I can’t speak more highly about Dr. Malek and his staff. Everyone in the office is super nice and helpful. They got my cat in for an appointment so fast and we’re great with her!

The cost was totally reasonable and the Dr himself has been the one keeping in touch with us. Definitely going to stick with lakes!

On October 4th 2023 at 5:54pm I had to do the worst and have my cat who I had for 22 years put down. The vet stayed past their closing time for me to be able to get there with my cat which I’m grateful for, but the reason for my dissatisfaction with the doctor is the fact that he was doing everything in his power to not have to stay late, including asking my mother if they could FaceTime me while I was driving from Madison to Branford while they put my cat down. When I did get there which was fast given where I was traveling from He was very condescending and rude. I was already upset due to the fact that my cat is dying but to add insult to injury when I got there the dr looked at me and said again in a condescending tone “ I’m glad you got here safe, would have hated for an accident to happen delaying this even longer” I’d bet money on it my safety was not of his concern. if my cat wasn’t laying on the table actively dying more so trying not to die because he refused to die with out me next to him I would’ve said something. I was so shocked at the lack of compassion coming from him as he was amazing in 2022 when I had to put my other cat down due to kidney failure. I need to add the vet tech that was there with him was such a peach. I can not remember her name for the life of me but if she sees this thank you for having the compassion he was clearly lacking. If you want a dr who lacks compassion this is the one. Yeah they may be the cheepest around but at what cost? He made me more stressed out in an already stressful situation and my cat was 100% stressed out at the fact that I was stressed out as he was dying. If this is the experience you want to go through along with your animal you’ve got the right place. My guy and I deserved so much better as do you and your pet.

Dr. Malek is THE BEST! I highly recommend this practice. My dog had lost most of her fur due to allergies and Dr. Malek made great suggestions for changing her food. Her hair has almost fully grown back within the last 6 months and she looks healthier than ever!!! Very kind staff as well. We are so happy we made the change to this Vet.

Dr. Malek is great with our pet. She used to be nervous to go to the vet, however she loves to visit! He and all of the vet techs are great with her. They put her at ease and she is calm and comfortable. Prices are reasonable too. We are happy we found Lakes!

You can’t find a better vet, we’ve been to so many. Not only is he very knowledgeable, but the prices are fair the staff is very kind and helpful.

The doctor there is incredible but his office staff namely Gina are rude and completely blind to the struggling economy
