User Reviews for Feline Hospital
08/15/2008 Posted by janemb35
I have just got my most recent kittie, RocketElla; before her there was Cole, Ziki, Julio, Ernie and Charlie, all of whom have been or are patients of Dr. Ternes et al. at the Feline Hospital. These docs are the most loving and gentle and thorough physicians you could want; in more than 18 years I and my furry friends have been happy with the treatment they have received.
Pros: Thorough attention to detail, kindness to critters and their elderly owners,
Cons: Cannot think of any.

I've taken my cats the the Feline Hospital for more than eighteen years - they're the best. Capable, reliable, and compassionate. Dr. Ternes goes way out of her way to help in an emergency - and does a good job of diagnosing problems early, so the crises have been very few. The office staff are friendly and considerate.
Pros: Great at explaining problems at a level that lay people can understand
Cons: None

Kathleen Ternes and The Feline Hospital staff are wonderful people. They cared for my cats for many years when I lived in Massachusetts (I'm now in rural Arizona). It's an awesome experience when the vet you entrust to care for your beloved pet(s) shows concern and compassion for you, as well. Dr. Ternes is all that and more, and I sincerely wish that I could clone her. My 17-year-old cat, Chico, died yesterday morning. He was still active and very healthy for an old man, but he became critically ill late Saturday night. I called my vet's home at 1:00 a.m. to ask her to euthanize him so he wouldn't have to suffer through the night. (I knew he wasn't going to recover from this and only wanted to alleviate any pain he might have been experiencing.) But she was out of town and wouldn't return for 24 hours, and there was nobody on call for emergencies. So I could only make my sweet cat as comfortable as possible and pray that he passed quickly on his own. Chico apparently died just before I woke up (his body was still warm). My vet's husband said I could bring his body in for cremation and that he would tell his wife what happened when she returned home last night. This is a town of only about 1,100 people; my vet doesn't have a large practice where a person might get lost in the shuffle. But she hasn't even bothered to call me to convey her condolences or to see how I'm doing, notwithstanding the fact that she's been caring for my pets for over two years now and I was a blubbering mess when I saw her husband yesterday. But my loss is apparently no big deal to her, and I'm disgusted. I expect more from my veterinarian, thanks to Dr. Ternes, and this experience only makes me miss her and The Feline Hospital that much more. Dr. Ternes is in the right profession for the right reasons. We need more veterinarians like her in the world. God speed, Chico. I truly loved you and will miss your beautiful face and wonderful personality forever.
Pros: Very compassionate and caring
Cons: None I can think of
