    Comments: Concerned, caring, loving and knowledgeable with bunnies and exotics. He is an HRS guy...always available when needed. Will explain details and cases well. Doesn't shove bunny off on techs...will sit down in front of you in the exam room with bunny cuddled in his arms and make sure bunny is comfortable -- I saw him give Snoozy-Snooze a kiss on top of his forehead during a visit. He has treated Snoozy-Snooze very well.

    Comments by Debra: She is the [best] vet...very helpful...[gives] alot of info...[she] explains [things] very clearly and...is very knowledgeable about rabbits. [She] explains what is wrong and how to solve the problems.
    Comments by Marian: All About Pets doesn't just have good doctors, the entire staff is great. We feel like part of a big family, everybody there seems to know all the animal patients by name and to recognize us when we walk in as the-people-belonging-to-[bunny name]. They are marvelous about gently examining a timid bunny, explaining good-and-bad possibilities so that we know what signs to watch for one way or another, teaching us tricks for administering medicine, having an on-call doctor call us right back when we have an after-hours concern, etc. They (collectively) were also incredibly wonderful with helping us through when our first house rabbit died, from reassuring us that we'd done everything we could have done, reviewing the cremation/burial options and discussing the process of grieving, to advising us on how to prepare our home for the next rabbit (what to throw/what to keep/how to sanitize) and guidance on where to look for another rabbit and what to seek/avoid when looking at rabbits in shelters. [They] offer affordable boarding services (including administering medications).

    Comments: Both doctors are extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and caring. They always offer my rabbit Tawny and I personal attention and follow up. The whole staff is wonderful. Como Park is also a great place to board as they grow their own veggies in a garden behind their building to feed the bunnies.

    Comments: Cedar Pet Clinic does a lot with 'exotics' including rabbits. I have had nothing but terrific experiences with Dr. Un. She is very friendly, and very knowledgeable about rabbits. She has done neuters, spays, ground down teeth, emergency procedures, etc. Cedar tends to be a bit more expensive, but it is well worth it in my opinion. They have a large staff and have always taken the time to explain everything to me.

PMC does a lot with 'exotics' including rabbits. I have had good experiences with Dr Laurel Logas. She is very friendly, and very knowledgeable about rabbits. She has done neuters, spays, ground down teeth, emergency procedures, etc. PMC tends to be a bit more expensive. They have a large staff and have always taken the time to explain everything to me, as well as providing me with a lot of information to take home.
 
I also want to recommend Dr.Laurel Lougas of Pet Medical Center. Winona MN She is way more rabbit saavy than anyone in the La Crosse area although La crosse vet Clinic on Hwy 16 In La Crosse Wi doesmultiple spays and neuters (from our shelter) and are expetemely experienced with that type of surgery.

Dr Lougas is learning and practicing small animal dentistry and also will think "outside the box".
Ihave brought suggestions to her and have always been seriously listened to.

 
This vet is also a wonderful rabbit savvy vet. She has done many spays/nueters, handles or has seen just about any rabbit health issue.
