  I called and they were able to work me in the next day. Staff are all very friendly and good about answering questions and updating price estimates throughout the visit. I was worried because this was our first time ever being to any vet but again they were very kind about everything. My cat is doing much better now thanks to their help. Will definitely come back here for future health checks and whatnot. The app/website from the email seems very useful for staying on top of that, but I haven't done much beyond downloading it yet.

  The staff was very friendly and they saw my cat Nippert right away. They explained what was wrong with my cat thoroughly and put my mind at ease. My cat is on the mend and I'm very happy with the whole staff. I'm glad I found such a great veterinarian clinic. I'm definitely making them my new veterinarian.

  Back in January, I was looking for a vet that specializes in reactive/ aggressive dogs because my sweet boy, Tito hates going to the vet, groomers, any place where he feels unsafe/scared. He has always been fear aggressive/reactive & I had had zero luck of any vets office being able to trim his nails which were getting really long & at the time was a concern of mine. So, I did some research online trying to find a good fit for my boy in hopes of finding a vets office that would be able to get it done. I had Tito muzzled before we went in to the clinic & I let them know on the phone prior to his appt that he was anxious and reactive. He was also on trazodone to help with his anxiety. When the vet, Dr. Manharth (older lady) came into the room she made a comment about how “scary” Tito had looked or something to that nature since he was muzzled. She also made it very clear that he could still bite her in that muzzle & that I needed to get a basket muzzle for him. She seemed very scared of him & the tech was barely able to hold him for the assessment. I offered to help hold him (& I let them know I am a dog groomer, so I know how to safety hold dogs effectively & safely)…. The tech & vet were able to get one of his shots before he freaked out too bad. Tito got out of the techs hold and the vet called it and didn’t want to do anything else. No true exam, she didn’t look in his ears or get much done at all… She said that he would need to be sedated for a thorough examination &/or nail trim. I was a little disappointed because I have seen much more reactive/aggressive dogs in the salon I work at vs the vet’s office… either way I left taking notes, & in the meantime bought a basket muzzle for him and trained him on wearing it. I have also been able to get his nails trimmed at the salon I work at with him muzzled twice now. Anyway, It had come to my attention over the last few weeks that Tito’s ears were infected & his pain was getting too bad. I was nervous to call the vet based on how Dr. Manharth reacted at our first visit but I swallowed my pride & called because my baby needed help. I called last Thursday & I will admit it was close to closing. One of the girls at the desk answered & let me know the veterinarian was gone for the day; she was very helpful, listened well, took notes, & said someone would reach out to me Friday morning to figure out a game plan for Tito. Friday rolls around & I didn’t get a call so I called around 4 something hoping to get a game plan before the weekend due to the amount of pain my dog was in. I think this time I spoke to a different young lady at the desk & was a little more frustrated since no one called & her only response for me was that the info from Thursday’s call had gotten relayed & that the veterinarian said he needed to be seen in office since he hadn’t been there since January but they wouldn’t do anything unless he was sedated. I said I have been working on muzzle training him with the basket muzzle she recommended & he will have it on before we come in. It’s absolutely ridiculous for a vet’s office to not examine a dog who is muzzled for some ear drops….. at this point I was so frustrated I asked to speak to Dr. Manharth herself & they once again said she had left for the day & that she would call me. Well, here we are on Monday evening (after 6pm) & I have yet to hear from anyone from DHVC. My fiancé & I went ahead & found an urgent care over the weekend who we took him to Saturday morning for some much needed help. They were able to see him that morning (with his muzzle on), examine him to their ability, allowed my fiancé to help swab his ear so they could test it, diagnosed the issue, & sent us on our way with ear drops & a steroid. It wasn’t that hard. My dog didn’t need to be sedated/knocked out & he is already feeling much better/relief now being on a steroid & given ear drops for the last 3 days… no thanks to this office though. We will never be returning & I do NOT recommend going here, especially if you have a baby who needs a little extra patience & care.

  I can't say enough good things about Dr. Grace Stearns and the entire team at Day Heights Veterinary Clinic. I brought my dog, Chester, in for an appointment, and from the moment we walked through the door, everyone was kind, welcoming, and genuinely caring. Dr. Stearns was incredibly thorough, compassionate, and took the time to explain everything she found during Chester's exam. She answered all of my questions without making me feel rushed and made sure I understood the treatment plan before we left. It's obvious she truly loves what she does and cares deeply about her patients. The staff was wonderful with Chester, making what could have been a stressful visit much easier for both of us. As a pet parent, it means so much to know your dog is in such capable and caring hands. If you're looking for a veterinarian who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and treats your pet like family, I highly recommend Dr. Grace Stearns and the team at Day Heights Veterinary Clinic. Chester and I are so grateful we found them!

  I have to share my experience because it was such a positive experience. We had a semi emergency, or rather a very concerning but non emergent visit. We saw Dr. Stearns, and a handful of technicians. Firstly on Dr. Stearns. She was absolutely amazing to visit. She did the exam in front of us/with us. Allowed us to be in the room. She took the time to get down on our level, and explain everything to us in a way we understood. She conversed with us, asked questions, allowed us to ask questions, and was very collaborative. All of this was very different from our previous Vet. The experience was so positive I couldn't stop commending them. The Techs. ALL of them were so incredibly polite and explanatory, and very collaborative. I was so impressed with their knowledge base, their bedside, and their general customer service and friendliness. We have been considering switching vets for a period of time now, and this experience has solidified Day Heights as our new care provider for our pets. EDIT: I also forgot to add, they ALL were so friendly to our Puppers, it was really wonderful to experience.
