Absolute worst veterinarian clinic when it comes to staff and their practices! The ladies at the front desk are always rude and unprofessional. The doctors seem to guess what the issue is, even after insisting on taking all types of bloodwork and X-rays. Overnight staff is completely neglectful. Not sure if they’re even in the building or just “observing” remotely? No matter the case, one thing is always clear, these people care about one thing and it’s not your pet. $$ If you opt to take your fur baby to these people, pleas... read more

Horrible service, and way expensive, they even add on. I spent $9K for them to tell me they don't know what's wrong with my Dog. Now I wouldn't have written this review on that as that can happen, I'm writing this because Dina was a horrible person and should not be working with animals...or people.

The public needs to be aware that the co-owner Mitch Robbins was DISCIPLINED by the IDFPR in 2002 for "inadvertently operating on the wrong leg." Always (yelp etc) scroll to the very bottom where it says "reviews not recommended." They are all negative and they all speak the truth that is why they are hidden. Our first visit with VSC set alarms off. After an extremely brief clinical impression by one of their vets two women immediately came in. The one woman was evaluating our finance plan for the day, ushering us to app... read more

I brought my angel to the center because he suddenly became gravely ill and his regular vet could not figure out why. Unfortunately, he passed away several hours after arriving at the center. My family and I were completely broken and devastated. The only consolation I had was that I would receive his ashes and a mold of his paw print. Imagine my horror and dismay when, a week and half later, I find out that the VET TECH who checked us in, and made immediately sure to take my $4,000 payment in advance, neglected to get the p... read more

This place has the worst communication I have every experienced. They are all about the money. They do not respect your time or love for your dog, which is the most important part. They lost our last PRP injection in a series for my dog. The manager also has terrible communication and I can now see why it is an "acceptable", contagious problem throughout that office. It is seeming that the whole diagnosis and treatment plan for over a year was wrong to top it off. PLEASE do not take you beloved animal to this facility.
