Dr Monaco is one of the most honorable veterinarians there is, she has been my pets vet for 6 years or so. When one of my shepherds was having issues with her hips we discussed acupuncture and spent a lot of time together and not only did my dog Leia love her, we got to really know her and see the passion she has for animals. She will recommend as she sees fit while being extremely honest and comforting. I can speak from experience since at one point I had four shepherds and we dealt with hip issues, nose cancer to just normal check ups and all the dogs adore her. She really treats them like they are her own pets. Dr. Monaco went above and beyond during a time of need for us and came...⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Dr. Monaco went above and beyond during a time of need for us and came into the office for an emergency visit with one of our pups that needed to be put down due to his nose cancer. I highly recommend Dr. Erica Monaco for your all animal needs, she will definitely go above and beyond for you.

Dr. Monaco has been a blessing to our family! Although our first meeting was not as we preferred to have it due to our puppy having seizures, Dr. Monaco helped us through that heartbreaking experience with grace, knowledge and honesty. Our baby now recently suffered a freak accident which left his back legs paralyzed and required spinal surgery. Dr. Monaco faced timed us while out of the country to help assess what was going on and pushed to get him into surgery right away. Afterwards she took great care of him and helped us with physical therapy techniques while he was healing at home. He is now able to walk again and enjoy a fulfilled life. We trust and value Dr. Monaco beyond...⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Let me start off with Dr. Monaco is amazing! We’re very fortunate to have met her when our dog was sick. During our visit, we learned she also performs acupuncture. Our dog has hip dysplasia and cluster seizures, the acupuncture has given him his mobility back, reduced seizure activity, and made him happy again. We’re so pleased we found such a knowledgeable, caring vet!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Twice our frenchies had issues we thought only the emergency room could handle. Dr. Ireifej was very comforting and did not upsell us on a bunch of things we would not need. We have spent thousands in the past with our past vet office, and we now will always call Dr. Ireifej first. Our boys are healthy and doing great⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Dr. Erica Monaco is one of the most compassionate, kind, and caring humans I have had the pleasure of working with. She puts her heart and soul into what she does, and is extremely dedicated to her patients. She has cried with us over losing an animal, answered emails and questions on her time off, and always made mine and my family’s pets a priority. I have a dog with a chronic condition, that she correctly diagnosed and treated after 4 other vets failed. Any time he has a flare up (which she’s all but eliminated at this point) she makes sure he’s seen in a timely manner. She has never tried to pressure me into a treatment plan,...⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

She is always amazing at explaining what she sees, what it could mean, and what that means going forward. She has helped me go through the pros and cons of treatment options to ensure I make the best decision for my pets. Even when I had an emergency after hours that I had to take else where, when I contacted her she had no issues going over what probably happened and reassuring me that I made all the right decisions. I will always trust and follow Dr. Monaco, because she is in it for the love of these animals.

I have had dogs my whole life. Of all the vets I have known, Dr. Monaco is by far the best. She is caring, thorough and extremely knowledgeable. She takes her time every single visit. She explains her thought process for the treatment plan and follows up on treatment provided. It is obvious that she genuinely wants what is best for my dogs. As any pet owner knows, you want to be able to have trust in your vet to do what is best for your fur babies. My dogs are older now, and I can't imagine going to any other vet. My family and I are so thankful to have Dr. Monaco!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

So thankful to Dr. Ireifej for the after hours consult to discuss options after Buck, our 11 week old lab, got into the trash. Recommended by the ER vet nearly an hour away, Dr. Ireifej was able to see my puppy over video and offer immediate guidance. The call was easy to set up and connect and the follow up notes were great (and sent right away after the call). Buck is fine and back to being a normal puppy .⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
