    This place has completely gone downhill. The constant turnover of veterinarians is alarming — every few months there’s someone new, and the care gets worse each time. The new doctors are inattentive, dismissive, and seem more interested in rushing through appointments than actually helping your pet. They throw around medical terms you can’t understand, offer no real explanation or guidance, and walk out of the room as if your questions don’t matter. To make things worse, their prescription prices are outrageous — literally three times higher than what you can get on Chewy. When I confronted the staff about it, they simply printed out a prescription and told me to order it online. If they already know their prices are that inflated, why not fix it instead of making customers jump through hoops? I used to come here regularly, but this experience was the last straw. I will never bring my pet here again and wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone — not even to my worst enemy. Pet owners deserve better care, clearer communication, and honest pricing — none of which you’ll find here.

    Went because I needed to go but an employee whose name starts with an “A”. I refuse to embarrass her publicly — could’ve been nicer. People go to spend their money there. We could’ve went anywhere else, Target even or a ordered on Amazon. This person barely even had basic manners — “hello” “ how are you” how may I help you”. On top of being rude, she offered the Petco ad on service which was great and maybe I would’ve gotten had she been nicer or aware that she was working in retail / customer service. Get it together Petco and incentivize your employees to treat people with manners and KINDNESS. Basic decency.
