Rochester Veterinary Eye Care

Our 4 year old Golden Retriever Winston Woke up with a droopy eye with his 3rd Eyelid appearing one day and after weeks of steroids and antibiotics our Regular Vet couldn't come up with a reason or a cure so they referred us to RVEC. We were unsure how our Appointment with RVEC would go but were pleasantly surprised on how welcomed we felt and thorough Winston's exam went. Dr. VerHulst and her 2 assistants were very gentle and loving to Winston while covering every area to make a diagnosis. She explained clearly all our options for the Horners Syndrome diagnosis. We can now rest easy having put a name to this mystery and would highly recommend RVEC for any eye issues. To be honest I was a little worried on what the cost would be since I do not have pet insurance and this was a specialist. I left very happy and believe I would have paid much more if I had all the same tests done at my regular vet. Thank you RVEC, Winston is very Happy

Rochester Veterinarian Eye Care gave my Sophie the best eye exam ever! They explained everything, gave us a treatment plan and they were incredibly thorough. Professional and friendly! Eye care is their specialty! Highly recommend!

We drove an hour & a half away from home to come here and it was the best decision!!! Everyone is so friendly and they took the best care of my dog and throughly went through everything with us so we understood everything!!! I highly recommend this place!!!

I could not rate my experience high enough with Dr VerHulst and her staff! They took such great care of our Cairn Terrier Sophie. When our vet recognized Sophie's eye condition was getting worse from poking it with a bush, she recommended RVEC and thankfully they squeezed her in the next. I was impressed with how they swiftly got Sophie's ulcerated cornea under control which an aggressive plan of eye drops and medications doing everything we could to avoid surgery yet keep Sophie's condition managed safely. After a couple of weeks of visits, meds, and the dreaded cone Sophie's eye healed beautifully, no surgery required. Thank you Dr V!

Excellent, compassionate quality of care!

Kind, caring and VERY knowledgeable!

I would highly recommend Rochester Veterinary Eye Care and Dr. Verhulst again and again! We ended up in their hands feeling hopeless after my dog's eye had ruptured from an unnecessary mistake/complication from our regular vet. She was in so much pain and we were so afraid that she was going to lose her eye. Dr. Verhulst and her team went above and beyond to care for our girl and save her eye. Her communication was excellent and she really did take care of our pup as if she was her own. We are eternally grateful for her talent and compassion during such a scary and difficult time. I am so thankful that we ended up in her care and they our pup's eye has made a full recovery after a graft patching up her eye. Above and beyond, 10/10 experience!

Dr. V saved my dogs eye. My bug eyed Shih Tzu/Pekingese hit her eye on the corner of the door when running in. I then found out we had a new vet eye doctor in Rochester. Previously, only in Buffalo. I got an immediate emergency appointment. It was very scary. He had an ulcerated eye and I was afraid he would loose it. Dr. V and her staff were WONDERFUL. He was treated with 3 different eye drops 6 times a day for 2 weeks, and wore a collar. I made a few more visits over a month to check any improvement as the drops were slowely reduced. I can't tell you enough how grateful I am. He has healed and now on only daily drops for dry eye. Dr. V and her staff are skilled and compassionate. I got very thorough written reports after each visit, and without asking, they sent all notes to my vet. I highly recommend this practice!
