What pet parents are saying
It took me a bit to be able to leave a review after the loss of my loving pup. For 15 years my girl never left my side and in the end it was truly hard for me. I couldn’t even speak. Dr. Gerston understood what I was going through and explained every step in the process. With no words being said on my end she gave me patience and time and never rushed the process. She even brought a treat for girl. Dr. Gersten was absolutely wonderful during this process.
We had no idea that at home euthanasia was an option until hearing from a friend that they did an at home passing for their dog. Once we knew it was time, we searched online and found Codepet and Dr. Diana Gersten, and she was beyond amazing. It is such a better experience to have your little loved one pass at home in their own bed and Dr. Diana was great with us. She gave us so much time to get Holly comfortable and give her some snacks and she was genuinely caring and interested in hearing stories about Holly and what made her so special. She allowed us to take our time and give Holly so much love as we said goodbye and she drifted off to sleep. Dr. Diana also gave us plenty of time to grieve as well. This was absolutely the best choice we could have made to say goodbye to our little girl Holly. Thank you Codapet and Dr. Diana Gersten for being there and making such an awful situation the best it could be.
She was the absolute best. The whole process we were kept informed, she gave myself and my family plenty of time to say goodbye, and treated my Mya with such care afterwards. At first I felt such guilt over putting my dog to sleep, but with Dr. Gersten it was a feeling of immense relief and gratitude when it was all done, because I know she was happy at home and felt no pain through the whole procedure. Thank you again.
She was caring and sympathetic to us all. It was very difficult for us but she explained how she was going to take care of our ailing Socks! Explained the process and made us all feel areas with a very hard decision. Thank you Dr Gersten
Dr. Gersten is a very kind, soft spoken, compassionate person. She made a difficult situation a beautiful one. I was able to hold my baby as he went “Somewhere over the Rainbow “🌈 . She made me feel very comfortable as she did with Pacino. She let me spend as much time before and after the procedure with him. I would highly recommend her. She is a beautiful person. Thank you Dr. Gersten for everything.
Dr. Gersten was great for this sad procedure of having to put down one of our cats. She was patient, compassionate, competent, and made the process as painless as possible.
