Dr. Marie was quick to respond and thorough in suggesting treatment for my cat. I am so thankful- I have been so worried about my cat. Now I have additional options to discuss with my vet.

The service was incredibly fast and the vet's suggestions were right on target. This was incredibly helpful given that none of the vets in my area, mine now included, will take off hours calls now.

Quick news: -
  • Ask A Vet Question now has a new site layout!
  • Listen for Dr. Marie on 580 CFRA radio in Ottawa on "Ask the Veterinarian" with John Counsell.
