Preventive care

We love RRVC! Have taken our fur babies to them for over 15 years. The entire staff is super friendly and knowledgeable, and they always seem to go the extra mile. Our animals love the attention and treats they get when we visit. Highly recommend!!

Amanda and Tyler are always helpful in getting Bullet to feel at ease when we are there. Dr Leann is very thorough and checks him over carefully and is great explaining everything she is checking for and tests he needs to have. Kristen at the desk is always welcoming and helpful. Everyone is great! Highly recommend!

After losing our 18-year-old cat over a year ago, we had not felt ready to get another pet. In September, a stray kitten appeared in our back yard, hiding under our garden cart. After making sure the kitten didn't belong to anyone, we called Root River Veterinary Center for some initial advice to help calm the frightened kitten and adopted her. After a few weeks, we took her there for her first appointment. The doctors and staff were very quick but thorough in their evaluation so that Pippa was not too frightened. I have never had anything but great service at Root River Veterinary Center. Update: We recently had another appointment for Pippa. She is now over a year old. This appointment could not have gone better. Because Pippa was a feral kitten and has grown up during the pandemic, she is not used to any people other than us and is extremely shy of strangers. I was very nervous about how she might respond. Root River vet staff were wonderful with her, keeping things quiet, draping something over her head so she would feel safe, moving slowly so she would not be startled, and making the appointment as short as possible. It went extremely well, and I was greatly relieved that she did not seem afraid. I'm very pleased!

My 7 y.o. cat receives excellent care here. The staff is very friendly and gentle with my pet. They are very attentive to get me in and out quickly while also answering all my questions in a respectful way.
