I attended my first vet visit today, although my kitty has been seen by Dr. Binder for over a year now. I was so impressed by the compassion of the staff and their knowledge of every furry family member that came through the door. Everyone was very professional, and the time to explain things for my first time there helped me to better understand my kitty's diagnosis. I would highly recommend this office, and even though it was an hour drive, it was definitely worth going to. Thank you very much everyone!! Read Less

Dr. Binder and all the members of his staff are so kind and friendly. They truly love animals and go out of their way to make both pets and owners feel comfortable. Appointments are easy to make and they do a great job at accommodating rush requests when a problem arises. Dr. Binder has expertly diagnosed and treated various eye problems in my dogs. We're lucky to have this practice in the area! Read Less

So grateful! I was able to get an appointment in short order (new patient), and Dr. Daniel Binder, who introduced himself simply as "Dan," was thorough and exacting in his exam of my dog and thorough and patient in explaining every aspect of his diagnosis, drawing a diagram on his white board and sending us home with a printout of his detailed notes. He greatly put my mind at ease and his staff is top notch. Highly recommended! Read Less

After seeing my regular vet about my dog's funky eye, she recommended I come to Eye Care for Animals to get a more comprehensive exam.  I could not be more impressed with this place and the people who staff it.  From the receptionist, to the vet techs, to Dr.Binder himself, everyone was extremely warm and friendly toward me and my pup.  I called around 9:00 in the morning, explained my situation, and the receptionist found a way to squeeze me in that same afternoon.  As a last minute addition to the day's schedule, I expected to wait a while to be admitted, but I waited no more than five minutes.  As a new client, the receptionist had me fill out one piece of paper with information about myself and my dog and then Gwen the vet tech brought us into the exam room.  She was very sweet and helped to keep my buddy calm while he had his initial exam.  When Dr.Binder came in (again, not more than five minutes later), he introduced himself as Dan and got to work doing his exam while Gwen and another vet tech assisted.  He used a white board to draw a diagram and explain what he thinks is going on with my pup's eye, and made some recommendations.  Before I left the room, he typed up a nice paragraph explaining what we discussed and printed me a copy to take home.  Having this paper at home to read and share when I had more time to process it (typed, rather than scrawled in a hurry as doctor's notes usually are) was so helpful and reassuring.  Before he left he answered my questions and assured me that I could call or make an appointment any time for a follow-up, then shook my hand and moved along.  Gwen came back to the exam room with the recommended prescriptions, explained how to administer them, and even checked us out and scheduled my follow-up appointment from there!  The staff also immediately faxed my pup's write-up to my regular vet (which I know because I followed up with my regular vet when I left and they told me they had already received it).  Even the physical space has been modified to keep pups and their owners calm.  The exam table (made of cold stainless steel that always causes my pup's legs to splay out in all directions) had a little throw rug on top of it so my little guy could stand on it without slipping. The seat in the exam room is actually a bench with a padded top so nervous dogs can sit with their owners.  Everything about this place is friendly and efficient.  The staff has thought about the needs of their clients (both human and animal) and adjusted the way they run things to be accommodating.  I wish all medical professionals ran their practices like this!

Eye care for animals is absolutely amazing, they get the job done right and they're staff is wonderful, Dr Daniel Binder did an outstanding job on my Great Danes cherry eye, he couldn't have done a better job. He also took his time to draw us a picture of what a cherry eye is and what he will do to fix it. I also love how they explain every step of the procedure written on paper so that you know what to expect and what to do during recovery. My dog is healing wonderfully and I am so glad to have trusted eye care for animals. Read Less

My family had an exceptional experience with Dr. Binder and the staff! Our dog needed ocular surgery, and Dr. Binder thoroughly explained our options in a professional yet caring manner. The staff was very welcoming and comforting. We did not have to wait around for anyone. The results of the surgery were perfect. We had done a lot of research on what to expect, and this practice went above and beyond. I very highly recommend this to anyone who needs care for their pet's eyes. Read Less

Took my cat to the Phoenix office when I noticed a black spot in his eye. They recommended laser surgery. It was expensive, but went smoothly. Unfortunately the spots recurred and they recommended that the eye be removed. This was a big decision, and another big expense, but they were all very supportive. Dr. Barrett took the time to explain everything to me. The vet techs and front office staff were all very nice and took the time to make follow up calls after the surgeries. As soon as the pathology report came back they called with the results: Melanoma. Stage 1, so we caught it early and my cat has a good prognosis. Please don't ignore any irregularities in your pets' eyes--bring them here for a check up. Read Less

Drove here to see Dr. Binder on two separate occasions from CT with my 7-year-old freckly-eyed, orange tiger cat. The morning of the first appointment, my cat's eye was heartbreaking. It had become enlarged and cloudy just a few short hours before our appointment and my local vet didn't know what was going on - you could *barely* see her pupil. Long story short, my cat's eye was removed a week later and the post-op biopsy revealed it was melanoma. Side note - Be prepared to deal with an abrasive/cold receptionist, but then move on. Because Dr. Binder is awesome. He's smart, trustworthy, and he really went above and beyond wherever he could. As a distressed pet parent, this was everything. I wasn't able to do the enucleation surgery with Dr. Binder because his estimate was $2,000 and my vet did it for under $1,000, but if I weren't a grad student and had more money, I would have wanted him to do the surgery and I'm sure he would have done an amazing job. Even though I didn't have the surgery done with Dr. Binder, he was very helpful throughout the process. He writes you a letter at the end of your appointment, giving his expert opinion and explaining what was discussed, which is SO nice and helpful! During our first appointment, we decided to try one week of intensive eye treatment (drops and balm) before removing the eye, and then at our one-week follow-up, he agreed that her eye should be removed. He was very understanding of my decision to have my vet do the surgery. During the two appointments we had, he was extremely warm, friendly, and competent. He was the first one to suspect that my kitty had cancer, and having his expert opinion helped put my mind at ease through a very difficult time. After my local vet received her test results, they had them sent to Dr. Binder's office. He then called me while he was away on a trip, and he helped walk me through the test results and the current research on feline melanoma. If you are a pet parent and can afford to see a specialist, I couldn't recommend Dr. Binder enough! Read Less

My pittie mix was diagnosed with glaucoma by our vet and she really was very sick.  However, in the two days it took to see Dr. Binder she was almost all better.  He was very reassuring and respectful but since our dog didn't really need further treatment since she just had a mystery reaction to something and not glaucoma, I'll tell you some things that really impressed me.  He let us know the price of tests he wanted to run right up front.  He made sure we really knew that if our dog got worse to call anytime (and there's a sign on the front door saying the vet is available 24 hours a day for a consultation) and they check you out in the exam room instead of at the desk. Our dog can be aggressive to other dogs so we love that we don't have to wait around hoping she doesn't have an incident.  I hope all the doggies have healthy eyes, but if they don't, take them to Eye Care for Animals in Warwick.

I was very impressed with the friendly staff. Most of all I appreciate the gentle caring and clear expertise I witnessed in handling the eye examination on my very frightened little dog. The room ambiance and their voices were so soothing, I was almost mesmerized myself! Read Less

We are so very lucky to have found Eye Care for Animals. Our Local vet directed us to Eye Care for Animals and Dr. Binder. Our Yorkshire developed cataracts in both eyes. She is a very small dog of only 3 pounds and became blind in both eyes.We had no idea what we were going to do or what could be done. Dr Binder and his staff are top notch professionals when it comes to your loved ones. He tells you like it is with no fluff. He told us exactly what he could do for our dog Athena and what we could expect in the way of results. It has been a long road in recovery for Athena, but has been a very successful one.We can't thank Dr. Binder enough for restoring the sight for Athena. She is able to see once again. Thank you once again Dr. Binder Read Less

What an amazing Doctor (Dr Urbanz), technician and facility. Rocco is not an easy patient to deal with and really only loves a few people. They were kind and gentle, professional and put a very upset owner at ease. Fantastic place! Read Less

Excellent eye care for pets in the Albuquerque office, They helped my Red Heeler Capone keep his sight in one eye after losing vision completely in one eye! He lived a long healthy life and was a beautiful companion! These people are caring, professional and treat your pet with respect and wonderful care. A special shout out to Dr. Gavin Kennard, DVD! Again, thank you! Read Less

Awesome place! Super friendly and compassionate staff. Dr. Binder took his time with us and made sure we understood all options. Usually you feel rushed at doctors offices so they can cram in the next patient but not the case here! We drove almost an hour to get here and had we known how wonderful they would be, we would have driven half way across the U.S.! Highly recommended! Read Less

I have a big bug eye Boston terrier who is in here a lot! He is always poking and scratching his eye. The eye care you get here is far superior to what you would get from a general vet. I always call eye care first for all eye issues. I get into a room fast. My exams go fast. I get checked out fast. It's a great low stress environment for my dog. The staff is friendly and knows my dog well. I also feel the prices are reasonable for being a specialist! I never feel like I'm going in debt over my dogs special eye needs. I'm so happy I found Dr.Burwell! Read Less

Kind and professional staff. Thorough exam to diagnose my dog's eye issue, which turned out to be something minor that could be resolved with medications. Staff demonstrate care for all animals and concern for being accurate with care and diagnosis.Read Less

Cannot recommend enough. I didn't work with Dr. Abrams directly, but the other doctor and the staff at Eye Care for Animals are top notch. Very professional and on top of their game. Our pug had a horrible eye injury a year ago and when we moved to RI, we had to find new care. He ended up having the eye removed after making every reasonable effort to save it. The staff here was so helpful and knowledgeable throughout the process. We were given options and everything was explained in detail. I felt like they really tried to give us different options for care and to save money when possible. Follow up calls to check on our guy were really helpful and we were able to get answers over the phone to avoid the 40 minute drive when possible. Really, I can't say enough good things about this place. They even gave us advice on doctors to check out when we move again next month. Dealing with eye injuries can be stressful and expensive and the staff here tries to help make it as painless as possible. I wish we could take them with us when we move! Read Less

Those of us fortunate enough to have pets in our lives who are unfortunate enough to have troubles with their eyes are very lucky to have Dr. Abrams' care. His approach is highly professional, his manner kind and gentle, and his expertise unfailing. The veterinary staff, which is usually a caring and sensitive lot, are especially organized and responsive. Appointments are prompt, follow up is thorough and availability is never a question. This is a true gem of a resource for RI. Read Less

Dr. Abrams and his staff have been great with both our dog (and us!) through the process of treating our dogs eye health. Everyone at his practice has been very professional and a joy to be around. We truly appreciate the extra steps they've taken to give the best service and support. It has been a wonderful experience and we will recommend Veterinary Opthamology Services, Inc. to anyone with full confidence that they will be treated with as much kindness and respect as we were.
