Isthmus Veterinary Care

Dr. Gunby and his team at Isthmus Veterinary Clinic are fantastic! Our cat was recently referred to Dr. Gunby for PU surgery and we are so grateful that he was able to perform the procedure. They fit us in quickly and everyone we worked with was professional, kind and compassionate. Dr. Gunby is clearly passionate about his work and his patients and he and his team helped us through a very stressful procedure and recovery. I was really nervous about caring for our kitty post-op and they very patiently answered all my emails and calls and offered reassurance and assistance. Our cat is doing well and has a new lease on life thanks to Dr. Gunby.

The best vet. I felt my cat was so known, loved, and cared for. Staff very patient with this very anxious cat mom. Prices reasonable. Wonderful follow up care following dental surgery and active support for international travel. Update: Months later I’m still getting top quality care from a distance for my cat. Wish I could give ten stars.

This is a great neighborhood vet office. The staff is always really nice. We have a dedicated vet that we see. They can also usually get us an appointment within a day and sometimes same day. It's smaller than other vet offices we have been to, which is something I really like. Our dog Bert has been going there for about 4 years and is happy and healthy.

Great veterinary service! I love that they do OFA X-rays without anesthesia. Furthermore they do laparoscopic ovary sparing surgery. This veterinary is privately owned. Check them out if you're anywhere near Madison Wisconsin. I drove 4 hours to get there because I love what they offer. Great vet!!

Dr. Gunby, DVM and the entire team at Isthmus are some of the most compassionate and understanding people I have ever had the pleasure of working with! They provided the necessary services at a very affordable rate and gave our little puppy the best care we could’ve asked for 💕 Forever grateful, 10/10 highly recommend Isthmus!

Writing this in the parking lot after our visit because I am so grateful for Dr. Marc Siegel and vet tech Tyler who were so knowledgeable, pinpointed exactly what our pup needed, and jumped right in there to make him feel better. I forgot the name of the team member who took my call but shout out to that person too - I put in an appointment request online and was phoned immediately the next day and was able to snag a spot so quickly. We also felt the cost of the visit and the medications was very affordable! I am so grateful that Isthmus is our vet clinic!

I wouldn’t personally recommend this vet. I kept taking my sick cat here and getting brushed off. I was told I needed to switch his food to a novel protein but wasn’t given any recommendations and most cat food contains chicken of some kind. I was also told to give him a probiotic, but he really wasn’t eating so there was no way to give him the treatment. I didn’t feel like they listened to my concerns at all. They also wouldn’t perform an actual physical examination because he was too aggressive/spicy and they never offered to perform or did perform any tests or blood work (outside of half a full blood panel in April and the same fecal float multiple times). Our appointments never lasted more than 15 minutes. He eventually got sick enough (stopped eating and just symptoms got worse) that I decided to take him to another vet instead. The other vet immediately ran more tests (including the other half of his blood test and more comprehensive fecal testing) and got him on a steroid. They also performed a physical exam on him and sedated him as needed to give him the care he needed. Prior to this they were great, but when we had a problem and really needed them, they weren’t. Definitely disappointed. My husband and I will be taking our 3 pets elsewhere.
