My family has been taking our pets here since I was little (I'm 25 now) and they use to be fantastic! Now though, since a few wonderful vets left, they went down hill. I recently took my cat in, one my boyfriend and I rescued from outside, and I'm not happy. She got a full exam, and they said everything was fine! Well, turns out it wasn't. A few weeks later, my boyfriend and I both noticed that she was having us scratch inside her ear. Then wax started dripping out. Alarmed, I went to make an appointment, but they where booked 3 weeks out. I took her to another vet, and there we were told she had

If you want the best care for your equine, this is the place to call. They have taken care of my horses and donkeys from birth to euthanasia since the early 1990s. Such compassion and caring!

On April 19th 2021 we called early in the morning because we inadvertently ran out of the prescription pain reliever over the weekend. I called first thing in the morning and needed it really quickly because we had no way to get it later on. I had to bypass the prescription call line. And the lady that answered the phone was very kind and able to get it ordered for us and we were able to pick it up within an hour of the time we called. We went against all the called for considerations and appreciate the fact that they were able to help us.
