My first experience here was 9 years ago. My dog was getting nose bleeds and we suspected he had a tumor. They did the cats an he needed and confirmed then cauterized the tumor.

During our first visit before scheduling surgery, a student let us know she’d be taking our dog to the back to examine and then the vet would check over to make sure she did it right and she’d be right back.

Can’t recommend this hopsital enough!! Our new puppy had a medical condition we couldn’t figure out. Leave it to the hospital, with incredible students and experienced vets, and surgeons with great oversight and skills, who determined he needed one kidney to be removed! They saved our puppies life and have been there for us every step of the way. Amazing communication and efficient scheduling, your pet is just as important to them as you!

Extremely sympathetic and professional. Had to put down a horse . The doctors were very informative kind and compassionate. Made a very difficult decision as painless as possible.
