⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Dr. Curcio and his staff were amazing in helping my cat. I was actually able to rest at night knowing he was in the best hands. Thank you so much NGVS!

This is several years later but one Thanksgiving eve in 2023, we rushed Masha to this ER vet. They kept her overnight and made sure the med she got into did not take her life. It was a very scary time for us but the vet kept us in the loop and on Thanksgiving day we were able to pick her up. Best Thanksgiving ever! Thank you!

My experience was good, my payment was high, but it was close to the other quotes I received and my dogs 2 followup appointments were included in the price. They take the time to work with you on the quote, giving you a high or low option depending on what they see during the surgery. I did feel compassion from the team but at the end of the day it's a business

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Losing a pet is one of the hardest things you will ever do as a pet owner. Our sweet beagle, Penny pup, had an inoperable tumor in her bladder. The staff at North Georgie Veterinary Specialists helped me understand the situation, gave me my options, and held my hand thru the devastating heartbreak of saying goodbye to my best friend. The doctors at NGVS gave me medication and advice on how to make her last few weeks with us easy and pain-free, and I am so appreciative of their support and guidance. I am so grateful for the kindness of the staff from the receptionists, to the nurses and doctors who helped me both before and after we had to say goodbye. The staff at NGVS went above and beyond to care for us and I can’t say thank you enough for helping me to preserve the memory of my sweet pup. You and your fur babies are in good hands with this hospital even after hard decisions need to be made.

I cannot say enough good about this wonderful hospital. We took our very, very sick Westie puppy in for treatment of pneumonia in both lungs. From the staff at the front desk to the technicians to the doctors, all were so compassionate to us and our Maggie. She was given superb care and attention. We called multiple times a day, every day, to check on her. No matter who we spoke with, everyone was kind and caring and gave us detailed updates on her condition/progress. Dr. Surdyk is an exceptional doctor and she and her team saved our precious girl. We will forever be grateful to all the wonderful people at North Georgia Veterinary Specialists.
