I have been using the Cat Vet of South Street for over 25 years. They have always been so helpful, patient and supportive. They were incredibly compassionate and patient with us when we had to put our 14 year old cat to sleep last year. I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. McKinstry and her staff!
The ONLY place to take your cat – After a horrific experience at Fairmount Animal Hospital, I found Dr. McKinstry. She is amazing! The place itself is a bit odd--a home turned into a vet shop, and not even remotely medical looking at all. The staff is all really friendly and actually love cats. Unlike most vets, they actually know how to handle cats (to prevent things like getting clawed). First of all, she will not try to sell you junk you don't need. She wants to know what your cat's problem is and how she can help. My cat... read more
Amazing & Caring – Called in and they made an appointment for me right away. After they saw that my cat was ill, she went over the procedure and explained everything in full detail. They went to work right away and returned a happy (drugged) cat to me. She explained everything again on his care for the next weeks and gave me her number to call in case of any other emergencies. She even took the cat home with her to watch over night. Amazing.
Very friendly, affordable cat vet! – I had to make an appointment for my sick kitty last minute and I was in the office 45 minutes later! I had less than a 10 minute wait when I got there! Dr. McKinstry was so kind, handled my cat very well (he didn't even freak out at all like he has with other doctor's, he was calm the whole time!), she gave me advice on the types of food he should be taking and even helped teach me how to clip his nails correctly. She answered all of my questions and I did not feel rushed at all. Everyone... read more
BEST CAT VET EVER – Dr. McKinstry is a fantastic, gracious, expert cat vet that I have been using for over 14 years now. Dr. McKinstry is a true animal lover, and a superb vet. She has diagnosed issues w/ all of my pets so early, that she has saved their lives. Dr. McKinstry went to the University of Pennsylvania vet school - which is top notch, and she stays up to date w/ the cutting edge research in her field. Dr. McKinstry takes the time to explain all options and all treatment plans, and I have never been rushed at any o... read more
rushed and insensitive – I told Dr. McKinstry I had a lot of questions as a new cat owner, and she never took the time to ask me what my questions were. My cat lashed out and she decided to tranquilize him - I'm not too impressed with a vet who can't cut my cat's toenails without tranquilizing him! While he was asleep, she suggested doing a few tests, just in case I needed the information for the future. She did not explain to me how much more this would cost me, and there was no immediate need for the tests. Then she recomm... read more
Great – I called half an hour before they were closing and they took my cat right away. Very friendly and helpful
great vet, if you can get an appointment – Dr. McKinstry provided excellent care for my cats. I appreciate how she answered my dozens of questions, explained the treatment options, and showed me how to administer medication to a very uncooperative kitten. She and the staff are all warm, kind people who genuinely care about cats. Unfortunately I think she's overwhelmed with patients. I would call again and again during office hours-- the phone line was almost always busy. When one of my cats had an emergency problem over the ... read more
