  We brought our very sick pup to Dr.Juan Sardinas. First of all, when I called for an appointment, Terry was knowledgeable and kind. Dr. Sardinas' dedication, sensitive manner was appreciated during our family crisis. To deliver the saddest information to a dog's family has to also be difficult. He did it with empathy and grace. With grateful hearts, we thank you. Mark and Linda Wilkoff

  Can’t recommend this place enough! After terrible experiences with Pender or other vets this location is for sure a breath of fresh air. Wait times can be longer but they do take care of you for sure. I have been here twice with my cat and they have been nothing but amazing.

  Unfortunately we had to visit The Regional Veterinary Referral Center when our 13 year old pup started having breathing difficulties. From the moment we called we were treated with urgency and compassion. We were met at the door by a tech who showed and amazing level of concern and immediately examined our pup and took her back into the OR quickly. Dr Kees called us back shortly there after and concisely explained the situation with compassion and laid out expectations and options while giving us choices. Unfortunately it was time. From that moment on everything was about keeping our dog comfortable and allowing us a dignified good bye. Dr Kees walked us through every step along our time line laid on the floor with us and cried as we said goodbye. Dr Kees was not our regular vet but cared like Heidi had been a multi year patient. Unfortunately we had to go but on the hardest day of our lives Dr Kees was amazing to us and our pup and eased any fear we had of going to an unknown vet after normal hours. Highly recommend and we will take any future pets to their care.

  Our 15 year old baby girl beagle had a medical emergency late last night and we searched our area frantically to find an emergency vet to see her. They got us in right away. All the staff were very kind and professional helping us get her in and out of our vehicle and checking her in. I was honestly on the verge of tears and can say I immediately felt relief and that our girl was in good hands. Dr. Nelson consulted with us and gave us results in a timely manner. I felt everyone there cared about the life of our baby girl and I did not feel pressure financially. It wasn't cheap but it wasn't anything beyond what we expected for quality care, especially in an emergency situation. Our baby girl is in recovery, thank you everyone at The Regional Veterinary Referral Center for being their when we needed you the most!

  I’m new to the area and needed to have a mass removed from my 10 yo male cat Turbo’s eyelid. I spoke with two vets, and was referred here. Prior vets expressed the concern that removing the mass in this spot could cause an eye deformation, preventing Turbo from closing his lid all of the way. Needless to say, I came in terrified; he’s my baby. Dr. Anderson was thorough, answered any questions and worries I had, and did an amazing job performing the surgery. Turbo healed within 2-3 weeks, and now that his hair is growing back, looks as good as new. I had worries about the amount of swelling after surgery, called and spoke with a lady up front (short hair) who was also so kind and supportive, and they allowed me to send in photos for the vet to see to ensure it was normal. Seriously, everyone I came in contact with was so kind to us, and so helpful. I wish I remembered to ask their names to personally thank them. I can’t imagine having a bad experience here after having such a pleasant one at just a scary time.
