What Reviews Say
280 reviews analyzedThis veterinary clinic enjoys exceptional loyalty with nearly all reviews being 5-star ratings. Customers consistently praise the compassionate, knowledgeable staff (particularly Dr. Johnson, Dr. Fuentes, and Dr. Bruno) and the in-house groomer Dena. Many clients have been coming for 20-30+ years. However, a small subset of reviews (about 5%) raise concerns about pricing transparency, occasional staff rudeness, and isolated incidents involving boarding/grooming quality or misdiagnosis. The owner responds professionally to nearly all reviews, including negative ones, demonstrating active engagement. The facility excels in bedside manner and medical care but could improve on pricing communication and consistency in ancillary services like boarding.

Worth noting
Misdiagnosis leading to pet death
โThis place was great when doctor Bruno and Reinhold worked here- different since. My dog started acting lethargic- took him in again to be told this time that he had a 15 inch tumor in his stomach. My dog passed two days later.โ
Perceived price gouging/money-focused care
โThe cost to cure her was $1100... The Doctor was not so kind. She make feel like she don't care about my pet.โ
Boarding/grooming neglect causing pet trauma
โMy beautiful Maltese dog was one giant matted here. She had more matt then than when she was rescued. She was traumatized.โ
Staff rudeness during difficult times
โWe just recently had to put our dog down which the staff was very kind except for one of their receptionist Lindsey. She is very rude and shouldn't be working front desk with that kind of attitude especially when we were asking a question.โ
Pricing concerns and unexpected fees(8 mentions)
โThe cost to cure her was $1100... it seems too much to me.โ
Staff rudeness or unprofessional behavior(5 mentions)

โDO NOT take your dog there for grooming or boarding. If you love your dog, don't let what happen to my dog happen to yours.โ
Communication delays or oversights(3 mentions)
โAfter two weeks of receiving no word, I decided to call myself and was told that it was all ready but they could not give me an answer as to why I never received a call from them.โ
