"Our geriatric kitty was losing weight but otherwise seemed just fine. Dr Tad called right away and spent over 30 minutes talking with me about our kitty’s history and habits and asking great questions. In the end, all was well! Dr Tad reassured me that this was typical “old lady kitty” behavior. He also told me what to watch out for. No unnecessary tests, just simple, thorough relational conversation. I can't recommend him enough!"
~Nacy B.
"Our cat was not acting right. So we called Dr. Tad. He came to our house promptly. Are worse nightmare came true, our Tubbys had cancer. Tad was able to peacefully send her off to heaven in her own home. Dr Tad made the whole experience comfortable for Tubbys and our family. Thank you Dr. Tad."
