Never come here unless you want to waste your time and money. I’ve had horrible experiences here. They take way too long for everything. Once I waited 40 minutes in the parking lot before they even took my cat inside. I feel like I got scammed out of $160 today they did bloodwork on her that wasn’t even necessary all they had to do was examine her tail which would’ve only cost me $15. They charge $52 for an examination but now I doubt they even actually look at my cat because I had to specifically ask them several times to look her tail her tail is literally bald and raw from my cat licking it. They said that they didn’t examine the tail because she was crabby but that’s what cats are like that’s not an excuse not to examine her tail. This is the 3rd time I’ve been back at this hospital for the same problem my cat hasn’t gotten better and every time I come here they say it’s due to a different problem which makes me believe they have no intention of helping my cat and they just want to scam me out of more money. They do a poor job explaining and communicating with you I had to specifically ask to find out what was wrong with my cats anal glands and what they even did to her. The employees are very rude and don’t even seem knowledgeable. I am never coming back here again I hope they shut down because all they’re doing is wasting people’s time and money my cat could’ve been getting treatment that actually works this whole time.

A yearly check up with shots is $100. They can bring you in that minute, which I like. One of the vets there is really nice.

We trust them with our animals. My puppy has a heart condition and they were very gentle and took care of our dog. It was a good experience. They make sure that all their animals had their shots. If you're not their customer, you have to provide proof for shots so the dogs are safe to other illnesses. They're very professional. I would recommend them to anyone. She does all the surgeries and different vets. We are very comfortable going to them. They have a reasonable price. I never had any complains.
