This facility and people are welcoming and wonderful! It is clean and comfortable. Love Dr. Boorstin! He takes the time to explain and make sure all your questions and concerns are answered. He is gentle and caring. I noticed the white noise machine in the exam room which I think helped my dog keep calm during her visit. Nice touch! The technician ( I unfortunately don’t remember her name) was so sweet to my dog.

Very happy with the overall care CVCA always provides. Compassionate care of my dog while she is there, also we appreciate how well Dr Pasieka always explains, in detail, results of tests and prognosis. Everyone is always very kind and caring and professional

I cannot thank you all enough for being thorough and compassionate and caring and welcoming. The set up in the clinic is amazing: the little touches as cute pictures, the ocean wave sound, the friendly and knowledgeable staff definitely was amazing! Compassion and thorough examination of my pet put me at ease and an hour drive to your facility was definitely worth it!

I appreciate the love and compassion I felt from Jessica and Dr. Boorstin. Everyone was so organized and made everything easy to understand. I also liked that I was sent all of the information from our visit. I love great communication. I greatly appreciate everything that was done for Diesel. I felt very comfortable and welcomed. It is really hard to find such a caring team of people to deal with. It was great to deal with everyone there.

I was really scared and the caring way everyone I encountered handled our visit helped to melt away my fears. They used facts and education so I could understand just how My cat was doing. I also appreciated the explanation of what My Cat’s heart was doing so I could understand the various tests done to understand his situation. The fact that everyone I encountered wore a mask was important to me also. The way John Michael explained how a cats blood pressure is taken and the other procedures set the positive tone for the entire visit.

Every aspect of the appointment was handled efficiently. All of the staff members were very professional yet simultaneously friendly. I felt that I received a thorough explanation of my cats condition, conveyed in simple enough terms that I could understand. After the appointment was over, I was impressed by how quickly the results arrived in my email inbox. I cant think of any way that the appointment could have been better.

CVCA Leesburg is wonderful and I would definitely recommend. I loved how everyone took care of my very nervous dog. They were very sweet with her. The doctor was very clear and helpful with her explanations of tests, results, and plan of care.

While I wish I did not have to visit CVCA, I have been thoroughly impressed with all the staff. Their office is nicer and more technically advanced than a lot of human doctor offices. Every time I come, I feel like they are genuinely concerned about my dog and give their full attention. They are quick to call back when I have called with prescription issues, appointment scheduling and other concerns. Amazing communication all round!

For such a sad time, the experience makes me wish we could use this office as our primary vet. I appreciated the kindness and compassion as this is such a hard time for us. My pup is my first baby and seeing him sick is the worst. John Michael and Dr Holdt were amazing in explaining everything and just taking the time to show us kindness, extra time to really explain in detail, and cared about Tyson as much as we do!

Review №15

You have a great organization and I would recommend you to anyone who had a pet in need. You seem to genuinely care about my pups issues and you spend a lot of time with her. I appreciate how you discuss the options and what would be in her best interest. Your assistants are friendly too which means a lot.

I have never seen such amazing team work, your staff not only made me feel at ease, but made our boy Coal feel as comfortable has possible. ( He is a bit fearful when going to the vet. ) They could see that I was tearful and brought me tissues and gave words of comfort. Bonus they loved over our boy, and said how handsome and good he was being .Job Well Done by everyone The compassion and concern for not only our beloved furbaby but for us as well. His whole team that day was amazing!!!

I was totally impressed. Everyone was kind, professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. The vet was informative, thorough, and compassionate. My pet couldnt have better care. All of my concerns and fears, were addressed and alleviated. Patches has a serious heart condition. However, with medication and monitoring him with great and loving care, he will live the best life he has left under these sad and difficult circumstances. I thank the entire staff from the bottom of my heart for everything that you have done for Patches and will do for him in the future. ♥

The team at CVCA is exceptional - they are so kind and thorough. As a referring veterinarian, I feel very grateful to have their guidance in managing my cardiac patients.

This was the fourth time I’ve taken one of my pets to CVCA for a pre-anesthesia cardiology exam due to my pets’ heart murmur. The doctors and staff are all very caring and patient with my nervous, pet. They really take the time to explain your pet’s condition and prognosis. I couldn’t be happier with the care my pets and I have received from CVCA Leesburg over the years!

Thank you all for taking care of Bucky these past 4 years and making sure he continues to do well. While never easy to have a dog with a heart condition, you all have been compassionate, explain things clearly and I know that you are looking out for Buckys best interest. Look forward to continuing to work with you so that Bucky lives his best life.

I want to that Dr. Pasieka, John Michael, Nicole, and Jenna Welter as well as staff who spoke to me when making and reminding me of the appointment. I wish all animal and human medical establishments conducted themselves the way you do. All staff whom I interacted with were caring, highly knowledgeable, wonderful and effective communicators, very quick to respond to questions and concerns, and conducted themsleves in a professional manner.

I was very impressed that CVCA was able to notify me that someone had cancelled an appointment so I could get my baby in to see them quicker. The staff was very responsive! compassion toward our fur babies! The staff was very easy to work with and the Doctor emailed me results right away.

Review №29

I was so impressed with the entire operation and visit, from the excellent communication of information regarding COVID protocols prior to the appointment, to the ease of getting in and to the exam room, to the kind and excellent care Sawyer received. Dr. Pasieka was very efficient, very caring with Sawyer and very good at explaining everything in a way I could easily understand. John Michael is at the top of my list of favorite veterinary assistants, he was so calming and friendly, he put me immediately at ease. Im not sure Sawyer felt the same way but hey, hes a 19 year old cat at a cardiology appt. so only so much can be expected! Both John Michael and Dr. Pasieka went to great lengths to talk to Sawyer, give him nose rubs, keep him calm and just generally be sweet to my hissing and confused kitty, which I greatly appreciate. The long drive was well worth it and we will be back.

My dog Winnie has been treated by Dr. Pasieka for about two years for heart disease. Dr. Pasieka is very professional, very knowledgeable, and kind and gentle with my old dog. I believe that my dog has had a longer life and a better quality of life due to Dr. Pasieka. The staff is wonderful as well. Everyone is very nice.

Not knowing what to expect in the age of COVID, I was pleasantly surprised that the Dr. would be coming out the parking lot to explain his findings.

Having a pet with health issues is difficult enough, so we are very fortunate to have a pet medical facility with such excellent people and technology as CVCA.

Thank you CVCA for everything - we are very grateful for the service you provide! We need to note Dr. Boorstins kindness and patience as we processed our pups diagnosis and asked him a million questions. Extremely knowledgable and professional staff, could not have asked for a better experience! Any cardiac issues with your animals is a stressful and scary experience - we left todays appointment feeling confident that CVCA expertly diagnosed whats going on and gave us the very best care plan with the utmost compassion. Very highly recommended!Update Sept 2021: Another fantastic visit to CVCA! NOVA is so lucky to have access to such quality cardiac care and the staff make such a difference in pet owners lives. The compassion, expertise, and time the staff continuously and generously give to pet parents at every visit is unmatched and greatly appreciated! CVCA has excellent COVID-19 protocols in place and will make accommodations based upon your comfort level. Dr. Boorstin came outside to give us the update and advice on how to continue caring for our pup and we couldnt be more grateful!

Dr. Paseika, Dr. Tyrrell and Donna are some of the most caring individuals that I have ever met. My Pom was diagnosed with severe cardiac disease in January 2018 and with their guidance, medication and care, he lived a very happy life for 1.8 years....he was a warrior. If your pet needs cardiac care, you are in great hands at CVCA in Leesburg.

Appointment at CVCA Leesburg each year for dog’s heart check is always a great visit. Despite current restrictions, information provided in pre-visit email was easy to understand and follow. Process wise CVCA does a great job and puts owners at ease for what to expect. The staff is thoughtful, caring and takes the time to always review visit findings and next steps thoroughly. As a dog owner that has seen almost every type of veterinary specialist, I greatly appreciate the attention to detail as well as the love shown to my fur baby. Thank you!

Review №76

I was referred to CVCA by an emergency veterinarian due to an abnormal heart rhythm in my 12 year old dog. My dog suffered from severe anxiety while he was there, panting profusely. Instead of halting the tests and treating the anxiety, they continued with the tests until my dog ended up in emergency with bloat. He hasn’t been the same since bloat and this is the second time we have him at the emergency vet from a complication from his experience here.After my dog was released from your care he went into respiratory distress within hours. We called out of extreme concern and received no call back. He has since passed from being in distress. I will not respond to your request for a follow up to this review if I couldn’t even get a call back when my dog that was under your care was in distress.

Review №77

I cant say enough good things about my experience with the Leesburg office of CVCA. To start the wait for an appointment for any CVCA office was a month or more with very long waitlist. I called the Leesburg office and they fit me in the next week. Dr. Boorstin came in to the office this week to help out is my understanding. The appointment was right on time and very quick and efficient! My doggie gets very anxious with new people and new environments and shakes profusely. She seemed completely comfortable with the technician who took her in and apparently loved Dr. Boorstin and she doesnt like many people - that says a lot! They brought her back to me immediately after her evaluation rather than keep her until I spoke to the doctor and checked her out (as most Vets do) so much less traumatic for her. Having my dog feel comfortable means a lot to me. Dr. Boorstin was very nice and thorough and explained all his findings and recommendations very well. Every person I spoke to, from the person who made the appointment, checked us in, technician and doctor, was very nice and helpful. I highly recommend this office and was extremely grateful for the care they gave my dog! I rarely ever post about any business but was so happy about how I and my dog were treated that I felt I needed to share with others.

I cannot say enough great things about CVCA in Leesburg. Dr. Tyrrell is absolutely amazing and so are the vet techs who work with him. There is no doubt whatsoever that they genuinely care about animals. I also never doubt what they say needs to be done and what medications my dog needs. My 4 pound Chihuahua is my BABY, I am very protective of her and I 100% trust them when shes in their care. I always leave knowing my girl has the best chance at life from their guidance and help. I promise you will not be disappointed

CVCA in Leesburg are the best. We take both of our furry kids to see Dr Tyrell and Dr Borstein. My dogs love their visits. The staff is amazing, caring and truly show that they care about their clients as much as the patients. Theyre always friendly and you can tell they love their job. The cardiologists are truly wonderful and extremely knowledgeable. I would gladly refer anyone who is looking for the best cardiologist to go to CVCA in Leesburg. Love you guy . Midnight and Miracle

Review №94

The people who work there are nice enough and give you plenty of information, but the cost was overwhelming. $610 for being there for 20-30 minutes to have a 3 month old kittens heart checked out. Unfortunately, we will not be able to bring our cat back to see how his progress is because we can not afford it, so we will have to hope for the best and that our long time vet will be able to tell if his condition is going in a better direction. It breaks my heart to have to accept that. After bringing him home we are also starting from square one with re-acquainting him with our other cat, as the smell on him from being at the hospital is so strong that she does not recognize him at all.
