Ive brought all my animals and my parents animals here for years but this morning I showed up for my 8am appt at 750 and the doors were still locked. I went back to my car until 805. I walked back up to check in and the doors were still locked so I waited outside for a few minutes. One of the vet techs came to the door and put down a door mat and walked away. I have 2 kids and 2 dogs in below zero temps standing out front waiting to get in after my appt time and she doesnt even acknowledge us. Thats when I decided I need a new vet. Ive always liked this place and the people that work

We saw Dr. Taylor for my 12 year old golden retriever who had a skin infection. They fit us in their busy schedule. Staff was so nice and caring. Dr. Taylor and his vet tech answered all my questions and didn't rush me. I highly recommend Colonial Manor!

Our golden was pretty sick at 2am and I was concerned so I showed up 20 minutes before they opened at 8am. I was greeted by a polite "empathetic" receptionist, who immediately text the doctor and then made us comfortable while we waited. Our Sebastian is feeling better and confirmed for me, why I go to Colonial... they CARE!
