Neurology is AWESOME!

Neurology is AWESOME! Rocco has been seen by Dr. JP McCue several times over the last few months. Sadly he is very sick. Your entire staff has been professional, caring and attentive to both Rocco and I.

Our beloved dog, Foxy

This story starts off very sad but has a very happy ending. On 2/7/2010 our beloved dog Foxy was hit by a car (she's a mini dachshund). She had traumatic brain injury, pulmonary contusions, and she was comatose from sunday night till some time on wed.

My 9 year old dog, Lara

I took her to the local vet. she had a temp so they took an xray of her abdomen. what they saw was she had and infection in her uterus. the vet said she had to get to the animal hospital asap.

Charlie, the Golden Retriever

My wonderful Golden Retriever was only 6 months old when he ate a thermal wrap and developed severe iron poisoning. I rushed him to AMC and was met by kind and carying doctors, nurses and technitians. Charlie was criticaaly ill, at the time the worst iron poisoning AMC had seen. With some quick thinking the doctor got a hold of a medicine from a neighboring human hospital used for children with the same condition. It was very touch and go for many days. I was so relieved when I went to see charlie and a social worker came in and met with me...I needed the support and AMC was there to help.

Charlie is now 8 and has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. I was thinking about our experience with almost losing him as a pup today and wanted to say thank you for saving him...and me...so I could have 7+ glorious years with him.

Thanks,

Sarah
