Preventive care

first off great location for the north shore. do you think the prices are for the community or for the the new rich folks moving into the island.I was blown away by how high there prices are. not a chance that I can afford to bring my dog there to keep her heathy.

My kitten swallowed something he shouldn't have and was foaming at the mouth and shaking his head and totally freaking out. This wonderful vet took us in the very next day as soon as they could fit us in, which was a huge relief . The staff was so sweet and so gentle, that my kitten was purring the whole time he was there and totally cuddling up to both of them! Turns out he was okay, just needed a couple more days to get over whatever he ate, perhaps a stink bug? My only complaint is that the parking lot is horrible, so perhaps Park next door at the emergency care center, along the mutual border so you're not blocking the care center.. then you'll have to walk down the driveway and up the other one, but at least you'll have a place to get in and out.

I've taken my two male rabbits, my dog and about to be my puppy to be spayed/ neutered. The staff is truly amazing. When my dog gave birth to 14 puppies, I called all the time with questions and they were happy to answer and educate me. You can buy a lot of things over the counter with them too if you need which has always been very convenient for us! Everyone is so caring and I feel at ease dropping my fur kids off with them for appointments 😌
