This place doesn't even deserve one star. Had the absolute worse experience here. Would NOT recommend it to anyone! Most UNPROFESSIONAL STAFF! I had an appointment for my dog at 4pm Saturday 8/4/18 for a general check up, which I had gone in person to schedule it Saturday the week before. I Showed up to the appointment at 3:45 for them to tell me that they gave up my appointment to someone else and my dog would not be seen. When asked why they would give up my appointment to someone else they said because they called me to confirm and left me many voice mails and I did not answer. Mind you, that was not true. I showed them my missed called records and voicemail records to show them that I hadn't received anything from them. The guy at the front desk Ronnie (not sure if thats even his really his name) was beyond rude and said that it wasn't his problem because he wasn't the one who was calling to confirm appointments, it was someone else. When trying to find a solution to the problem the staff was extremely rude, Ignored me when trying to see when my dog could be seen next, and didn't even have the audacity to apologize for their mistake. To make the long story short, it basically ended with Ronnie telling us in a really NASTY attitude and tone of voice to Just leave because he wasn't going to make an appointment for my dog to be seen and he didn't care. If they can this irresponsible and careless about an appointment, I could only imagine how they could be with our actual pets.

Everyone was very helpful and friendly to my coco, the doctor was very informative . Early appointments are suggested, because it gets very busy.

They were great, I was so nervous in taking my puppy and they made it super easy to do so. They recommend food and took my dog even when we were a bit late to our appointment.

DON’T TAKE YOUR PET HERE. I’ve been bringing my dog here ever since she was a puppy and I made an appointment for her back in October and I had to wait until November for her to be seen. A few DAYS before the appointment, they called and canceled the appointment saying they don’t have any other appointments coming up soon. I’ve just gone in to make another appointment and they said they rescheduled the appointment in December but we were NEVER told that. The next appointment they had for me was in MARCH. Unbelievable. I’m not waiting another month for her to be seen by a doctor. Such a waste of time.

Had the worse experience there yesterday. I took my dog for her annual check up her appointment was for 10:00am and she was not seen till 5:30pm. It is really unfair to have a dog caged, not feed for all those hours. And then be told by Dr. Bernard that she could not do all of her test because she was being aggressive when my dog is far from aggressive. Luna is a very friendly and loveable dog. I would "NOT" recommend this place to anyone! Very unprofessional doctor.
