My beautiful beloved cat Sam lost his life in a dental procedure here a few days ago on 12/5/2022. He was 10 years old. I should never have allowed it and will pay the price of dealing with this place for the rest of my life. It cost me my world. It turned out he had some underlying issues in his lungs that would have been identified by a preop x-ray. I was told by the vet who treated Sam that she offered an x-ray to my husband and son who were there with him who were told it was optional, so he declined unless they thought was absolutely necessary. That was a tragic mistake, but I told the vet that in an older cat who was having symptoms, why wouldn't this be mandatory to make sure as much as possible he was safe for that surgery. My precious, precious baby could have been here right now as the vet said they did this x-ray after he went into respiratory distress and passed, which according to the vet revealed underlying problems in his lungs, which she admitted would have prevented the surgery from moving forward that day if an x-ray had been done. I feel this was a tragic mistake on their part. My beloved cat was 10 years old and the highest level of precaution for his fitness for this procedure should have been undertaken in my opinion. Though she thought Sam had serious underlying concerns in his lungs identified by the x-ray after the procedure, I told her we could have had the chance to find out what was going on and what could have been done to treat. I was also away while this was procedure was done and will never get the chance to see my beloved cat Sam again. He was my only remaining fur baby after losing our beloved 15 year old dog Luna at the end of July and my beloved 14 year old cat Sookie in March, both devastating losses. Now, we've lost everything. I told the vet please spare anyone else this unbearable heartache by re-looking at their precautions for doing risky surgical procedures especially on older or vulnerable animals. My Sam would be here right now if the highest level of precautions had been undertaken. As said, we we are devastated and will pay for this tragedy for the rest of our lives. I will never forgive myself for allowing this procedure to take place and especially here. Make sure you do a lot of research and screening before ever allowing your pets to undergo risks like my precious baby did.

Place literally doesn’t care for your animals. Brought my dog here to get his nails cut and annul glands squeezed, dog came home with an infection in his butt & this place won’t allow him back because they thought I was a threat for asking for his medical records to switch vets. He’s been having muscle spasms, timid, Won’t eat, won’t sleep, won’t leave my side constantly crying since he’s left this place. They made us sedate my dog cause they can’t “ control “ him. And hasn’t been the same since. 5 days later. Complete change In my poor dog. & they won’t help. Sad story.

Great people , truly caring and always helpful. Only used them for a little over three years since I moved to this area , but from Day one to the last day we had to put our Senior Dog Down . They where nothing short of exceptional. Over the years They helped our dog with a variety of problems that senior dogs face , and put her on a great diet that definitely helped her lifespan. Even when they didn’t fell comfortable doing a procedure. They recommended us to an animal surgeon that removed her cancer from one digit on her paw and pro longed her Life probably the extra 2 years . (That doctor was/is also amazing )Even in the hardest part of of putting her Down . They made it as comfortable as possible for us and more importantly Our Girl Jingle . Thank you everyone , we’re Forever grateful - The Murphy's
