My husband took our kitty there, he said they were amazing!! Although we received bad news the Doctor was compassionate. We take our dog there as well! Highly recommend

Very friendly and courteous staff with a very large black feline who seems just as big as my "Chance" due to his regal swagger as he calmly approached my two yr old pitbull. Although Chance had never been nose to nose with a Black cat before, they both have made me proud of them both. The doctor had never seen my young male before and made it possible even though they were doing a couple of surgeries at that time. And we were a surprise dropping in kind of patient which turned out to be allergies. I planned for another visit come early this next month because I couldn't afford all the meds at once. However they were nice to us especially to Chance. Thanks y'all for taking care of my best friend. Who actually got a cheeseburger that day, it was his second birthday... Sincerely Chance Kisor and his Mom

These 5 star reviews shown here are likely written by people they know !!! This so called pet dr Lisa and her staff are a joke. I would not recommend taking your precious animal to this establishment. This lady named Lisa who claims to be a veterinarian does not authorize flea / tick medication through pet meds or any other pet pharmacy like your vet would ordinarily do. I have never heard of such that the vet does not authorize flea / tick meds. You Will purchase the medication from them or you can have your pet running around with fleas and ticks. Take your baby to a real vet to be taken care of. What vet doesn't work with 800 pet meds or Chewy. Only one who is not a real veterinarian. On top of that when we took our dog there last week because of ear problems the so called vet was not there. We ended up with some sort of expensive solution to rinse her ears that we did not need. I called today about the vet authorizing the medication from pet meds and again she is not there. Only people there are some women who try really hard to sell you their products..Take your babies to a real vet clinic. In reading some of these reviews they have turned away some very sick animals. Don't jeopardize your pets health by taking them here for any reason. Could end up being a very sad situation
