Saucon Valley Animal Hospital

We were understandably full of anxiety and grief when our senior cat Dayhunter was diagnosed with fibrosarcoma. We decided to seek holistic care to support his health. Dr. Draper was calming, kind, and helped us ALL feel a little better.

Based on 1 visit, found vet and staff competent, kind & courteous; facilities clean & well maintained; fees reasonable. I will go back

Been taking my Lab there for a number of years now, after having been unhappy with several vets closer to my home and receiving this as a recommendation by our very knowledgeable trainer. We live in Allentown and actually go all the way to Hellertown to see Dr. Draper. I haven't at all experienced the poor service of the other reviewer, and P.S. to animal lovers, wouldn't you sacrifice convenient night time and Saturday hours for the best care? The hours can make it tough with working full time, however my poochie is well worth having to make up hours at work, or take a couple hours time off. Dr. Draper is very knowledgeable and experienced. I have never had the staff be rude to me, there are one or two that aren't overly friendly, but on the flip side aren't rude or cold. Additionally, Dr. Draper is one of the very few in the area that will take a holistic approach, going the conventional medicine route if need be. The important thing is that he respects your wishes regardless, whether it be holistic or conventional, whether you follow the strict vaccine schedule, or choose to do titers (checking blood yearly to see if immunity is still there from the last vaccine, instead of automatically immunizing again each year unnecessarily). Draper has also always squeezed us in at last minute notice when we??ve have problems arise (and usually at the later end of schedule so we don??t have to take much time off of work). Overall, pleased with this practice.

The hospital provides professional care including holistic medicine and acupuncture. The staff are so helpful and very caring. Overall, it's a fantastic place if you're seeking exceptional care. This is the place to go if you place quality above all else.

Pros: Experienced, Knowledgable Doctor

Since they made staff changes (approximately 1.5 years ago) I found them to be uncooperative and inconvenient. M-Th 9 to 5?!?! Are you kidding me? What about people that work M-F 8 to 5. No Saturday hours? And they don't care that the patient is inconvenienced.

Pros: Not one!

Cons: They only work M - Th, 9 to 5. Forget about trying to get a Saturday morning appointment!
