- SBSarah BartlettNov 5, 20255.0My dog ate a big piece of his toy and we were worried he would need surgery if it got to his intestines. So we took him in to induce vomiting The Dr. was so nice and really individualized Winston's care. They noted that Winston was a bit wimpy when it came to injections (he's a screamer due to a past history of abuse from his foster) so after he threw up the toy, they opted to not give the reversal drug because they knew it stung and didn't want him to associate pain with vet injections. (Not giving the reversal just meant he was nauseated for a tiny bit longer, so there was no adverse effect to his health). They were kind, informative, and really cared about our pet's needs. And it was less than $300 which is less than we expected.
- YHYvette HoffmanNov 4, 20255.0I was in the way here this morning with my cat, unfortunately we didn’t make it in time. They were nice enough to confirm he was deceased. We took him back home. They were kind and helpful on the telephone. Thank you.
- CSChristine SwensonNov 3, 20255.0I took my cat in to be euthanized today, and the staff at VCA couldn't have been nicer. They gave my kitty a bunch of cat treats that she just gobbled up. And she purred through the entire procedure. Doesn't get any better than that.
- KKKaren KunoOct 30, 20255.0I brought in Anakin my 15 yr old cat with chronic kidney disease. He was constipated to the point where he stopped eating despite giving him the usual meds at home. The receptionist was friendly and prompt during intake. For emergency care/evaluation the cost to be seen was $200 without any treatments (high cost but expected since its ER care). Once checked in the staff came out to get more info on Anakin and took him back to examination room. Dr. Owen Lisa was the one who was treating him. She came out explained his treatment plan and follow up care at home. Dr.Owen answered all my questions and concern, great bedside manners since ER visit tend to be an emotionally nerve racking experience. Overall staff was friendly, and informative throughout the process. I recommend this place and will be returning for cat ER/Urgent care.
