I brought Toby in at 3:30 am, panicked and scared, but we were met with kindness and calmness. Dr. Little and a technician performed a few tests and gave me an honest review on what I was looking at for his diagnosis and cost of treatment. I left Toby there for about a week for in-house rehab, where my worries were eased by twice a day phone call updates and pictures of Toby’s progress. Toby came in not being able to walk on his hind legs and left the facility walking on his own. My Toby was loved on so much and treated with the utmost care. Thank you so much, Southeast Veterinary Neurology!
