My cat was very calm during the visit and even laid comfortably on the scale with her paws tucked under the whole time. Our questions were answered fully. I will be bringing my other cat in as well.
October 2025: This review is long overdue! Shout out to Dr. Diego for seeing my dog last minute back in October 2025 when he had a dislocated dew claw accident. I was able to get Trazadone a couple of hours from the vet office before seeing Dr. Diego, which really helped alleviate the anxiety my dog was experiencing. I also appreciate how Dr. Diego was not pushy about certain interventions or medications I did not have the budget to pay for. Lastly, shout out to Leslie who was the nurse who took care of my dog. She was very kind, professional, and compassionate toward my dog. All of the front desk ladies are also very kind and professional. You all rock!

I visited this vet yesterday. It was our 1st time. Our 17 yr old terrier mix never really had to go to the vet before. The office is very nice and the people that work there are even nicer. Very patient, welcoming and just a wonderful place and reasonably priced too. I would 100% recommend this vet and absolutely go back again. Thank you for being so kind and taking such good care of our dog.
