This is the first vet clinic I've been to in St Cloud that actually seems to care about your pet as much as you do. The head veterinarian helped me a lot with questions, and when I had to say goodbye to my almost 19 yr old cat. It's a nice small clinic as well, so it feels more personal and less like a hospital environment.

If I could give 0 stars, I would. My grandmother brought her dog here after it was attacked by a much larger, neighbors dog. The dog was rushed to the animal hospital, upon which the Dr was informed that my grammas dog is a nipper. While picking up the dog to try to inspect wounds, unfortunately the doctor was bitten in the face by the small dog. While extremely unfortunate, I would think that something like a nippy, INJURED animal is not something completely out of the ordinary for a veterinary hospital fo sometimes deal with. The doctors response was to look at the dog with the most hateful expression on his face, and two handed chuck the dog at the wall of the exam room. While the doctor admitted to being out of line and not having a good grasp on his emotions at the time, this is COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY AND UNACCEPTABLE. You would think someone who has a career as a vet would be more empathetic and understanding of why an injured, small dog would lash out. 0/10 FIND A VET WHO ACTUALLY CARES ABOUT ANIMALS

I brought my cat in on July 18th for a neuter and front declaw. He was never neutered at this visit. I was not charged for it and unfortunately didn't notice until a month later when I was emailing my landlord proof of neutering and it was not on the receipt and upon examination of my cat he was still intact. I immediately called them, and they rectified the situation by allowing me to bring him in for the neuter FREE OF CHARGE.

I don't understand how this vet clinic has so many good reviews because the vet refused to listen to me when I said multiple times "I just got my cat from the humane society, he was a stray and I don't know anything about him." He continued to tell me how bad of a cat parent I was, including talking about my other cat that I mentioned that he had never met. I refuse to go back to this vet, I will be going to another one.

Glenn is a wonderful vet. Came to my apartment for a house call on a Sunday for euthanasia and was very patient and kind. Took care of my sweet sweet cat very gently and it made the devastatingly sad process as easy as it could have been. 10/10
