I am a long time client of Dr Epstein, have moved to several other areas of the country over the last 10 years, experienced numerous other veterinarians and practices, and I would rate Dr Epstein at the top of the list, hands down. He takes a sincere interest in his patients and their humans, understands the issues that we «pet parents» are facing and works to ensure we can make informed decisions. He does not push unnecessary tests and charges fairly for his services. Even though I am not currently in Gaston County, I have on occasion called Dr Epstein for a consult and he is always willing to help me with whatever ailment decision I’m facing for my «kids». He makes sure I’m asking the right questions of our current vet and always educates me on the situation so I can be more informed and make the best decision.
