One told me she had a Thyroid problem, the other said it was allergies, etc. Turns out all it was an infection, and three weeks of antibiotics took care of it. Check them out...

Henry never had a problem giving samples for heartworm testing and other tests at Dr. Porter's office. It was like night and day. I was also able to see them take samples and Henry was never stressed by his visits there. For some reason there was always a problem at Buffalo Ridge. It is a nice building and the decor is nice.

We like Dr. Tim Porter, Animal Care Center in Wildwood. He diagnosed cancer in our cat after the Vet at a high tech office told us it was nothing to worry about. Our cat got sicker and sicker. We finally took her to Dr. Porter who performed surgery, and the cat recovered and was fine. Just be warned, the office is modest, not impressive.

CFrance, Wildwood is close to 466A.
