When we adopted our dog, he became very sick. The team at Animal Hospital of Richboro quickly moved up his appointment so we could come in immediately. The staff and Dr. Linn have always been so accommodating and helpful. We've been so happy with our care here and will continue to be patients!

Dr. Linn is the most caring pet doctor I've ever known. He truly loves what he does and it shows. Just ask Prancer and Sophie, they love him!! He is also very compassionate and understanding to pet parents providing reassurances and never provides unnecessary costly services. He keeps the whole family in check. The office staff is great too! Very accommodating, friendly and responsive. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED :-)
