Apologies for the length, but how do you show appreciation for 23 years of extraordinary care without a lot of words. When you’re a pet parent, your obligations to these beloved furry members of the family are quite simple - make them very happy, treat them very well, and make sure their medical needs are very well taken care of. I became a client of Heart of Chelsea many years ago. Little did I know then that my choice of vet would ensure that my kids would be getting the very best care from the most loving and experienced people. The staff, from front desk, vet techs, doctors and the lovely people who ensure the hospital is spotless are family to me and my pets. Over the years they have all been there from the routine to emergencies and so importantly, the agonizing times of a long-term illness. Let me share an experience, that while many years ago still epitomizes the values and how the practice is still managed. One evening my cat was in extreme distress. I was terrified and in utter panic, but had the number of our long-term doctor. He answered the phone, and immediately jumped on a call with the urgent care hospital. My 🐾❤️🐾 was rushed in and received life saving care. It was long after that I heard the doctor was actually at the theater when I had called. He quickly left and ensured my baby was getting the help she needed. He never mentioned it himself; one of the front desk staff told me. Oh, talking about the front desk people, how wonderful they all are. They’re expert at triage and quickly know how to prioritize calls. There’s a full, highly qualified and caring team approach, with the superb vet techs partnering with the doctors so you never feel your pet is not receiving the best care. Thank you, and the boxes of donuts I’ve dropped off can never match what the team at HOC has done for my furry kids. Love you guys so much.

I cannot speak highly enough about Dr Leuthold. While she was not my puppy’s original vet, when he had an incident where he broke a bone in his paw she was exactly what both my puppy and I needed. She is warm, kind, helpful, patient, and thorough. She constantly checked on me and Teddy (my puppy) after sending us home from the initial incident. After almost every visit, she made it a priority to call and check in on his progress/behavior the following day. With his break, he needed to be back every three to five days and Dr Leurhhold made sure to make herself available. She made us feel so comfortable and like a number one priority. She is truly the best as is Dr Van Voorhees who originally saw my dog before the accident. I could not speak more highly of Dr Leuthold or Dr Van Voorhees - highly highly recommend either one or both :). My puppy has also seen Dr Deluty who was excellent. The level of service from these three vets and the amazing vet techs who supported their service was impeccable. It was worth every single penny and I would trust them to make any decision for my sweet Teddy. I have also seen Dr Tu. She was nice but definitely did not provide the same level of warmth or experience/service as the other doctors that we have seen.

Heart of Chelsea is the best. I’ve had my share of experiences at other vets and I must say they can’t compare to heart of Chelsea. My experience is always so good from the beginning to the end. Everybody is so friendly and very professional! I love them all! I trust them with all my babies!!

I cannot recommend Dr. Tu highly enough. She is not only an exceptional veterinarian, but also a highly skilled behaviorist, and I feel incredibly lucky to work with her in both capacities. When I brought my recent rescue, Lumi, to see her, she took an extraordinary amount of time getting to know Lumi and me, taught me things I genuinely hadn’t learned elsewhere, and offered thoughtful, real-world recommendations that felt practical, compassionate, and effective. She is incredibly responsive, and I received a detailed report right away, which made an immediate difference in how confidently I could move forward. The trust she has built is so strong that I am now bringing my second dog, Gracie—who has been seeing a vet I adore for five years—to Dr. Tu as well. I truly can’t recommend her enough.

- Excellent doctors (recommend Dr. Bassman), excellent techs, excellent front office staff, excellent management. No exceptions, which is rare. - Facility is kept immaculate without feeling sterile. - Very transparent pricing. - Their “Fear Free” handling can really make a difference, especially for older or vulnerable cats that can actually get sicker from stress. - Management and staff have always been responsive to even minor feedback. - Handling of insurance is seamless. Never have to even think about it. After 5+ years of having 3 cats at Heart of Chelsea (2 routine/healthy cats, one who went through an uncommon illness) we couldn’t be happier and have never been disappointed. It’s a 25 minute trip for us, but easily worth it. If you want to keep a healthy pet healthy, or have excellent, expert care for an aging or ill pet, I highly recommend Heart of Chelsea. Thanks Carlos, Rebecca, Dr. Bassman & Adrianna!
