    We love Dr Valadez and the rest of the staff at all of the Gentle Doctor locations. We had a tough decision and they were very caring and supportive throughout the process. I’ve been going there for many years and with multiple Dogs. Highly recommend if you are looking for a great Vet.

    Was able to get my cat in quickly (got in a scuffle), friendly staff, clean office, short wait time, vet tech was knowledgeable and helpful in showing how to administer medications, and Dr Thomassen is great with animals! You can tell they all care.

    I love the care that our Shelby cat receives here. I am so thankful for the staff. They really are gentle with our spicy guy. With our veterinary team’s advice and support we have helped Shelby get down to almost his target weight and out of the risk of diabetes! What an amazing accomplishment!
