Dr. Alice and staff are wonderful. They always treat our furry friends as if they are the most special animals they've ever seen. They are extremely thorough and take the time to review their exams, discuss results, and make sure we understand everything we need to know about our pets' health. We would highly recommend Metropet.
*UPDATE* We recently had to make the heart wrenching decision to put down one of our beloved dogs. He just flipped, and bit me several times through my sweatshirt breaking the skin 3 times and bruising my arms terribly. We didn’t know what to do, because after he flipped, he settled down and acted normal. We decided to make an appointment to talk with Dr. Alice. We knew that Dr. Alice would not recommend euthanasia unless it was absolutely necessary. After talking with her, we came to the conclusion that our dog had become a safety issue, to our family, my husband and I and our kids, as well as to others. Unfortunately, he was a rescue so we didn’t have much background information on him. His aggression was getting progressively worse and had reached a tipping point when he bit me multiple times. Dr. Alice and her staff were absolutely WONDERFUL. They let us have time with our Cooper, they let us give him basically every treat in the room we were in :) we took lots of pictures, and we stayed with him for as long as we wanted and then while he was given a tranquilizer so he would go to sleep. ( They tranquilize the animal before giving them the final shot, so we were able to stay with him while he knew we were there, but did not have to stay for his final moments.) It was absolutely heartbreaking and I think everyone in the office was crying or choked up when we left. They were all beyond accommodating, offering water and tissues, knowing that it was extremely painful for us to have to let Cooper go. We know that we made the right decision, even though it was extremely hard, and it helped to know that our vet backed up and supported our decision. We cannot thank them enough for helping us through that.
Our new happy news is that after grieving for Cooper, we were apple to rescue a new puppy 2 weeks ago. She has already had her first appointment at MetroPet and she received the care and warm family welcome that we are accustomed to. I still, HIGHLY recommend MetroPet Veterinary Clinic. I promise, if you trust them with your furbabies, you will not be sorry. Read Less
