When my parents' dog Kya died very suddenly a few years ago, their regular vet was not at work that day. But thankfully Dr. Tullio was and treated my parents and their dog as if he was their doctor for the past 15 years doing everything he could to try and revive Kya and by being so compassionate to my parents in the waiting room after having to deliver the sad news. We truly can't say enough nice things about Dr. Tullio and can't wait for him to open his new facility! Thank you.

Doctor Tullio is a kind, caring gentleman who has cared for my cocker spaniels for many years now. He has always been helpful, honest, and understanding with my pets and me. He is a man I trust completely and have and do refer others to him. Any pet owner can feel safe and secure in trusting their beloved pets to his skilled hands.

We have been so completely impressed with Dr. Tullio's consistent excellence in care and services that we wanted to share our experience with others. We are pleased to recommend as the place to go for both quality treatment and compassionate care for your furry family members.

Molly and Oscar have been patients of Dr. Tullio for several years. I have been very pleased with his care, his expertise and his understanding with my two Wheatens. Dr. Tullio has been quick to diagnose any issues and remedy all of the problems we've had. I look forward to many more years working with Dr. Tullio. I wish him well in his venture.
