Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners frequently praise the vet’s kindness, compassion, and gentle handling of both pets and people, often saying visits put them at ease. Many highlight successful outcomes such as life‑saving help, smooth surgeries and neuters, solid aftercare, and making nervous dogs comfortable. Several also appreciate that costs are discussed before proceeding and describe the pricing as fair.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
A minority of reviewers report communication and access issues, including missed or delayed call‑backs, limited availability on holidays/after‑hours, and being unable to get help in urgent moments. Some experienced price surprises compared with initial quotes or felt charges were high, and one account alleges a misdiagnosis with costly testing. There are isolated comments about unempathetic bedside manner during euthanasia and a strict policy of requiring an exam before selling flea products. Overall sentiment is strongly positive, but these points appear in enough reviews to note.
