“Brought our mini doxie in for a sore on his ear. Dr. Kristi is ALWAYS prompt, professional, and knowledgeable. She also has fantastic support staff. We drive over 35min just to go to Dr. Kristi Nelson for all of our animals. Thank you for being amazing!“

“Crossroads was recommended to us by a friend after a horrible experience at Prior Lake Vet. Crossroads Dr's are fabulous. We had a senior dog whose ear was gushing blood (a cyst had burst) We made 2 trips to Prior (our normal vet at the time) on the same day, because the bleeding wouldn't stop. When it started up a 3rd time, we called and they told us to go somewhere else. Long story short, we ended up at Crossroads and they were so wonderful! The Dr worked through her lunch hour on our girl. She ended up needing to be put to sleep, but the Dr was caring and showed so much empathy. She sat in the room with my husband for an hour talking and listening while he shared memories with her about our Pepper. They didn't hurry him out the door. They let him have all the time he needed. Everyone was so sweet and kind. The way a vet should be. We have found our new vet! Thank you so much, everyone!“

“I had an emergency and needed to get a dog in ASAP (Our current vet couldn’t get us in). Customer service was amazing and it was extremely reasonable. I would definitely go back!“

“Pays a lot of attention to you and your pet. Dr. Hunt seems very dutiful and friendly as well as the rest of the staff.“

“Everyone here is so nice! I recently got a rescue dog, and I had some questions that needed to be addressed before the weekend. They were able to get us in, no problem, and the gals on the phone/front desk were so nice and accommodating. Our dog became reactive to another dog in the lobby, and the staff got us into a room right away. I waited over an hour at my last vet for a simple rabies shot (it was not busy), so I liked their promptness.

Lauren took her time with us, which I appreciate. She was very kind and eager to answer any question, but also specified when something was beyond her knowledge/for a speciality vet. I had a list of questions and concerns and she was thoughtful and methodical about each one. She was also honest about my dog’s luxating patella, and didn’t try to sell us on an unnecessary surgery. Instead, she recommended taking a more conservative approach and to watch closely and use vet recommended supplements. I appreciate a more transparent approach that isn’t an upsell, especially when it isn’t causing pain or other problems!

I see people say this is more expensive (maybe by like $30 compared to my other vet), but it’s absolutely worth it! Going to a vet is never something a pet owner really looks forward to. So when I go, I like when:
- it is easy to call and schedule, and I talk to someone friendly
- their full attention is with my pet
- they see us within a timely manner
- I’m comfortable asking any questions

This is also a smaller, privately owned vet, so of course it might be a little extra compared to other places, but it was definitely worth it! Everyone was friendly, fast, thoughtful, and kind. I definitely recommend this place!“

“Although I ended up at SMAEC unexpectedly and sadly had to say goodbye to my sweet cat, we received great care here. Everyone I interacted with was so kind and comforting. I appreciated everyone’s kindness and willingness to go above and beyond to offer support and care. Thank you to all SMAEC staff for what you do and the care you provide, especially during moments of heartbreak.“

“Docs and staff are fantastic. Our animals are receiving great care and Docs explaining the process. If your pets are family, this is your place!“

“Great people who genuinely care about their patients and their needs! Me and my family have been coming here for years. They keep my daughter happy and healthy!“

“Kristen and Dr. Anderson were so wonderful and caring with my 12 year old bearded dragon. He had been such a healthy lizard, that he had never been to a vet. Unfortunately, nothing could be done for Rocky, but they were so knowledgeable about the breed and assured me that I was doing the right thing in not making him suffer in any way. They were so kind through the process and let me take all the time I needed with him. I am thinking about rescuing a bearded dragon and I would not take them to any other vet. Monique“

“I couldn't have been more impressed or grateful. The professionalism and care they showed for myself and my friend made a difficult day easier. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.“

“We can't thank Julie enough for taking care of our dog Fred for several years of his life. She was the only professional who correctly diagnosed his allergies so we stuck with her ever since that moment. Later in his life she was an invaluable resource to keep him comfortable all the way up until the end. She always went out of her way to communicate with us and we truly appreciated it. Thank you Julie for everything!“

“I was very nervous about my dog getting aggressive with the tech since we haven't really done a lot of shots before and he's more on the stranger danger side. But the tech was very calm, slow and did an amazing job with my dog. Held him gently, but firmly and talked nice to him. My dog was very nervous I could see him shaking from across the room and he didn't even growl at him. Didn't get the tech's name, but was very impressed.“
