Owner Review Summary

Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say

👍What Pet Owners Praised

Reviewers consistently praised the friendly, compassionate team and how welcoming they are to both pets and owners. Many cited knowledgeable vets who provided clear advice and successful care, including emergency help, surgeries, dental work, and even saving a dog’s life. Owners of nervous pets appreciated the gentle, patient handling, and several out‑of‑town travellers were grateful to be accommodated on short notice with minimal wait times.

💬Common Feedback & Suggestions

Most feedback is highly positive, with a few recurring concerns. Some owners felt prices were high or even overpriced, and one serious complaint alleged a harmful medication dosing. A couple of access/communication issues came up, including a refusal to see a cat due to prior vet history, a reported hang‑up on the phone, and holiday hours not being posted. One reviewer advised looking elsewhere for rabbit care due to limited expertise with that species.
