I've taken cats in the past and currently my two elderly Yorkshire Terriers to Fort Street Vet. This last visit, my 14 year old Yorkie needed a dental cleaning and the extraction of several teeth due to periodontal disease. Vet visits and procedures here are not cheap, but they do great quality work and are very helpful. They extended the life of my very ill 16 year old cat that I brought in by quickly diagnosing her with hyperthyroidism. They also helped me catch my Yorkie's congestive heart failure very early, and he's doing very well on medication. I currently also have a 19 year old Yorkie whose quality of life has improved greatly with the care they've helped me give him for his arthritis and dietary needs. Overall, I highly recommend them unless you're on an extremely tight budget.

When I was first looking for a vet, I asked around and Dr. Busselman at Fort Street Veterinarian name came up more than any other as the best in town. First of all the front receptionists are so friendly! Brooke is the one I dealt with and I appreciated her humor, professionalism and smile. And it is the only vet clinic I've ever been in that seems really clean, and smells nice, not like the vet. That really helps Trixie not be nervous. I got into an exam room on schedule which is a far cry better than my human docs), and was seen promptly by Dr. Busselman. His playful sense of humor and rapport with me, my pets and kids is great and makes going to the vet a fun adventure for the whole family! He also knows his stuff! I appreciate especially the way he is able to teach me what I need to know in ways I understand regarding my dog's health. He doesn't do medical tests that aren't needed and he usually provides more than one option, not just the most expensive one. He really cares about us and our pet. And he has all the equipment there to do the testing we've needed. When Trixie needed an ultrasound, Dr. England was able to do it and put my mind at ease. And they are amazingly consistent at getting back to me to check in on my dog's progress! The service here is so personal. We love our vet and wholeheartedly recommend Fort Street Vet clinic!

Loved Dr. Busselman!! We took our two cats in for a dental cleaning, and he gave them each a thorough exam while under anesthesia. He found that one of them had a cancerous lump behind her ear - our last vet would have provided the dental cleaning without the exam and we would have never known. He was able to remove the entire lump while she was under, sent it in for testing, and we found that he had gotten all of the cancer at that one time. She was now cancer free, and we are so lucky that it was caught early. Can't say enough great things! He also was good at keeping us calm throughout the entire process as I tend to freak out a little when one of our furry family members might have something wrong with them. It's a horrible experience to go through, but he was wonderful!

Very caring, let our dog wander off leash once he was out of the waiting areas. No Vet has EVER done that, especially since our dog is huge. Saw both Dr. Busselman and Dr England (mostly Busselman)but we found both were equally caring, knowledgeable, patient, generous with their time, open to our research we had done, open to how much history we had carried in, open to how hesitant we were to surgery at our dog's age. They spoke directly to our dog as if he was their own pet.Also, vet tech's who administered vaccinations, every single one of them smiled and laughed with our dog as if they were just delighted to see him. It was as if they all just loved their jobs, no matter how many patients were in the waiting room, they let our dog lumber in, freely, off leash, once out of the waiting room. This off-leashing attitude, which they would say "we're used to having dogs around", relaxed our dog, and made it fun for him. There was also a cat or two roaming the waiting room which entertained almost everyone and made almost every smile, even the people who initial walked in looking pretty scared about their cat or dog's condition. Even after we moved recently, front desk staff was so great about getting records to us, and right away. In September Staff faxed records after job took us out of the the Omaha area and we needed Rabies certificate, but because they knew we would need our dog's full records, they were kind enough to fax everything they had which has been absolutely wonderful.I believe we were with them approx 3 years. We had changed because we were it looked like our dog might be needing surgery for a benign lipoma which had become quite large and we wanted a second opinion so we sought referrals from the place where we boarded our dog and Dr. Busselman and Dr. England's names came up immediately. We highly recommend these caring Vets, both who are dog owners themselves, and both who are openly affectionate with their canine patients - and undoubtedly the feline ones too from the fact that at least one cat has the run of the place. It is a friendly, caring practice with which actually takes time to listen. The only "DON'T" I would advise, is probably don't leave voice messages is you are in a hurry to hear back. Go ahead and keep trying to get back to the staff directly because they stay busy there all the people in the waiting room lining up in front of them vying for their attention, so while they might have picked up your message, they might just not be able to get back to you yet. When you call back into you, they will remember that you have called in earlier, but have not been able get back to you yet. But the next time you catch them in the moment, our experience is they will take care of you then and there. We can't say enough wonderful things about how they have come through for us. Refills Rx too I believe. Look no further, THIS IS THE SPOT for your dog or cat!

Dr. Busselman cares for our cats and our dog. Two of our pets are getting up in years and the third, our recently adopted outdoor cat, has an illness. Dr. Busselman has been extremely good about explaining treatment programs and options to us and I'm very impressed with his followup. He always calls to check on how our pets are doing after we've either in to see him. He is extremely patient and I never feel as if he's trying to hussle us out the door. He's also very reasonably priced compared to others in Omaha. On this last visit, he did a basic senior exam on our dog with bloodwork, urine analysis, etc.

Dr. Jerry Busselman has been the only veterinarian for a long time, but within the last year added a partner, Dr. England. Both Doctors are wonderful, caring, gentle, and informative! They really take time with us and our pets. Can't say enough good things about them!!
