I have been to dozens of veterinarians over the last 22 years for care of my three dogs. Today, I had the opportunity to have my dog seen by the one of the best veterinarians that I have ever encountered. Dr. Steffen Sum is by far among the most knowledgeable, most caring, veterinarian that I ever had the honor of treating my dog. He specializes in small animal internal medicine. His credentials are exceptional. He spent quality time determining my dog's medical condition; recommended treatment: and scheduled follow-up appointments. In addition to Dr. Sum, if your pet needs the finest specialty dental or orthopedic service available, you would be well-advised to see Dr. Judith Yee (Board-certified veterinary dentistry) & Dr. Doug Huber (Board-certified veterinary orthopedics and surgery). I love Desert Veterinary Specialty and their entire team of technicians and the one-and-only, Kathy -- the best office manager/receptionist around.

Absolutely amazing vet. Referred here for surgery from our regular vet and honestly wish they were closer because the staff is so attentive and lovely. Dr. Huber, Katie, Haley, and the whole team are absolute rock stars.

Brought in my 8 y/o terrier mix with a broken tooth. From beginning to end, both my dog's and my experiences were wonderful. Everyone was very nice, caring, and sincere. Dental procedure went smoothly and she recovered very fast! Dr Yee spent a good a mount of time with me on the phone before and after the procedure. She explained everything and was very detailed and informative. She even checked in on Emily in the evening! Amazing place, kind people.

Dr. Yee specializes in dental and oral surgery. My dog was bleeding from his mouth, and Dr. Yee did surgery and fixed the problems. Dr. Yee and the staff were wonderful to work with! They genuinely cared about my dog, who is around 14-15 years old. He was in surgery for 6 hours, and came home with me at midnight that night. Even after that marathon day, Dr. Yee and the vet tech were pleasant and informative, even cheerful! They also have the best follow up care I've experienced, with phone calls daily and then less frequently to ask how my dog was doing post-op. If one of my animals ever needed such treatment again, I would not hesitate to return to Dr. Yee. A word about cost: Yes, this was expensive. But that is the way of all medical care in these times. My dog's issues were complex and very serious...this was not a simple stitch job. If your pet is a member of your family and your BFF, then it's worth the $$$ for Dr. Yee's expertise.
