Report
This was our first trip to this veterinary practice. First impressions are it's very clean and organized. It's a nice place. Dr. Jones is knowledgeable and professional. He explained everything very well. Our cat has a complicated condition and he knows much about it and helped us to understand the importance of her medication and what we can do to get her treatment just right. Easy to speak with. The staff were also excellent. Prompt and courteous. Plum Animal Hospital was a good experience and we'll continue to go there.

So very friendly! My dog was very relaxed, and treated very well. First time here, but I will never go to any other vet.

Recently took my dogs here for their initial check up, and a few other things. It seems like a decent place.

Straight forward vet care from Dr. Jones. The rest of the staff is very caring as well. Just a bit hard to get an appointment when you need it lately.
