Red Bank Veterinary Hospital Blog

Compassionate doctors, specialists of all kinds. Have used them for years and they have always exceeded expectations. A bit pricey, but you cannot put a dollar value on the best care for your best friend.

We have been patients at RBVH for 12+ years. We have had 9 Newfoundlands during that time. We have had 3 who were, over the course of years, very ill. We came to RBVH one night with our Gunnar with a ruptured spleen. The ER vet diagnosed him immediately, called the covering surgeon during the night and she performed surgery and saved his life. Lived to be 12!! Our Emmett bloated at 7 -- again, diagnosed right away, did not need surgery and he was discharged and came home healthy. Lived to 12 1/2!! Tess had Cushing's Disease -- cared for by Dr. Trotter. Dr. Trotter is so accessible and so cares about his patients! I think the previous comments from pet owners saying that it's all about money is preposterous. I don't think I could begin to tell you about the times that RBVH has tried to SAVE us money by advising us about rushing to perform tests, etc. As a pet sitter, I have seen many different vet offices. Nothing, and absoutely nothing, compares to Red Bank VH. Most, if not all, of my clients go to RBVH and are very happy ...

We are so fortunate to have been referred to RBVH for our dachshund who suffers from IVDD. Although his initial disc surgery was done at another hospital, the follow up care was less than desirable, and no rehab was offered. We were sent home with a paralyzed dog and told to "wait and see". With the help and support of a friend whose dog suffers from the same disease, we contacted Kirsty Oliver at RBVH Rehab center and everything changed for us. Words fail when trying to describe the gratitude we feel toward the professional and caring individuals who have guided us down the stressful and sometimes complicated path of recovery. Our dog has received hydrotherapy, acupuncture, laser, and is seen with a "team" approach to his care which includes a GP vet, and neurologist, and the rehab staff. We are treated with empathy and kindness, and the knowledge that our dog is receiving the very best care available is priceless. You will never find a better team than this one (and believe me we've seen a few). I have never posted an endorsement for anything or anyone but felt compelled to do so in the event that someone, like me, is seeking assistance for their beloved pet. You are in good hands here!
