How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Best Vet

Preventive care

Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

Experienced vets and a very friendly staff. They even help me with sharing my dogs records though email whenever I call them for those records immediately. They have availability in very regular intervals for an appointment though they a decent crowd. Very organized and professional. Love this place.

Best Vet was a disappointing experience. The pricing felt extremely high for routine care, with little explanation or transparency about what justified the cost. It came across as more focused on upselling than on the actual needs of the animal. On top of that, the staff was unfriendly and dismissive. Asking basic questions felt inconvenient to them, which is not what you want when you’re trusting someone with your pet’s health. Veterinary care is already stressful and expensive. A clinic should at least be compassionate and respectful. Unfortunately, this place was neither, and I won’t be returning.

⭐ 1/5 - Complete Waste of Time - Go Elsewhere I made an appointment specifically to get flight documentation for my pet, scheduled for 1:00 PM. I arrived 15 minutes early to be respectful of their time, but they clearly didn't return the favor. After checking in early, I didn't get placed in an exam room until 1:10 PM. Then I waited. And waited. Nearly an HOUR later, I'm still sitting there while I can hear the vet in the next room casually chatting and flirting with another client and their dog. Meanwhile, I'm just supposed to sit there like a fool waiting for a simple flight form? I finally gave up, left, and called another vet clinic. They got me in right away, and I walked out with my completed form in under 15 minutes. The new place was also cleaner, newer, and clearly better organized. Bottom line: If you value your time, do NOT go here. This is unacceptable for a scheduled appointment. A simple flight health certificate shouldn't take over an hour when you have an appointment. To the vet doc: Respect people's time. We make appointments for a reason. Your paying customers shouldn't be sitting around for an hour while you socialize.

Our bulldogs LOVE coming here. Dr. Bob is a great vet, he has always been helpful. His approach and genuine caring for our Kids has been wonderful. We rescued a Bulldog three years ago, with more than a few health issues due to neglect, Dr. Bob took a very systematic approach to treating him and the results have been amazing. He truly cares about the animals he treats, and our little man is not a fan of going to the Vet, but he loves going to see Dr. Bob. Thank you Dr. Bob

My wife and I have been taking our dogs here for years. Everyone, from the front desk to the vet techs, is so kind and caring. They know everyone by name. One of dogs has always been scared to go anywhere else, especially when he gets his nails clipped, but when he goes here he is comfortable and relaxed and let's them clip is Nails with no problem at all. And they dont try to over sell and rack up a bill. I can't take my dogs anywhere else ever.
