  When in for the free exam that comes with parasite prevention mentioned it to Hannah went in for blisters on his paw the doctor was nice but I feel like their money hungry because the injection they made me purchase didn't do anything with his blisters at all, Hannah is very lazy when I would ask her questions that she didn't know anything about she would just leave it at that and I would have to ask her to find out. When I came to setting the appointment Hannah try to set it for the afternoon when I told her I needed a morning appointment and she wouldn't budge, so I had to call the next morning to reschedule it with another worker who had no issue doing it. Long story short went to another doctor I got the issue fixed for less than 20 bucks. Stay away unless you want a headache and a large bill and still they haven't reached out or even given me the parasite prevention for the free exam

  I recently called this veterinary clinic today 4/18/26 to ask for a simple price estimate for an X‑ray for my dog. I spoke with a very pleasant staff member named Vanessa, but she was unable to provide even a basic price range. I was told that the cost depends on the doctor’s treatment and that pricing can only be determined after the visit. While I understand that care can vary, an X‑ray is a common and routine service, and not being able to explain its general cost upfront is concerning. As a pet owner, transparency matters—especially when it comes to medical expenses. When a clinic can’t give a clear explanation or estimate for something so standard, it raises questions and doesn’t inspire confidence. I hope this call was recorded and reviewed, because clearer communication around pricing would go a long way to trust, you want me to trust you with my baby but then unable to answer a basic question, it’s a Chihuahua not a giraffe or a gorilla or a bear 5 1/2 pound Chihuahua. I don’t feel as not being able to be presented with a price in order to be able to get the customer in the door to then charge whatever they feel like charging is a bit of a scam. Buyer beware!

  We have been taking all of our family dogs here since before the hospital was at this location. This new location is very nice, spacious, and so clean! The staff is attentive, and knowledgable about the pet insurance informing us that majority of our routine care, including teeth cleaning and vaccines, are covered. This visit we got ear cleaning and rx, flea treatment and rx, 2 vaccines, and appointment for teeth cleaning under anesthesia. Dr DC is the warmest person and she sincerely cares about our family's experience at her clinic. She has been taking the BEST care of our family dogs for at least 2 decades and always resolves whatever issue there is. Its a bit of a drive to get here, and we drive past several other veterinarians along the way, but for us its worth it to bring our doggo to be seen by Dr DC. Our doggo is no longer itchy and scratching after our visit! We are very pleased.
