My family brings their dogs here & the care has always been great. They provide great care for the animals & are very knowledgeable. I have come along for the visits in the past and currently considering bringing my new pup here. I came here to look up previous reviews to get a big picture idea. I am giving 5-stars for the service but would recommend not arguing back with every review you aren’t 100% in agreement with because it’s making your facility look argumentative and defensive, with zero accountability for any review that’s not perfect. Sometimes there is room for improvement. While

So nice and helpful. Very serious about Covid protocols. Seemed genuinely interested in my cat and the best things that could help her. In fact, the only prescription I left with was a list of well-researched over the counter remedies—I appreciated that they didn’t jump straight to prescribing expensive meds. They also sent a follow-up text asking how my cat is doing! So sweet.

We have a very senior rabbit who is almost 12 years old. She recently developed head tilt, and when she also had decreased appetite, they were able to squeeze her in as an emergency visit. My husband took her and he said they were extremely knowledgeable and thorough with their diagnostics. We just moved to the area and will continue taking her here for their rabbit-savvy vets. Thank you!

We are new to the area and based upon recommendations from everyone we met we decided to take Brutus here after he had some episodes of vomiting over the weekend. We tried other emergency hospitals but they were too busy to see him and actually recommended 2nd Street. We were seen as an emergency and though we had somewhat of a wait the doctor, nurses and front office staff were exceptional. We were assured, after a complete evaluation, that Brutus' issue was not one of major concern but a result of him grazing on our new plants! He just needed some medication and for us to get artificial plants

The ONLY place we will ever take our pup! Not only is the staff amazing but they truly care about all the animals there and always make sure our dog leaves happy and healthy! They call after EVERY visit (even if it’s just a well-check) to make sure he’s okay and go above and beyond each and every visit! They’re very diligent about following COVID-19 safety protocols as well which we love!

Have lived in Philly for 12 years. Have used numerous vets for different issues. The doctors and staff here are by far the best we have ever encountered. Very professional and caring. Detail oriented. Great follow up on appointments and our pet’s issues. Readily answer email questions. Can’t say enough positive things!!! Great place for vet care

I will never come back to 2nd street animal hospital. Long story short. I work the overnight shift. I made an appointment for my dog for 1:30 pm . Even when they called to confirm the day before to confirm the appointment. And said 130pm. I showed up day of appointment at 1:13 pm. They tell me I'm late. I tell them no. It's 1:30 PM. Not 1pm. That conversation which was very very very unprofessional goes back and forth for several minutes. They say you can still be seen NOW. Which is at my actual appointment time, but there will e a late fee of $20. I said and explained I will never come back. This

We can't say enough about the quality of services and incredible staff at 2nd street. Every person on staff is clearly an animal lover who will go above and beyond to interact with you and your pet and make you feel comfortable and welcome. Any concerns we've had with our pets' health are always carefully considered and addressed, and they follow-up with us after every visit without fail. They've exceeded our expectations since day 1 and we routinely recommend 2nd street to pet people in the area!
