Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the team’s compassion and clear communication, especially during difficult end‑of‑life moments. Many highlighted knowledgeable vets who take time to explain options and provide thorough care, including for exotic species like reptiles, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats and turtles. Several noted successful surgeries and dental work, supportive handling of anxious pets, and long‑term trust over many years. People also mentioned quick, short‑notice appointments and easy parking.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
While the tone is strongly positive overall, a few themes emerged. Some reviewers objected to upfront or unexpected charges (e.g., a repeat‑fee for injections or a consult fee taken before being seen) and felt pricing transparency could be clearer. A small number of rabbit owners felt euthanasia was suggested too quickly or that there was no time for diagnostics like X‑rays, and there were isolated reports of rudeness or difficulty reaching the clinic by phone. One reviewer mentioned a lack of scales at a visit, suggesting occasional equipment limitations.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- Ask for a cost rundown up front, including any consult or repeat‑treatment fees and whether payment is taken before the visit.
- If you have an exotic pet (reptile, rabbit, guinea pig or rat), mention this when booking so you’re scheduled with an exotics‑savvy vet.
- For urgent cases or imaging (e.g., X‑rays), call ahead to confirm they can accommodate you—same‑day or short‑notice slots are sometimes available.
- Parking is straightforward; arrive a few minutes early to settle in and complete any paperwork.
- If the phone is busy, try calling at different times of day or visit in person to arrange an appointment.
