Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the veterinarians’ compassion, clear explanations, and thorough exams, with many long-time clients returning for decades. Reviewers highlighted successful surgeries (including spays and a life‑saving procedure), attentive follow‑ups and phone updates, and staff who are friendly, professional, and patient. Several noted excellent care for rabbits and comfort with breed‑specific needs like greyhounds/sighthounds.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
Most feedback is very positive, but a few themes recur: some callers reported rude or brusque phone interactions and difficulty being seen when the clinic was fully booked, even for urgent issues. One person noted the clinic closed early before posted hours, and others mentioned policies requiring an exam before medications, causing delays. Prices were described as a bit on the higher side by one reviewer, and there were a couple of isolated negative experiences, including a reported loss of a rabbit and one very poor visit with a different doctor.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- Book ahead—same‑day or emergency spots can be limited when the clinic is fully booked.
- If you need medications (e.g., for a UTI), expect that an in‑clinic exam may be required before prescribing; plan accordingly.
- If picking up food or supplies near closing time, call to confirm staff will be available before you drive over.
- New clients should establish care before an emergency to improve access and callbacks when urgent issues arise.
- When booking for rabbits or sighthounds, mention this so you’re matched with a vet experienced in those species/breeds.
