West Market Veterinary Hospital

I took my dog, Joplin in yesterday because her ear was swollen. Now, Joplin can be a little snappy when she's scared so I am always worried about bringing her to the vet. She did fine until one of the nurses tried to take her in the back to check her weight and then she growled and snapped at her. Joplin was shaking because she was so scared at this point. The nurse (I can't remember her name but she was a redhead) was an absolute professional and actually apologized to US for scaring her. We told her it was not her fault and apologized for Joplin's behavior and suggested a muzzle just to be safe. Dr. Ron was AMAZING with Joplin. Just the right amount of stern but super sweet with her and didn't seem bothered by her trying to pull away from him. Joplin really responded to his tone and allowed him to do his job with only a few minor attempts to escape. He just said "no one likes going to the doctor. She's just fine" and continued to tell her she was a "good puppy" even though she's an old lady of 9 years now. This was such a relief to me as I have had vets act scared or annoyed when Joplin has acted up. They really made me feel reassured that it wasn't anyone's fault and that she was just reacting to being in a new place with new people poking and probing her. Turns out she has a hemotoma on her ear. Dr. Ron explained that our options were to let it heal on its own which will likely result in cauliflower ear but with no pain to her, purely cosmetic or a $900 surgery. Unlike other vets I have been to, he didn't push surgery or any other expensive procedure. He even told us that while they sell ear cleaner, we could easily make it it home. I didn't get any of the usual guilt trips about other procedures or bringing her into the vet more, which is something I have gotten from other vets. They really cared about Joplin's well-being as well as not charging us an arm and a leg for her care. I will be suggesting West Market Veterinary Hospital to all my friends and family and will be bringing my other dog in ASAP. Thank you so much Dr. Ron and your staff for the amazing care. Joplin says thank you too! Read Less

My husband and I just love Drs. Ron and Liz.. they have been taking care of our fur baby Diamond for over 10 years, I made the mistake of taking her to a vet (for a few years) that lived closer to me..that turned out to be a BIG MISTAKE and nearly cost my fur baby her life, I was told by the other vet that my baby had cancer, after taking a ton of blood work, I called Dr. Ron and asked him if he would review her blood work, he was on his way out of town but he took the time to look at her blood work and assured me my baby did not have cancer..!!! what she had was pancreatitis, Dr. Ron gave her some medicine and changed her diet and she is still with us. I can't thank Dr. Ron enough for being the caring, attentive and gentle vet/person that he is, if you have a pet it will thank you for being smart enough to bring them to Dr. Ron and Dr. Liz..!! I will be taking Diamond to Dr. Ron and Dr. Liz until her demise. Read Less

The people here are great. They care enough to take time to spend with you and your pet and explain everything in detail no matter how long it takes. I never have to wait when I go and they can usually see me the same day if need be. Highly recommended! Read Less

A friend recommended this vetinarian for my new dog Sophie I just adopted from the animal shelter. Called at 730am and was able to get an appointment for the same day at 830. Sophie and I got the about 6 minutes early and was immediately greeted. Filled out the her paperwork. It took me longer to fill out her paper then it was for us to be passed back to the exam room. Sophie was a little nervous but Dr Ron and his vet tech where very good with her which I loved. Dr Ron answered literally every question I had ( which were plenty since I had just got her and I wanted to be as informed as possible.)He also gave me some great information on grooming and feeding. She got her medicine and he also gave me instructions on how to give them to her. We also got a neat welcome packet. Needless to say Sophie and I will be back. Loved all the attention my sweet baby girl got. Definitely going to recommend to everyone I know. Read Less

West Market Vets have been taking care of our beloved Walt since he was a puppy, seven years ago, and they have always been loving, caring, and attentive. They explain things clearly, and have a very gentle way with animals. We recommend them highly to anyone who wants a family vet they can trust. Read Less

This was my first time here and from the moment I walked in the door the atmosphere was awesome. After all was said and done the Dr sat with me for a bit just to answer some questions not even regarding the appointment. Very patient and kind. Think we've found our vet!! Read Less

Took our new Bichon Frise, Jackson Guilford Blake, for his first exam since being rescued from the local county shelter last week. Had a great visit with Dr. Elizabeth. She was very thorough, professional, loving, and spent a lot of time answering questions and looking at our pet. Very very happy with the visit. Glad to have found her through our friend Mary, and we feel much better knowing we have a great vet on board to take care of our little puppy! Read Less

Since my old veterinary hospital closed I was stressing out trying to find a new one that was just as good or better than my old one so I took to Google and found this one and I must admit Dr.Ron is the absolute best he took his time with my sweet girl and made sure all my questions was answer I love this veterinary hospital and I don't see myself going anywhere else he made me feel so comfortable at our 1st visit!!!

If I'm going to have to take my animals to the vet, I'm so glad I can take them to West Market! I always feel that they are well taken care of and Dr. Ron and Dr. Elizabeth always spend plenty of time answering any questions I may have. Read Less

I would like to thank West Market VET for the outstanding service I have recently received from them. I am beyond ecstatic with the love they have shown Chanel (my cat) and I. She seemed to be losing weight and Dr. Elizabeth was able to give me different treatment options for her recent diagnosis of a condition known as hyperthyroidism. I was so pleased with the knowledge of the staff and the cleanliness of the facility. I know vet bills can rack up but West Market Vet was very affordable and gave me accurate pricing before any test was done! Dr. Elizabeth was so patient and honest with me. She even called for a follow up! THEY REALLY DO CARE FOR YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES!!! Thank you again from Chanel and I. Great job! -Meow!! Read Less

Dr. Ron is an excellent Vet! He took his time, talked with us and answered all of our questions. Their office really cares about our animals. They would call us to remind our appt.( our other old vet didnt do that at all.) This office amazes me!!! My kids really liked Dr. Ron. He is very friendly and easy to talk to. I am deaf and he talks slow and I can read his lips pretty well! We are transferring all of our animals to this office because our other vet went out of business. I am so happy and found this vet!

Highly disappointed! My dog got blisters on all 4 of his paws, he seemed to be in pain so I wanted to take him in to see if there was anything more I could do for him. His appointment was at 10:30. During his 10 minute appointment, I was told nothing really could be done for him and it would have to heal over time. With that being said, I was appalled that they charged me 46.00 for doing absolutely NOTHING! I will not be bringing my dog back here. I would not recommend this vet to anyone. This was absolutely ricdiculous. My dog has been coming here since he was 8 weeks. And to think they charged me a "sick visit" and nothing was done for my dog is absurd. Read Less

I was scared when I first walked into your clinic because I was having a hard time walking. Erin brought me a nice comfortable mat to lie on, but then I realized that my mommy was across the room. I tried walking over to her, but I was still having a very hard time walking, so she came and sat on the floor next to me. When Dr. Ron came in, he just sat down on the floor right beside me and gave me lots of hugs and comfort. I thought he was wonderful! Plus, the best part is that he gave me some pills to take and they're making me feel much better already. I really don't want to be sick or get injured anymore, but I sure hope I can visit Dr. Ron again! Did I say I think he's great!! Tango Hayes Read Less

AMAZING!! They are so wonderful here. We brought our dog in for a sick visit and the 1st time is free. They let us know a specialist to go to but with our dog not eating right then they were so nice and gave us a calorie supplement for her to take until we were able to go to the specialist. Sadly our dog passed but I will definitely bring my others for them to care for. They are so professional but at the same time so caring!! Read Less

I was very happy with the care and service. I took my dog to them a half dozen times, and saw both Dr. Ron and Dr. Elizabeth. I particularly liked Dr. Ron, but they were both friendly, compassionate, and knowledgeable, and were able to clearly explain things - even the things I didn't want to hear. My first exam was free. I gave 4 stars only because I was once billed for something that I did not think I should have been billed for, and when I objected Dr. Elizabeth did not resolve the issue to my satisfaction.

My dog started suffering from a terrible UTI last Thursday night. I had to work on Friday and needed an earlier appointment. I wasn't able to get in with the veterinarian we have seen before in time for me to make it to work. I called West Market Veterinarian Hospital and spoke with such a kind woman who set up an appointment right away. The relief vet was on duty and super friendly! All the staff was! I was given helpful antibiotics for my pup. Everyone was wonderful! My only complaint is the sales pitch about an expensive food that is suppose to target your pets ailment of the day. That was disappointing, but all else was great!!! I would recommend this practice. Just be prepared for the food pitch;). Read Less

Good experience: as a new patient, my cats' first exams were free. The staff was competent and professional. The vet was personable and happy to explain things. My cats' still hated it, but what do they know! Anyway, they came out of it with a clean bill of health. This clinic also offers grooming and boarding services. Read Less

My pup Sheba and I love Wet Market Vets. Erin, the Docs...the entire present staff is fantastic. We moved out of state but will travel back to have our annual exam!  Everything that the Docs ever recommended has been the purrrrfect advice and we are so appreciative of all of them there.     And by the way, besides incredibly comprehensive check-ups and nurturing healthcare, you can get a wonderful bath as well.

My boyfriend and I just got our puppy Marley a week ago. Since we are new owners and we didn't know of a vet, so we googled a vet that was nearby. We called West Market Veterinary Hospital and they were able to see us that same day. We went in and the staff were so friendly! They doctor answered all of our questions, gave us information we needed and made everything so quick and simple! I would definitely recommend this vet to all my friends and family! Very happy we chose this vet for Marley.Read Less

We came in because our dog Marley had not been to the vet in a while and needed 3 shots in order to staying at a boarding place. We were worried because it had been so long but Dr. Ron Murray was awesome. He examined her and told of us of any issues that were going on with her. The Assistant was very friendly and pleasant and made the process a lot smoother for my Marley. She's a barker but they were able to get her calm enough for a smooth transition. I thank them for all their help and we will be back for her heart worm exam. I would recommend this vet to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable and friendly place to take their pets. AWESOME!!!!
