The vets of Wissahickon and the entire staff definitely love what they do. Every pet is greeting with a smile and treated in a gentle,caring ,way.

We adopted a dog in July 2025. She was around six years old. Shortly after adopting when he found a bump on her vulva area. Turns out it was a mast Cell tumor. Our primary care vet were not suited to remove the tumor. We went to another place and the cost was astronomical. We contacted Wissahickon creek And not only were they very reasonably priced, they were amazing with my dog. From the moment, Dr. yard came into the room she sat on the floor and made sure my dog was comfortable. They explained in detail the procedure, and did such a great job. Even though I’ve only been there a couple times, I got a great sense of relief that my dog was in good hands. I would recommend them to anyone
