We saw Tim, he was not judgemental and was extremely sympathetic and worked out an affordable plan for us to pay on behalf of someone else. Declan is an old boy who hates being picked up, but Tim wss so gentle and kind Decky didnt bat an eye! Would recommend this place to anyone. Amazing care and service.

When they haven't been able to help, they've known who to ask, and I've never doubted that they truly care about the animals they treat. I trust that they always provide the best information and treatment that they can, and they never do anything just to get money. My black lab loves it there so much I have to drag her out 😂. The many treats she gets there probably doesn't help...

We adopted our dog when she was 6 months old after she’d had a really tough start in life. We found later that she has severe hip dysplasia and we’re support through the process of action plans and which specialist would be best for us, given our insurance coverage and finances. She’s spend a couple days at the vets and each time I know she’s taken care of, whether that was for X-rays or her spay. Everytime we are reassured that she’s had lots of love, and the fact she LOVES visiting the vets proves that right! Having her spay was such an easy process, also the actual incision was so neat and heal super fast! Amazing vets with a lovely team!
