Preventive care

We've had such great experience's here. We've been here a couple times now with our dogs and our cat. And every time the staff is so welcoming and warm, they really listen to our concerns with our animals and they take such great care of them. Our cat is very feisty so when they did her exams, the staff handled her so well that she just melted into their arms and almost fell asleep. That really says a lot. She also had to have eye surgery. Everything went smoothly and they explained everything very thoroughly/after care/pricing etc and answered all my questions. Pricing was extremely reasonable and the breakdown was easy to understand. The rooms are extremely clean, organized and welcoming to pets ie cat trees in the cat specific rooms which is a detail we loved. And a little pup cup station for our dogs at the end of their apt! Just little things to cause less stress on the animals. All in all this is our new vet. 10/10 experiences thus far

I can’t thank The InFurmary enough for the care and love they gave my dog after an accidental grooming injury. I had never been there before, but they kindly for us in immediately to exams and treat my senior pup with so much compassion and gentleness. The whole Team at The InFurmary was incredibly friendly, warm, and reassuring during a very stressful moment. They took excellent care of him, cleaned and stitched his wound, and provided the medications needed. They even suggested using a toddler’s long sleeve shirt to replace the Cobe of Shame to keep him comfortable while preventing him from licking his stitches. I am so grateful for their prompt attention, kindness, and expert care. All three of our pups will be going there for all our veterinary care! I highly recommend The InFurmary to anyone looking for a veterinary team that truly goes above and beyond. (Also, there were cat fur babies being treated and cared for as well!)

We came here for a neuter and had such a good experience. They even offered to do it same day. The dr and vet tech were very caring and explained any questions i had. We felt very comfortable and the staff are super kind thank you for taking care of my pup!

Brought my nearly 16 year old shy/nervous cat Willis to this practice because I thought he would do better with a woman veterinarian. The clinic is very nice, clean and bright. Bea, at the front desk and RVT, Lara, were wonderful. Dr. Johnson was very nice as well. My only criticism is that I would have liked a bit more direct interaction with her. I would have especially appreciated a phone call from Dr. Johnson to discuss Willis’ blood and urine test results, rather than an email. I know I can contact the office with any questions, but it just would have been my preference to speak to Dr. Johnson about Willis’ test results. Thank you.

We cannot say enough good things about Dr. Jackie Johnson. After a long and overwhelming stretch of confusing test results, conflicting opinions, and a lot of fear around our dog Lola’s complicated medical situation, reconnecting with Dr. Johnson felt like we could finally breathe again. She is everything you want in a veterinarian: clear, calm, incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and completely thorough. But what really sets her apart is the way she thinks — she sees the whole picture, explains things in a way we can actually understand, and helps us make decisions with confidence instead of panic. We were genuinely lost until we found our way back to her. She brought order to the chaos, stabilized Lola’s treatment plan, and helped us navigate some very stressful days with such kindness and patience. Even while we’re traveling abroad, she continues to guide us and make sure Lola stays safe and cared for. If you’re lucky enough to have Dr. Johnson involved in your pet’s life, hold onto her. She’s not just an exceptional veterinarian — she’s a blessing!
