“Yesterday I had to put my beloved dog down. Anyone who has had to do this knows just how tough it is. Dr. Watkins and his staff were super compassionate and empathetic and made the process as smooth as it could be. I'm sure he's done this many times, but you could feel his sadness. We've been going to this father and daughter team for half a dozen years and I would never go anywhere else. They are not pushy, they love animals, their team is amazing, and they know what they are doing. Yesterday afternoon I received flowers. I immediately teared up when I saw who sent them....Dr. Watkins and his team.“
“Our little doxie was in very bad shape with a possible cancer diagnosis or liver failure over Thanksgiving. She gave his belly a very thorough exam with ultrasound going over his bloated tummy looking at every organ multiple times. Needless to say, he was very sick and we were in fear of loosing him. It was a very real possibility. Dr Ward is a genius and figured out the problem. He went in for multiple checkups and bloodwork to monitor his condition. Here it is 4 months later and his labs are basically back to normal! Liver failure is gone! He is doing very well. Also, the entire staff gave our boy so much attention and were so gentle with him and his dire condition. I cannot thank them enough. She saved our dog.“

“I have a gorgeous miniature wire haired dachshund who finds sunbathing by the pool preferable to going to the vets . However, she is put at ease when we see Dr David Smith .. He is an excellent vet and really cares about her health and well being .Very pleased to have such good care given to her every time we visit ,and all the staff are very kind and helpful too.“
“Great service and Dr Romero is always looking out for your pets best interests and for your wallet. I highly recommend this practice.“
“My Great Dane Quinn is about as brave as a mouse. I love this office. Tiffany came out first to say hello and give her a pep talk. Then the tech came to take us to our room. They are so patient and kind. Dr. Funk walked in. Smiled at Quinn and then went right over to her slowly. Bent over, touched his head to hers and gave her the sweetest hug …..and he held it. I am so happy I found this place.“
