    We had to put our dog down that we have loved for 16 yrs. We went in in the middle of the night and everyone was so wonderful to us and made the process easier even though it was the hardest thing we have ever done. Thank you so much.. His Name was Perry!!

    The people there are very compassionate of not just certain animals and people, but everyone. They take their job very seriously and provide details on what they are doing and why.

    I had the most wonderful experience here last night. My dog began having seizures yesterday evening. I brought her here, znd I cannot tell you how compassionate Dr. Yang and his team were. Dr. Yang took time to discuss the diagnosis and treatment options available. He saw the worry and pain in my eyes and did his best to make sure she was able to come home with me with medication therapy. He was thorough in his explanation and really listened to my concerns. I feel like if I took my baby somewhere else, she may not have been able tk clme home with me. I'm so grateful to Dr. Yang and his team for taking care of my angel. I was awakened to her wet kisses this morning, so I am definitely smiling.

    My 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.

    I 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.
