I am forever grateful to Dr. Matson for her ability to confidently provide the emergency intervention necessary to save my dog's life. She accurately diagnosed my dog as having Pyometra (an infected uterus) and was able to perform the emergency ovariohysterectomy first thing the following morning. I had intense reservations about intubation of my tracheomalacia-prone 8-lb elderly Shih Tzu, but Dr. Matson's care and knowledge proved to be more than sufficient to deal with my pet's nuances. Dr. Matson was even able to simultaneously remove to mammary masses via a small separate incision during the ovariohysterectomy procedure. Her incision scars are barely visible and were closed beautifully - you would think this work was done by a plastic surgeon it looked and healed so wonderfully. I have been blown away by how beautifully my dog has has recovered and I know it is attributable to Dr. Matson's expertise on the operating table. She is professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to her profession and achieving the best outcome for her patients. Thank you endlessly, Dr. Matson, from the both of us and from Baby Bear.
