One of the best, if not the best experience I have ever had at a veterinarian. Very professional and caring. Showed genuine interest in the needs of your pet. This will be our veterinarian going forward!

Dr Wrigley and his entire staff were so compassionate and professional when dealing with my daughter's dog Honeycutt in his final moments. It's always an extremely difficult time when dealing with the loss of a pet, and everyone at World of Animals did their best to ease our pain as much as they could. Honeycutt will be missed forever, but we will always appreciate the care you gave him in his final moments.

Incredibly competent and friendly. I had to bring my cat in for several visits in a relatively short amount of time, and by the 2nd or 3rd visit everyone there knew my cat and seemed genuinely happy to see him. When my cat had to get surgery, it gave me immense peace of mind to know with confidence that he was being well taken care of by the amazing staff here. They always take the time to talk through test results with me and ensure I fully understand all the information they're presenting.

Dr Wrigley, Erin and Anna are awesome! We love going to them and so do Peanut and Bing Bong:) Dr Wrigley takes the time to explain and answer any questions we have, and Erin and Anna are so sweet with the doggies. Weve gotten the best care for our 2 fur babies and feel
lucky to have found such a great vet and team. Highly highly recommend

Dr Wrigley and staff (Monica, Claire, and Erin) had welcomed myself for shadowing during the difficult times now during the pandemic. They were wonderful and welcoming to me, explaining how their clinic is structured and operates. Behind the scenes they take such great care for the patients and owners. Dr. Wrigley goes out of his way to find printed out information, and also in the owners natives languages if its not English. He spends longer hours on completing medical records and following up with the progress of his patients. The staff is very friendly and social, watching out for all the details

WOA South Philly is truly amazing! I am a first time dog owner and they look so much time explaining everything to me about what I needed to know. They also took amazing care of my dog. Erin and Anna were SO sweet and made both my dog and I very comfortable and happy. They were fantastic. My dog was in love with everyone there too. They were gentle and very caring with him. Then at the end, they made sure I had everything I needed, including informational packets AND gave him a toy to take home! Will never go to another vet after this one. If youre looking, stop right here and book!
