Review by Dr. Diana Gersten

Dr. Diana Gersten was absolutely wonderful. She was very responsive through text message, and helped me make the tough decision of putting my sweet kitty boy to rest. Her presence was very calming and she explained everything as she did it. She gave us as much time as we needed to love and kiss on him before she took him. She delivered his body to Monarch Pet Memorial Services where they did an absolutely beautiful job memorializing my baby. Thank you Dr. Gersten for making an awful situation bearable, and for your kindness, compassion, and patience with me.

Dr. Gersten was so kind, caring and professional as our 19 year old beloved cat was suffering from liver disease was put to rest. She fully explained the entire procedure to us and answered all of our questions. It was such a relief that Dr. Gersten is a come to your home Vet which allowed for a very quiet and peaceful passing of our beloved cat. My wife and I fully recommend Dr. Gersten and Codapet. Thanks so much Dr. Gersten for your caring and multiple follow ups checking on us.

Review by Dr. Diana Gersten

Our little dog Gucci, 15 years old, went to heaven this morning, at our house, in Pompano Beach. He left us like an angel, without pain, surrounds by his family with all our love. We couldn’t have hoped a better way to leave us. It was calm and painless and filled with love. We will still have to heal ourselves. We will love you forever Gucci. Notre petit chien Gucci est parti au ciel, ce matin, dans sa maison de Pompano Beach, entouré d’une partie de sa famille. Il était âgé de 15 ans et était rendu au bout de son chemin. Nous n’aurions pu espérer mieux pour son départ. Grâce à la de Gersten, notre Gucci est parti sans stress, et sans douleur, entouré de tout notre amour. Il nous restera à nous guérir de son absence. Nous t’aimerons pour toujours Gucci. Merci dr Gersten.
