Preventive care

I've been going there for 10 years, so that right there indicates I'm pleased with them. The staff has always been pleasant and friendly. The vets always take the time to go over the visit and fill me in on what is going on with my Golden.

Unbelievable. Took my cat for his first visit 3 weeks ago updated my information then came back in today for surgery at 7:30 this morning for the lady at the desk tell me we called you yesterday to inform you your cat needs to be fasting. Then when I asked what’s the number they had it was the wrong one! Like how even though when I went the last time you called the right number! Then she said you have to reschedule! I just woke up extra early , took the day off of work for you to do all that. Very unorganized! My correct phone number was even on my paperwork from my first visit ! Done with this place !

I cannot express enough of my disappointment with scheduling a visit here. I'm not in any way directing at two of the very tolerant and loving staff here. I wish the two of them worked elsewhere. The service was a disaster from drop off staff obsolete to the call from the Dr. After dropping off my 3 dogs for ear infections and rabies vaccines and nails.. they couldn't do one of my dogs nails (vet. Really) Dr. Tells me one thing staff another related to charges. Charges for every little thing separate that should have been included in their office visit. They also said they would apply the 1st visit coupon to one only and in the end Did not. When I called just after I got home to review my booklet of a receipt they said well" you should have presented it at check out and since you did not it's too late". They were not transparent and gouging consumers $840.00 for ear infections and rabies two dogs nails they said they won't do an antibiotic on my dogs because ihe shot was $169.00 . B.S. . No wonder so many pets can't get the care they need and many of us who love them have to choose our mortgage payment or their care. I will never recommend them and don't feel their treatment was adequate, for the money spent. They should be put out of business.
