    I'm so happy with the level of care, value, and customer service here. These docs don't mess around. They're knowledgeable AND confident, so they didn't need to give me a bunch of decisions for me to make.

    To all the amazing crew members and Dr. Chapman at Desert Cross,

    I just wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you all for the incredible care you gave our dog today during her emergency C-section.

    It was stressful for me, but your calm, compassion, and expertise made such a difference. I am so so so grateful for the quick action, skill, and kindness shown by every person involved. It truly means the world to me that she was in such capable and caring hands.

    Please know how deeply appreciative I am for everything yall did for my girl and her puppies. Oh and being fair in pricing cause that means so much that I can pay for my animals to get treated...read full review

    Today we had nail trims and exams plus vaccines on 2 very large dogs who do not venture beyond their bubble very often... they were a mess. But.. The veterinarian here along with skilled and caring assistants provided great care for my animals. I will always recommend DESERT CROSS to anyone in the area seeking animal care.
