recommended a very expensive cardiologist at Barton heights. I was able to find the same test at another vet, Quakertown for a great savings $1000+ vs $260. I let that one go, everyone makes mistakes, who knows what he may have saw on the xrays--better safe than sorry..whatever. Then, he told me this dog had glaucoma. After watching him heavily struggle to do the pressure test on his eye, I went for a second opinion, no pressure problems, as I suspected. Let me add this was after about an hour's worth of poking and prodding my generally docile 30 lb dog (he doesnt seem too skilled in handling them). Additionally, I had another one of my dogs getting checked regularly for developing lumps. I went years at Brodheadsville being told these lumps didn't need to be removed, by Seely, Spizak, and Sobers. Finally, Spizak recommended 2 out of the 3 of the lumps I was concerned about be removed. The third lump that he said was fine, was on my dog's flank, this lump was inflamed and really was bothering her. I found it odd that the lump was still 'ok' by Spizsk's recommendations. I went for a second and third opinion regarding this lump. The other two vets recommended it be removed, along with an additional 3 lumps (totaling 6). The inflamed lump was biopsied and came back as an aggressive tumor. Another lump that had been on my dog's eyelid for years was also quite troublesome as it had continued to grow year after year overlooked by Brodheadsville. The negligence of this vet has cost my dog her life. I had taken the precautionary steps monitoring the lump and bringing her for regular vet care and he overlooked it. Doing research, I learned the inflammation of the lump is usually a "red flag," but not for him. I'm very saddened by this development at Brodheadsville. I trusted them when Dr. Seely was in practice and appreciated their prices and honesty. I raved about this practice to anyone who would listen. At this point, I feel like the negligence I've encountered here is a death sentence to your furry loved ones. If you feel you must go to Brodheadsville (tho I think they aren't even taking new clients) make arrangements to see Dr. Sobers in her limited hours. I hope your dog has a better fate than mine. My poor, poor dog.Read Less

We have been going to BVC for over a decade. Dr. Seely was the best vet we've ever had and always treated us well. Since his passing, however, we are strongly debating whether we want to continue to bring our pets here. No matter how dire the condition of one of our pets, it takes at least a week to get an appointment. When we inquired further about this issue, we were told that the practice no longer takes emergencies of any kind. Most of BVC's clientele cannot afford to spend $2,000 at a veterinary emergency hospital every time an emergency comes up and yet that is the only option clients of BVC currently have. I suspect that many of the staff were displeased with the changes to the practice as well, since their vet techs and other support staff have been leaving en masse. While I feel that Dr. Sobers and Dr. Gusztaw are good vets, that's largely irrelevant if they refuse to see our pets when they are ill. BVC has essentially become little more than a fixed location shot clinic. Read Less

Dr. Sealy and Dr. Sobers both took wonderful care of him and he was there for 2 wks. My fee they charged me was wonderful. They kept the price down and fixed this cat. This is a wonderful Veterinary.

At first I was a little annoyed with the girl who made my appointment. She seemed short and mechanical. But when I got there everyone was so nice. At that point I realized it was due to how busy they are as to why the girl seemed short, They took real good care of my kitten. I got her for free from craigslist for my daughter. (that was a mistake) She came infested with fleas, tape worm etc. they fixed her right up and were very good with her, she got all her shots and spayed and the entire process including taking care of the worms cost me $130.00. I might mention there was a snowstorm scheduled for the day of her appointment and they called me the day before and said I could bring her the night before to stay over, so I wouldn't be out in the weather. Now that's good people! Read Less
