Dr. Lorie Portugal is great! I've never had a Vet get down on the floor and talk to, calm and examine my pets. Excellent with diagnosing and caring for all pets. Critter Care also boards.

I've been taking my dog here for several years. I'm handicap and they do everything they can to make it easier for me to make sure my dog is treated and taken care of. Whenever I take my dog in, it's always professional and always in a timely manner. When something is wrong the Dr takes her time to explain everything to me, and in a way you can understand it. Their is no other veterinary that I would take my dog to. I would refer everyone to Critter Care Veterinary Hospital.

Dr Lorie and her team at Critter Care have always been there for my dogs, whether a phone call to ease a concern (and there's been many over the years) or a visit to Critter Care. My family has been going here since we moved into our home 15 years ago and wouldn't think of using another veterinarian. It's a win when you find someone that treats your "kids" like you do, and you trust them with their well being and health, and Dr Lorie is up front and only recommends what she would do if the patient was her own, all I can d... read more

Critter Care and their staff have been excellent in my experience. I have 3 dogs ... a St. Bernard, a Golden Retriever, and a Miniature Schnauzer. All have been under Dr. Portugal's care for the past year. Our experience could not have been better.

Honestly, I just read the three reviews below, and it's pretty obvious to me that there are axes being ground - everything they say would be impossible at Critter Care. I've been going for almost twenty years, and have never been disappointed with anything at Critter Care. Not only is the office clean, the staff is kind and courteous, but also the professional expertise of Dr. Portugal is second to none. Also, other vets charge an arm and a leg, but Critter Care keeps their costs down by purposely having a small office. Wou... read more

I`m not sure why there are negative comments. I have been going there since they opened and have always felt I received the best of care. I used to go to a vet in West Chester. They were high tech and expensive. Dr. Lori tells me what she feels is wrong and starts treatment, that wouldn`t hurt if she was wrong,and is helping relieve symptoms immediately. Some people don`t like not going in an exam room, my dogs and cats hated those sterile rooms and tables. They`re much more comfy on the floor in the waiting room. It`s clean... read more

Dr. Portugal and her staff have always been friendly and accommodating to the needs of my pet cat. My cat had some digestive issues and Dr. Portugal and the staff were very sweet, kind, and gentle with him. I trust their practice and knowledge in helping whatever problem I bring to them.

If you don't care about the well being of your pet then by all means take them here. This vet is ONLY interested in money & not caring for animals. I brought my dog in only to be diagnosed with Renal Kidney Failure. I never received a written quote until I arrived to pick her up. Was only told verbal quotes over the phone, which changed when I arrived and the amount was larger. When questioned about the reason for the change the staff was uninterested in going over the bill with me, all the while keeping me from seeing ... read more
