Do not go here. Vet is aggressive and rude. I took my healthy, house trained, confident dog to him once and after his aggressive nature with her she now pees in the house constantly, cowers when shes touched, shakes and runs when she hears loud noises. She never exhibited these behaviors before and did not show aggression or fear before her visit with him. I am completely heartbroken seeing her behaviors change when she has been nothing but a sweet loving dog.id also like to mention shes a rescue dog and he felt she was trying to bite him despite her not moving, growling, or showing aggression

Took one of my dogs in for a ongoing issue hes had. My regular vet could not see him for a month. It seems its easier to get a brain surgeon than a vet appt. This Dr takes walk ins on Saturdays! At first I was put off by his tone, and couldnt quite feel him out. Then when my dog (who has good discernment) took to him immediately, and his spirit tells that he really cares for his patients, all was well. Although the facility isnt modern and could use a little hell with a filing system, but from what I saw (and Im not nosey enough to dig deep) it is as clean as hospitals for people

I called about putting my 18 yr. old dog to sleep and I was being questioned why - understandable. Then I was questioned if my dog had all his vaccines - like a vaccine was going to be of any help at this stage. Hard enough going through the process on saying good-bye to an old friend and family member. I didn't appreciate being ridiculed about being behind on shots - 18 yr. Australian Shepard ... I think I know how to give a dog a full life. Stay away from this place.
