Been taking our cat and dog here for years and Dr. Amend has been so great. She’s very personable too! She has a true passion and shows that in her work. She will listen to your worries and is very very knowledgeable in her profession. Her empathy is shown strongly through the way she talks to the animals and families she works with. This hospital is filled with kind and understanding staff! Totally recommend.
I am so happy I chose Waka vet when I got my puppy. Avery is extremely helpful with everything, especially my one time mail/phone, questions and the vets there are always incredible
I had to put down my best friend yesterday. It was one of the hardest things ive ever had to do. They were so compassionate and supportive and kind through the whole process, gave me the information without trying to convince. They gave him the dignified and loving passing that he earned after 15 years of loyal companionship. I love you Max, you are already so missed. ❤️
