Owner Review Summary

Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say

👍What Pet Owners Praised

Owners consistently praised the compassionate, friendly team and the way appointments are unhurried, thorough, and clearly explained. Many cited strong medical outcomes, especially with chiropractic care for older dogs and degenerative disc disease, and appreciated the clinic’s willingness to explore holistic or alternative options. Long‑time clients expressed deep trust and loyalty, and several highlighted helpful touches like quick prescription refills and solid COVID protocols.

💬Common Feedback & Suggestions

While reviews are overwhelmingly positive, two very recent accounts reported serious concerns about diagnostic accuracy and surgical decision‑making (including a neuter being declined and an euthanasia suggestion, later contradicted by another vet). Perceptions of cost were mixed, with one reviewer noting higher fees than elsewhere and another saying they weren’t overcharged. One person mentioned the location was a bit out of the way. Few comments addressed cleanliness or wait times, though the limited mentions were favourable.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners

  • If you’re interested in chiropractic or holistic options, ask—many reviewers saw strong benefits from these services.
  • Request an estimate beforehand if you’re cost‑sensitive, as views on pricing varied.
  • Plan extra travel time if you’re coming from farther away, as one reviewer noted the location was out of their way.
  • Call ahead for medication refills; reviewers reported quick turnaround.
  • If you’re uncertain about a diagnosis or surgical risk assessment (e.g., neuter eligibility), consider seeking a second opinion.
