Agree with NAV's review Feel like the doctors there were very money motivated. Charge you if you ask them send your prescriptions to an outside pharmacy as the meds were more than 2x the price there. Unneeded follow up appointments. Prices high. Poor Parking. Time to move on to another Vet

Feel like the doctors there were very money motivated and lacked empathy. Over years that we went to this practice, they never tried to accommodate our dog when she was sick and she always had to be treated elsewhere. They even charge you if you ask them send your prescriptions to an outside pharmacy. As a healthcare worker, I find their way of practicing deeply upsetting.

Very very disgusting unprofessional place! Susan is the manager. She hung the phone on me after I asked for the disgusting operator who was a woman’s name for HAVING A DISGUSTING ATTITUDE and tone. Susan needs to be FIRED. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF REPORTING THE BOTH OF THEM!

This is a very nice, welcoming little clinic. I took my cat here, and he was examined and treated with gentleness, and professionalism. Dr. Mendelsohn is a fantastic professional and the front office is very helpful. I'd highly recommend this place to pet owners who need quality veterinary services.
