They keep my kitties healthy & me happy! I've been taking my cats there for years for their routine vaccinations and exams as they need them. I've had only the best of service at my visits. The veterinarian on duty is knowlegable, quick, and overall makes it a painless experience for my cats so they can get back to the comfort of their own home quickly. I think the hardest part for them is getting in and out of the carrier. But, who's kitty actually wants to go in there lol?! As for personality, this guy has a big one! He's ... read more

amazing care and great prices! Dr. Walia and his staff is what makes this place such a success! he has been a vet for about 40 years! meaning hes got more experience then most vets out there by far! I've been taking my pom, Siberian husky, and great Dane there for years and I have never been upset by the work they do. Dr. Walia is straight to the point because that's what a doctor is supposed to be that way it saves the clients and their beloved pets the hassles and time. However he and the staff are extremely compassionate ... read more

Great staff I have taken all three of my purebred pomeranians to Westgate. Dr. Whalia is a great vet, he is a little abrasive personality wise but he is just direct. Their office is affordable and their staff is very kind always accommodating. Dr. Whalia has had pomeranians so he is great with small dogs. My one pomeranian has a heart condition and he has kept her alive many years past expectancy.

This Vet Clinic is the BEST Dr. Walia and his clinic provides the finest in vet care I have ever had. He has been my vet for well over a quarter century. I have Pekingese dogs and he has treated all of them. He is patient, caring and the best vet I have ever known. His prices are lower than most and his office staff is caring and wonderful. In all, he has treated eight of my dogs over the years and I would not trust them to anyone else.

best vet in town The Dr. of this establishment is probably the best vet with animals I have ever seen. He is just a to the point kind of guy. Just because he does not be overly nice and stupidly tender with animals means nothing. I have taken a feral cat right out of the wild to him and he was the only person who could touch the animal. I also have a psycho cat that other more hippie types of vets have problems with, I took my cat to him and guess what, he could handle him. He has a gift with animals. Some people should stop... read more

Awsome sevice No nonsense Vet, I have taken one very large dog and two cats to the clinic. I got the service I deserved and the animals were treated very well. I would recommend the clinic to anyone I know. The dog was treated for an emergency visit a very bad cut to the foot, the doc handled his (175 lb Rottie) very well.

Cheaper, but not worth it I went there to get my 1 yr old pom her shots...but the vet on duty was rough with her...and didn't take into consideration how scared she was. He didn't greet or introduce himself to us, even though we were new. Basically we motioned for us to go into a smaller room, and he gave her the two shots, then left. He was not very gentle when he handled her and made her even more scared. Although the examination fee was 1/2 of what is of some other vets, I will not be returning to this vet. He did not see... read more

very caring I have had only good experiences with this hospital. All the staff have been very caring and treated my pets with TLC. I have had two dogs and three cats who they have treated for both shots and injuries. I have had to put to sleep a dog and a cat there and the staff has always been very considerate of me and my pets.
