  1. I am grateful for the services and caring he not only provided to our dog Lola but the emotional support he gave my wife. Further to that he communicated with Lola's DVM in New York to learn more about Lola and share his findings. Without reservation I recommend him for anyone whose animal needs a cardiologist
