Raintree is amazing! Great docs,techs, hours and services. My cat also has kidney failure and they told me about a clinical trial for her. She qualified and was part of that for a year and a half and the results were great. Anytime something comes up, they are responsive, client-focused and talk honestly about options. Cant recommend them enough!

Great place and people. We get the liver treats for our girl and she loves them. The veterinarians are very transparent and honest here. The prices are also comparable to others in the area.
