I have been taking my cats and dogs here for over 20 years. The staff has always been fantastic, personable and kind. They care so much that they were in tears when we had to say goodbye to our pets. The vet even called me with condolences after we made that decision at an ER and not in their office. My puppy loves going there and always gets excited when we get to the parking lot. I will continue to take my babies here as long as we live here!

My dog loves coming her! Even when the assistants arent working with her they make a point to come say hi to her. They are a bit costly, but as long as they take care of our baby Im willing to pay the price

Friendly staff. Treats my dog nicely and they don't muzzle, despite him being 100 pounds. Reasonable priced.

They were extremely nice and helpful. Very caring. Dr. Kim Cross acted and treated us like we were good friends and we had just met her for the first time today. Dr. Kim Cross was very sweet and told us exactly what was best for our cat, Mia Quesenberry. The front staff and her assistants were kind, gentle and very caring. I highly recommend them to everyone. Thank you Dr. Kim Cross and staff!

Have been taking our dog here since she was a puppy. She got sick earlier in the year and the vet seemed to have no idea what was happening and prescribed us expensive medicine and food that never worked. Wasted so much time and money watching our dog deteriorate. The last thing they told us was to go spend even more money on a test that would probably come back inconclusive. Unwilling to do that, we found a new vet and got a diagnosis after our first visit that saved our dog's life. We also have had issues with the front desk staff being short and rude on the phone when we had questions.
