Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the team’s warmth and compassion, saying pets relax in their care and that staff listen, answer questions and follow up. Many cited strong clinical outcomes and know‑how, from gentle injections and injury care to supportive surgical work, with several calling them the best vet they’ve used. Value came up often too, with comments about fair or even best‑in‑town prices, no upselling and great overall service that people highly recommend and keep returning to.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
Reviews are overwhelmingly positive, with only a few concerns. A couple of owners reported difficulty getting through on the phone or unanswered messages, and one mentioned it can take a few attempts to book. There were isolated complaints about medication decisions or side effects not being clearly explained, plus one frustration over a refused refund for opened medicine and a disappointing paw‑print keepsake after a pet passed. Cleanliness wasn’t specifically discussed in most reviews.

- If you want memorial items like paw prints, discuss expectations beforehand to ensure the finish you’d like.
