After having a horrible experience at my dogs old vet. Going to Redwood Animal Hospital was an eye opener how vets are supposed to treat animals. The staff was friendly and doctor made my dog feel comfortable and cared for. We had an amazing experience. We will be returning.
The doctor and staff are very nice. The doctor takes the time to know my pet dog and calm her. It is extremely hard to get vet appointments since covid and find a vet who is not actively scamming you. I am very lucky to have my two dogs as patients.
Dr Ruggs is very personable and answers all my questions promptly. I feel comfortable and at ease under her care over my kitty, Magic. Her vet techs and front office staff are also very sweet & helpful. They seem to work well as a team.
