Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the team’s kindness, compassion and willingness to go above and beyond, including clear explanations and detailed aftercare instructions. Many cited strong medical outcomes, from swift diagnostics to life‑saving emergency care and effective paralysis tick treatment, as well as thoughtful support during difficult end‑of‑life moments. Numerous reviewers also appreciated prompt after‑hours responses, even on holidays, and described the staff as friendly, helpful and professional.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
Reviews are overwhelmingly positive, with only a few concerns raised. One reviewer felt a brief consult and nail trim were overpriced, and another reported being told to come back despite a suspected paralysis tick, including an inappropriate comment. A separate review mentioned an unempathetic phone interaction regarding a deceased pet, though the attending vet’s support was praised. Facility comments were minimal but generally pleasant; no recurring issues with cleanliness or waits were noted.
