Nice building and relatively good prices. However Rude employees, long wait times even with an appointment. The doctor will rush the exam when finally being in the room after waiting. I'd recommend looking for a more hands on and friendly veterinary office.

Very helpful and supportive front desk, pet handlers, and doctors. I’ve been coming for about 3 years for the cat I adopted. This is my first cat so I had a lot of questions each year/visit and yet I was never made to feel bad for asking questions. Most recently, Esmeralda at the front desk was a perfect example of how to be kind and patient. She explained my cat’s procedures with good tone, pacing, and zero signs of annoyance. My cat Dolly will keep coming back!

I don’t get all these bad reviews. I nearly cancelled my dog’s teeth cleaning appointment when I read them. But I am glad I gave them a try, because they were great! My appointment was on a Tuesday- drop off between 7:30-8:30. I arrived at 8am, checked in at the kiosk and dropped off my dog in about 10 minutes. There were 2 other dog owners waiting to be seen at that time in the morning. I picked up my dog at 4pm. Again, there were about 2-3 others waiting to be seen, but nothing like the hours long wait in the other reviews. Maybe those reviews were from people who went on the weekend? Idk- it wasn’t crazy busy at all on a Tuesday. And the teeth cleaning itself was MUCH cheaper than what 3 other local vets had quoted me. So thank you, AMC!

If I could give no stars I would. This place is horrible. I need to have my pet seen by the vet it was a walk in visit no appointment. After 20mins of waiting they asked me to come back the next day because they were busy. It was a walk in so it's a little understand. So I scheduled for an appointment the next day. It's been almost 2hrs and my pet still hasn't been seen. What's the point of an appointment if they still treat you as a walk in? I highly recommend looking for another vet even if this is the closest one to you
