My dog had been bitten in the face by a rattle snake, and his face was so swollen they took him in right away, and they were so good to him and myself. Everyone who worked their was so kind and helpful. Their was no one at any time that walked by us, no matter how busy they got without making us feel like we belonged their. Even after we left, they called every couple of hours just to let us know how he was and if there was any changes or concerns. Our dog loved them. They all ask if we have any question and made sure that we were all on the same page before we left. They are awesome and I recommend them to anyone. 100%, thank you! You saved my dogs life. They even called and checked up on him later.

I changed my feeling about 4Paws, they are way to expensive! $700.+ To have a tooth pulled, and they didn't have the Vet I came all the way there to have do it, do it, some Vet with attitude did it. I still love Dr. Hamel but I need to find a little less expensive place. They are just out for profit and the manager is really rude. They have a new Vet here that we have used for years, Dr. Hamel. We absolutely love her, she is very well educated, stays up to date on new information. They do not offer Any pricing or help for low income or disabled people, which I desperately need, the Humane Society no longer provides veterinarian services, just shots and spey and neutering. I followed Dr. Hamel from their.

4 paws was able to get us in same day right after the holidays without paying for an urgent care fee. The vet and tech were very professional and super knowledgeable! My dog had a UTI and they had a urinalysis done within 20 minutes. So thankful for the staff and flexibility! Prices are reasonable, especially for same day services! The facility is clean and the staff is super friendly. Would definitely recommend.

So far so good. Took my six month old kitten for his pre-neuter exam. Highly knowledgeable techs and liked the Vet too. I'll post later when my kittens had his surgery. Post surgery: My Tabby was neutered on Friday February 3, 2023. Dropped him off at 8:00 A.M. it was a smooth check in. I picked him up at 3:00 P.M instructions given clearly. That same evening my cat was in excellent spirits and was just as though he hadn't left home. Today, five days post surgery, he is doing excellently. Thank you 4Paws. Update. Took my Tabby cat, almost one year old to have his claws trimmed. Thomas at 4 Paws said he did very well and that he was a sweet boy. Lovely. We'll be back.

4 Paws is great! We have a senior doggie that needed his vaccinations and blood work done. His vet made recommendations and explained why, which we really appreciated. The staff is very friendly and professional and their prices are very reasonable. I’m happy our little guy is in good hands and we found a great vet!
