I don't have negative things to say about their knowledge of veterinary medicine or their ability to treat sick pets. My problem stems from their policy of taking in pets. My 14 year old English Springer Spaniel is ill, no surprise at his age. Their policy is that you have to drop your pet off. I asked if he had to be put down could I go in and they said no. That is just about the most insensitive thing I have ever encountered in my life. You have an old dog scared and he can't go in with his family. He has to be dropped off and make that walk alone! That is irresponsibly wrong for the pet and

My review is based only on the simple fact that their policy is to conveniently avoid mentioning to you on the phone the charge for the office visit. Naturally everybody loves their pet and will willingly pay a considerable amount to cure whatever ills your pet. On the phone they will ask a plethora of questions concerning your pet but not one mention of the $320.00 just to walk-in the door. This is totally separate from the hundreds more it will cost for blood work and medication. The doctor told me my cat would need blood work to determine the problem and the cost would be $220.00 + whatever
