My dog was boarded for 3 days and they didn't think it was necessary to tell me his beautiful black nose had been scraped off and bleeding. We had emergency contact to pick him up less than a mile away in the event which he needed. You can see pictures on my page. It never healed right and now my $2000 pure bred Maltese with amazing blood lines has a dented pink nose. No offer for reimbursement. When we left they told me the vet had seen it and when I called back 30 mins later the vet asked me to bring him in so she could take a look at him. So a little contradiction. I have never written a bad review. They seem like nice people and a good vet. Perhaps lack of communication and wasn't fully cared for? Read Less

I absolutely love and recommend this clinic. We have a rescue dog who's afraid of all strangers, men, and most other dogs. The staff are so wonderful and our dog actually loves their male tech. The vet care has always been personable and great. The daycare is small and intimate and our dog has fun there. He's made doggy friends, not too overwhelming with heards of dogs like at other places. Very personal care and they always know his name. We recently moved and I'm really going to miss them! Read Less

I am 25 and a first time pet owner and after adopting my cat she had numerous issues with various illnesses and complications because of her time on the street and in the shelter. Both Dr Beyer and Dr Mullins are so sweet to my cat and very kind to me. They answer all of my dumb questions and make me and my cat feel comfortable no matter what we are there for! They take great care of my cat and I am very happy with every experience I've had so far. The clinic overall is great as well. They call to follow up and remember me and conversations we have had. I know my cat and I are in great hands here. Highly recommend. (And I've had no issues with cost estimates being wrong) Read Less
