Very happy with the service here. The staff and the doctor were very kind and attentive to my Rosa's care. The doctor and staff really listened to everything and gave her a very through examination and made me feel a lot more informed as to possible treatments for her.

They did not sedate my 19yr old before they stuck her. The first shot she screamed and flopped around. The 2nd shot put her down but she kept on breathing and by the third shot I wanted to die! It was aweful!😢

Dr. Suttle and Dr. Wellert are both great. I am a working line Doberman breeder (less than one litter per year) and they treat me with respect and kindness (some vets do not like breeders of any kind). They… answer all my questions, I don’t feel rushed, and the pricing is fair. I appreciate a well run, timely, respectful, clean and courteous vets office. Thank you to the staff for doing a great job, it isn’t an easy one!

My Ginger needed ASAP assistance and even though they were booked, they let me drop her off and saw her when they had time. They were loving, caring and made me feel like she was at the top of their priorities. Thank you so much Ark! I will never forget it!!!
