  They advertise same day walk in service I've been told to come back , Even when I call in advance they always say they have no regular appointments , So it's emergency care !

  If I Could give zero stars I would requires payment before they do anything even in an emergency when an animal is in dire need of help. My mom and dad took our dog there yesterday and she had been attacked by something and had fluid on her lungs and they wouldn’t do anything unless we had almost 1000 dollars to pay them right then and there so we brought her home and she passed away and I blame it all on this vet clinic because every other vet clinic I know would have worked with us on the bill and still seen her and helped her and then just billed us So don’t ever take ur pets here if u want them to be taken care of in an emergency and u don’t have the funds to pay them

  TLDR: Get a second opinion or come informed, don't be afraid to discuss the treatment plan you are given. You are your dog's best advocate. At the end of the day, I was able to get proper treatment from this vet, and my dog is now right as rain. I am extremely grateful they were able to book me in last minute sunday evening for something that was not an emergency. Everyone was super sweet and kind. However: I debated writing this review, but I feel it’s important to share my experience. My 7yr old dog developed a very mild ear hematoma sunday evening. I called in and they were able to book me in that evening (awesome!). In the spirit of starting treatment asap to stop discomfort and further infection, I started the hour drive over to this vet. After a cytology, I was told surgery was my ONLY option. Confused, I explained that I wanted to try treating the infection first, given how early and mild the hematoma was, but surgery continued to be strongly pushed despite my clear reluctance. After I fully declined, I was told I would need to sign a waiver stating that I was refusing her treatment (over a EAR HEMATOMA). This made me immediately distrust the vet and left a sour taste in my mouth. The vet and tech I interacted with were extremely kind and I genuinely have no ill will toward them, but I was extremely uncomfortable with how limited my options were presented considering this was not my first or second rodeo with hematomas. Surgery, in my experience, was for extremely bad hematomas, and usually treating the infection or bleeding the ears (if bad enough) is the first course of action. I saw no reason to put my dog under anesthesia if I did not need to. I have never had a vet lay out my options like this before. Usually they discuss what it is, what my options are (if more than one), and what they recommend. As of tuesday morning, with prescription ear drops and anti-inflammatories, the hematomas are completely gone with no ear "crinkling". My dog did not need expensive, unnecessary surgery, and I’m disappointed the veterinarian presented it as the definitive option and told me I would have to sign a waiver (as if I was delusional and making the wrong choice).

  Great vet, my new kitten Kiara had her first vet check up this afternoon. They were very kind to her and treated her with care, she was very scared because she’s had a lot of new experiences recently and they handled her perfectly. Thank you.
