They did a really good job and didn't have to sedate her, which was really nice. She usually has to be sedated to be groomed but was at the age where that was no longer an option for her. I also took her there to be seen medically. I would highly recommend them to others.

I am very happy with them as a veterinarian. He is caring about the animals. He explains things very clearly. He answers all my questions. I took a stray cat in and this cat obviously needed some treatment. He gave it a couple of antibiotic shots and said they would not do the blood work. So he did not do the stuff that was not absolutely necessary. I did not adopt the cat, it was not really a stray it was my neighbor's cat but they were not taking care of it. It was coming to our house, it had an infection and it could not eat and they were only giving it hard food. He said that all it needed was soft food, so I put up soft food for it. It has since disappeared and I think it went out and died some place.

They are very good. The one doctor there doesn’t poo-poo any concerns; he takes them seriously and looks into them. He is very sweet with the pets. My beagle is 15 and he gets right down on the floor to talk to her. Their love of animals is just very apparent there. I don’t like to pay that much, but I imagine they are all about the same. I will definitely continue using them.
