    I was very impressed with Westgate Animal Hospital.We had an emergency with our Dog and they were upfront and honest about the charges, before treating our dog. They did great with animals and gave my dog the care she needed, (no extras). They didn’t just charge me for everything they could have. Doctor Waila has been practicing for a Long time and is very knowledgeable and good with animals. I would go back in a heartbeat and am so glad I found their office!

They also know Duke by name when we walk in and always gush over him, which makes us feel so valued and cared for. On top of...read full review
