Preventive care

Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

My 5 year old cat and I unfortunately saw Debbie Krimsley at this clinic. She saw my cat for maybe 40 seconds and was giving me differential diagnosis of both kidney disease and hyperthyroidism. My cat was in for a wellness visit and a rabies shot BTW. She came to these conclusions because he had a 1 lb weight loss in 1 year, and because he threw up a hair ball once. She went as far as to say he may be able to be treated with an herbal supplement...but would need a radioactive iodine treatment to cure him. He would spend a week away from me due to being "radioactive ". Also...he likely had chronic kidney disease as well. I did say he swallowed hard at times, as I was so overwhelmed by what she was telling me. She never looked in his mouth. I began crying after she confirmed his life expectancy would be shorter. She handed me a box of tissues. She went on to tell me he needed labs and proceeded to ask me if I needed price quotes. I should have grabbed my cat and left...but I was traumatized with what she was saying. She packed my cat up with the tech and left. The tech droppped my cat back off to me in the room and I was brought the bill...$700 and change. Of course the next day Krimsley texts me saying my cats blood work and urine sample were all just fine! She scammed me after completely traumatizing me. I went to another vet for the swallowing issue...turns out he has a dental problem. I called The Whole Pet Vet to make a complaint to the business manager Jo. She was as cold as Krimsley stating we have personality differences. REALLY? FYI

I recently took my dog here looking for an alternative/ holistic approach. Dr Wheeler was helpful and caring, and she answered a lot of my questions while providing insights about holistic medicine. Overall a great experience, but I will say is definitely in the expensive side. For consultation alone it was $300 and that’s not counting supplements and medicine which was another $200. This place is great for people looking for holistic medicine, acupuncture and more. Definitely recommend

My "little girl" is very happy and comfortable here and, to date, they've been great with her, too. Caring, professional, and thorough doctors and assistants. Very happy they're our vet!

We have been taking the dogs and cats to WPV for years. They have a wonderful office staff and the vets are the best I have ever had. Dr Wheeler sees the boys, Chip and Cooper, havanese and bichon since they were puppies. Dr Lee deals with the kitties and has been taking care of them for 10 yrs. I can’t say enough about all of the vets in the office. They are all wonderful and do everything possible to keep everyone health. You can’t go wrong if you take your pet to them.

If you want Holistic vets with western degrees this is your place. A few of the vets are even skilled in Herbal and Chinese medicine for animals. They are very caring. My golden was lovingly put down here after 13 years and having cancer. They made it as easy as possible and we're very caring. Recently our French Bulldog broke a claw and they removed it with sedation. They aren't the cheapest but they are incredible at what they do.
