Dr Jones and Dr Rudd were both so kind and helpful, this week. They explained everything and patiently answered my questions, as always. Kitty is feeling much better and Oliver might have super powers. Roo looks forward to his check up in October!
I also really appreciate Marilyn, who has spoken with me on the phone more than once and was so kind and reassuring in a moment of panic. If these amazing women could be my personal medical team, too, I’d be stoked- and spayed! 😜
Thank you Aztec! 🩷

Dr. Maggie Jones is one of the best, most thorough vets I've interacted with. Just moved to ABQ and my 8 yr old retired working shepherd needed a new vet. I was super impressed with Dr Jones - she has great people (and animal) skills and gave my dog the most thorough first vet visit assessment I've seen.
