Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the vets’ skill and thorough, no‑nonsense approach that avoids unnecessary tests while achieving great outcomes. Many cited compassionate care and clear explanations, with strong results across emergencies, complex surgeries (including a lengthy diaphragmatic hernia repair), dentistry, and early detection of issues like hip problems. Cats and nervous pets were handled gently, and numerous long‑term clients said they wouldn’t go anywhere else.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
Reviews were overwhelmingly positive. The few concerns mentioned included one report of a frustrating last‑minute prescription request on a Saturday, where the caller felt spoken to dismissively and disputed the advice given about insulin sourcing, and they chose to move elsewhere for scripts. Otherwise, negative feedback was rare and minor.
