One of the better vets I have used. Still difficult to get an appointment (probably a sign of their decency) but the staff has always been professional. Did my best to explain we couldn't contain my cat when when trying to give them a pill. Vet techs tried the towel method - did not go well but even after being scratched apart the techs were very professional and not upset with us. Would recommend.

Dr. Bryce is the BEST. Growing up with animals and working in kennels, I can honestly say that he is the most genuine and caring Veterinarian I've ever dealt with. He truly loves his profession and it shows. Blessed are your 4 legged kids if he is their doctor.
