Dr Monaco is a knowledgeable, professional (but friendly) vet who always keeps my pets best interest first. She explains everything clearly without being condescending. Ellie loves her!

I brought my dog in for a dental cleaning at the recommendation of the vet. I’ve been bringing my dog there since a pup for about 7 years. During every exam, I was told my dog was in great shape and the dental cleanings can be pushed off until he’s older. At 7.5 years old, I took my dog in during November for the dental monthly special and within 45 minutes of dropping him off, the vet calls and tells me that my dog needs 15 tooth extractions. Not only was I extremely concerned but upset that all this time, I thought I was taking excellent care of my dog’s teeth only to be informed 1/3 of his teeth have to be removed. The procedure went from $550 to $1200. I requested the X-rays and any documentation from the procedure for my records but it’s been 2 weeks and the office staff have me in a holding pattern by saying the dental technicians have to send that file. Every time I call, the office person tells me that “there was no previous note” on file. I’ll happily share my Verizon phone logs to show how many times I called. Side note: scheduling and wait times are ridiculous, prepare to standby 30-70 minutes before your actual appointment. I understand we’re dealing with pets and sometimes things take longer than expected but it’s 2021… Find more staff or a better office management system to track and schedule appointments. At a minimum, provide an update of appointments that will be delayed so folks aren’t waiting forever with scared pets in the office. Find a different vet if you really care about your pets. Update 2: took Milo in for his 2nd dental cleaning in February 2026, they found a tumor in his throat, it’s cancerous and he’s being put to sleep this week. What’s the point of going to the vet, keeping all his appointments, spending exuberant amounts of time and money for this outcome.

Super easy to make an appointment, the staff are very nice, and the vets care a lot about their patients. I feel like my concerns are always heard, validated, and cared for by every doctor I’ve seen. (Dr. Tracey, Dr. Monaco, & Dr. Roufail) They were all amazing, I recommend them. Great care, they clearly love animals. I will definitely be bringing my pets here in the future, thank you HBAC & all the staff for taking such good care of Athena!
