It's 2019, people. Those are old reviews, below. Dr Barrie, the most important reason we brought our dogs to this practice, is LONG GONE. He was the wise experienced true practitioner of the veterinary arts, but he's silently retired and he sold his practice to money-focused millennials, including Dr Twilla. First up-- pricey redecoration, then raising prices on absolutely everything from office visits, "administration fees" for shots, up charges for shampoos and medications (ouch!!) anal gland expression (up to $39...while PETCO charges $10) and ca-ching CA-Ching CA-CHING!! Be prepared for major--and we mean major--sticker shock. Front desk staff are new and brash, and loud. They make our dogs nervous, especially the woman. The office manager is very nice and helpful. But also too interested in selling you into wellness plans and insurance. We're in the wrong plan for our older dogs. Too late. Long waits even when you have an appointment. Doggy area outside needs cleaning up. Desk tries to force you into appointments with certain vets even if you are having a follow up visit and want to see the same vet you saw before. It's just really WAY WAY WAY too expensive, and if we're already paying for an appointment, really, you charge us again for administering a vaccine and again for the vaccine? We understand paying above the office visit for the vaccine, but an admin charge on top of the office visit charge? That's just insane. Sorry but we're already vet shopping. Read Less
