She is doing great.Sue H.Sue H. ★★★★★ Staff is very friendly and informative they seem like they really care about what’s best for your fur babies!! I am new to the area and needed to bring my baby in to be seen and when I called the day before I asked if I could get in asap and they booked me next day and also got all of Max’s records from previous vet so they already knew about him before we got there.. to me taking the time to get his records from the old clinic so fast was a great first impression!

We had a last minute issue pop up with one of our cats, and they were able to book her an appointment the next day.

We waited at max maybe 5-10 minutes to go back and didn’t have to wait hardly at all in the exam room.
