Yelp Review: "I brought my GSD in today, she has a problem with fistulas and appears to be growing a tumor. They thoroughly checked her out, did all they could to figure if it actually is a tumor. My dog loved Dr. Fistein and let the doctor stick a needle in her. She usually tries to nip in defense when hurt. This time she flinched but that's it. This is huge... She even once straight up became aggressive towards a doctor so yes, her being trusting says so much about Doctor Fistein. We still don't have all the answers since it did not puss out even though it feels liquidly, plus the biopsy was inconclusive. I'll post up again when I take her back to get it cut out for a more thorough investigation. Her fistulas are under control at least. So... Next posting is how well they handle our next visit when my dog goes under. Oh... One big Warning, the front office is a wee bit disorganized, they didn't know about the records that I had my previous vet fax nor did they know we were new patients despite disclosing that when I made the appointment, etc. Not a big deal and yet they should get that under control. This also does not representation the level of care they provide in the exam rooms. When it comes to the important stuff it appears I can't ask for better. That's why they earn five stars. I really like Dr. Fistein, my dog really likes her and she did a great job checking her out."
