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.

If I could give 0 stars, that wouldn’t even suffice, this place deserves to be in the negatives. This is the worst veterinary hospital ever. The vets here are 100% incompetent. My dog was perfectly healthy with a slight limp that she developed after a week of intense running, that I was concerned about. The vet, Tiffany, was 100% incompetent and prescribed my 7lb dog a half a pill of 25mg carprofen. My dog got so sick, and has non stop been throwing up. Before coming to this awful place my dog was completely happy, expressed no type of pain, and was running around. After this visit and taking carprofen just 1 time she is so lethargic and sick. These vets do not care about the betterment of animals and are only here to milk money out of peoples pockets. Not only did she prescribe my dog the incorrect medication, but also Tiffany was so horrible and tried to examine my dogs leg by purposely inflicting pain and then saying my dog was in pain. She is so incompetent, I’m surprised this office hired her! I need a refund, and I need Tiffany to pay my vet bills after putting my dog at risk!! I’m disgusted of her and the people who work here!

Our dog occasionally gets ear infections and we simply wanted the prescription ear medicine. They tried to sell us a very expensive treatment plan instead. We went to our previous vet in mount vernon who made it very simple, easy and effective without high pressure selling treatment plans.

Great staff and always able to get my senior dog in to see a doctor when needed. Love the Wellness program and have been a member since it started! Well worth it to properly care for your four-legged family!

I had to put one of my babies down. Reception was wonderful and welcoming. The vet didn't have a very nice bedside manner. Took a unnecessary test that cost me another $200. Barely talked to me, no eye contact. I did recieve a beautiful symphony card signed by the whole staff. I will definitely go again, ask for different vet.

Two out of three veterinarians I've visited with my animals had been a good experience. My third experience, I absolutely have to question the competence of that vet and wonder more about the morals of the VCA establishment...as in how closely do these vets actually follow their "Veterinarian's Oath"? This veterinarian called for an ultrasound, x-rays and full panel of blood work equaling to about 1000$ right then and there. The condition of my dog was very dire but what was ordered seemed/felt VERY unnecessary! I took my dog elsewhere the following morning. At the other clinic it was concluded that what my dog needed was assistance in a comfortable passing. The VCA veterinarian's "testing" would have been completely useless for my dog, while also prolonging painful suffering, as well as an addition to being completely wasteful of my financials. Edit: After receiving a reply from VCA, a very low level of satisfaction resolve was made. To be clear it absolutely does not make up for their veterinarians lack of competence to make a professional & very needed call on my pet's well being. I expect every veterinarian I go to, too put forth full honesty! Unfortunately with my dog's case it felt more like profit had been placed over quality of life.
