Preventive care

Great experience. Took my two 5 month old cats in to be spayed. They have the process streamlined to perfection. Which gives me confidence that the operating room is also ran well. Nice to be able to access affordable sprays and neuters. I also appreciated all the email communication and reminders. Their incisions also look good.

It is SO HARD to get ahold of them if you have questions. When I made the appointment, I got an email saying that the deposit had been charged and I would get an email for the appointment confirmation. Four days later and no email confirmation. Tried calling multiple times and no answer. Couldn’t even leave a voicemail because the inbox was full. Fast forward to after finally getting an email confirmation and having the appointment. Overall procedure itself went smooth, but the morning after I walked my dog outside to go to the bathroom. After coming inside on the leash and walking to the bedroom to rest he scooted himself on the carpet for a split second. I looked at the incision site and it was bleeding a little bit. The post op instructions say to call or email pictures if there are any questions after. I have called multiple times without an answer, left a voicemail, and emailed them. All I’m looking for is a response, but you cannot get ahold of anyone there. The procedure itself was smooth but the communication before and after the procedure has been horrible.

Would not recommend. These people absolutely wasted the dog swizzle out of my time this week. Took a dog to be fixed about a month ago, while there I asked some questions about why online it says they don't do pups over a 100lbs. The younger blonde/red haired lady told me that they just don't do a group over a 100lbs anymore. But if my dog was over a 100lbs, to go ahead and just schedule the apt stating the dog was 100lbs and they would do it anyway. Fast forward to this am, I showed up, filled out the papers, waited till my number was hung in the window. They hung our number and I took "hank" the door, the same gal who had said they would do his procedure being over 100lbs says, if he's over 100lbs we won't be able to do it. I reminded her that she is the one who told me they would. She says we're gonna weigh him to see, about 30 seconds goes by and she says oh he's only 97lbs we can do him. I said awesome, I have a muzzle in the pickup, he get scared do you want me to leave it? She said no. I hopped in my pickup and left. After about an hour goes by I got a call saying the dog is scared and is acting like he will bite someone. Dude the dog is scared and he's doing so so you'll leave him alone. Hence why the owner offered to leave a muzzle, yall aresupposed to be PROFESIONALS, they wanted him picked up immediately and won't provide the service that we already paid 50% upfront to reserve the spot. What a joke. There is no way this is the first big scared baby yall have encountered. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME.

I'm giving this place two stars because immediately after my dog's appointment he got an infection. They told us he just needed to sit still, but in the end we had to take him to an emergency vet because he began bleeding.
