Veterinary House Calls

Dr. Stern took the time to come to my place, sit with my pets, and let them feel comfortable enough around him before he started any procedures at all. He wasn’t rushed, didn’t treat me like a ‘crazy cat person’ because I own three cats, and he was by far the most thoughtful veterinarian I’ve ever visited. Knowledgeable, caring, and a total pro. His prices were great, cheaper than I anticipated, and he got my pet on the correct dosage and at a better pharmacy. Can’t say enough good things about Dr. Stern!

Well, let me add my rave review. Dr. Stern is great. My dogs were calm and perfectly at ease with him. He was on time and even squeezed in an extra rabies shot for one of them I hadn’t asked him to see. Transferring all 4 of my dogs to him. His price is incredibly reasonable. Next month a greyhound is getting her teeth cleaned by him. What a treasure!

Dr. Stern is Tucson’s pet owners’ best kept secret.
My kitty is very skittish, and I feel just awful about taking her to the vet. She knows somethings up, and then I bring out that scary box and pull her out from her comfy hiding place under the bed and put her in the weird place that’s always too hot and makes lots of noises and things are going by really fast and then we get to the other strange place that smells like animals and there are things barking and people talking and sometimes a big scary creature comes up and sniffs her cage and then a random person comes in and pokes and prods at her and then we get back into the hot box that moves and then we’re home again, and she’s so exhausted and traumatized from the experience that she just sleeps under the bed for hours.
So, I called Veterinary House Calls and Dr. Stern came over, saving us from having to subject Sophie to that nightmare. He was very gentle with her, she was surprisingly calm and even came out ten minutes after he left as if to say, «Where’d our new friend go?»
I’d like to second Heather T.‘s comment by saying I was pleasantly surprised by the billing. I am always cautious of vets as I’ve been overcharged and recommended surgeries and procedures that were exorbitant and unnecessary. Dr. Stern was very thorough and reassuring in his assessment of Sophie, and it was very affordable.
Should Sophie need a check up in the future, I’ll definitely be calling Dr. Stern.

I will mimic another reviewer by saying as long as DREW STERN is working, HE IS MY MAN.

My mother in-​law introduced me to this veterinarian. You call in, and his receptionist gets your name and number. Within an hour, Dr. Stern calls you, makes sure he is going to the right place, and makes sure he knows what pets he’s taking care of. He does charge for gas, which depends on how far he has to travel to your house, but there is no office fee because, well, he’s going to your house. Everything on his sheet is itemized, so there is no mystery charges.
Dr. Stern is amazing with animals; he gave my husband’s cat her first shot in mid-​air because she was such a squirmer.
He is also quite witty. I mentioned that my husband’s friends forbade him from training one of our cats from walking on her back legs because they were afraid she would evolve thumbs and take over the world. He then quipped that we should have her run on the republican ticket because she would be better qualified than some of those running.
