    Spoke to employee and had a good conversation. Offered to refund for medicine, I refused because that's not why I was upset, but they seemed to have refunded me anyway. I appreciate the gesture and I am looking forward to continuing mine and my little Maggie's relationship with VCA.

    I Just left VCA , Joliet Location. I could not be happier. I have a 8 week old adorable Kitten, who has visited VCA twice now. First the Staff, all of them are very experienced, you can just tell how they interact, and handle the animal. They also enjoy what they do, it shows. I also wanted to write about the facility. First very cool, walking in you go left for dogs into one lobby, or right for cats, into the second lobby..Soooo smart to help keep the cats and dogs seperated. They also schedule you the right way- they dont schedule a few at the same time, and have you waiting in the lobby with other animals. They schedule you , confirm the night before, and when you walk in at your scheduled time they get you right in! Your animal will more than likely not have to interact with another pet... I feel blessed to have VCA so close to my condo.. They do things the right way.. Bryan

    I received a call from a very ignorant worker. She was very rude to me about my care plan. When I tell you she was disrespectful and unprofessional, it was ridiculous! I’ll never take my pup back there because if you treat the customers horrible, I know you all are treating the pups horrible! I wish I would have recorded the rudeness of the woman on the phone..

    I go there for my kittens and Cheri is the absolute best! She is so helpful with getting appointments and understanding what shots and treatments they need and pricing, she's a godsend. My pets are well taken care of and I'm so glad I'm with this animal hospital!
