When Dr Ross was the vet at the clinic he was marvellous, treated pets and owners with care and there is Dr Lawless, again a caring vet who cared about a pet's suffering and pain,but when we took our elderly cat suffering from cancer there to be euthanised as in agony,another man vet there gave no pain medicationneither in the cat's last days nor on the day we took cat into tb euthanised as it in great pain, we were kept waiting for over 15 mins to see this man, who then went away  to check he said on what kind of sedative could be given to the cat as it hated vet visits and we wanted it to feel calm not upset, and three quarters of an hour later he returned , no contact at all in all that time , gave the cat a shot, disappeared for another 15 mins, then took cat away to put in a catheter into a vein, then back in with cat and gave cat final shot, meaning cat was there 1 hour and quarter before euthanasia, when it could have had a sedative and a final shot immediately it arrived. Dr Ross nor the lady vet Dr Lawless would never have done this inhumane act.  No pain relief the final weeks of cat's life. Unnecessary wait the final time after arrival. Then bickering about cold storage of the cat till we could get pet cemetery to be open to bury it, yet Dr Ross would have been happy to do so and had done so when previous pets died and ground too hard to bury pet. Avoid this one man vet there if you can,he apparently is from the USA, Hollywood..If that is how he was trained, to be insensitive to the cat and its owner ,then maybe Dr Ross's clinic is not where he should be. Other vets there are good. Dr Ross is retired sadly and unfortunately D Garbutt Read Less

I think that they have food service but it's kind of worrisome. The first time I brought my furless baby into here and got her one year shots. We went home and noticed a bump/bubble kind of like a goose egg size a human would get on your head but not hard. And come to find out that can be from doing too large of a dosage of medicine. I haven't heard anything good or bad about this place, just my experience.. I also took a cat in at one point for deworming and whatnot but they decided to wait a couple hours after dropping her off and call me to come back later when they haven't even done it yet and did all the shots when I got there around 6pm then left with my baby. Just an interesting place I don't think they have strict standards...? I don't know though. Read Less

We've brought our pets here for sometime, but don't make regular visits as we have indoor cats that have always been healthy. However, despite being an indoor cat, our cat got fleas and we also had a new 6 week old kitten in the home. I had asked for an appointment this evening, but due to either a miscommunication or clerical error our appointment ended up being in the system for the next day. With our schedule that just didn't work. Dr. Llera and his staff went out of their way for us. Although we had to wait a bit, he and his staff stayed after hours just to care for our cats. The exam wasn't rushed, and they still included the complimentary nail trimming for our cats. In addition, Dr. Llera further offered to call other vet offices to find a flea medication suitable for our new kitten since we can't use advantage on him for 2 more weeks. Excellent customer service. I can't express my gratitude enough.Read Less

I used to be a client here...many years ago. In the beginning I loved the clinic. Hugh Wiley was the best vet around. After Hugh's accident, I continued to take my pets there and saw many other vets.. one of those vets was Ken Rutledge (who now owns McEwan). My old bouvier had been diagnosed with bladder cancer by Dr. Ross. This was all confirmed through x-rays etc. I had to take Tosca in for some more x-rays and that involved anesthetic. When I picked my dog up later that day he was lame...he couldn't put one of his front paws down and that was not an issue when I dropped him off. Dr. Rutledge told me that he had arthritis...very common in older dogs. When I said that he didn't have it before we got there he told me that sometimes it can appear very suddenly. I was not impressed, but did take the medication offered to make my boy more comfortable. A few days later he was back at the vet and another x ray (keep in mind I'm being charged for all of this...meds, extra appt. and another x-ray) confirmed that he didn't have arthritis...he had an injury. Dr. Rutledge then admitted that maybe he had fallen off the table when he was coming out of the first anesthetic. I was beyond angry...and I didn't feel that I should have to pay for the meds, 2nd x-ray or vet visits when it was their fault. I tried to contact Ken Ross numerous times to discuss this, but he never once returned my call. I refused to pay...and ultimately they called a collection agency on me. All of this could have been resolved if Dr. Ross had called me back to discuss this. I had been going there for 12 years at this point...with 2 dogs and in total 4 cats. They made a lot of money off me over the years and I would have continued going there if I had been able to express my concerns and work something out with the owner. I was not looking for free treatment...but I didn't feel that I should be charged for something that was caused by their negligence. Read Less
