Excellent Care and Compassion
Personalized Attention
Several reviewers praised the clinic for catering to their pets' special needs. Flash, a shy dog, was given individual attention, and the vet ensured that she saw the same vet only. Similarly, a mini Dachshound named Clyde received the best care, and the staff even helped a rat that was suffering.
Professional Service
Many reviewers commended the clinic for its highly professional service. Dr. Paul provided realistic advice, and the staff were non-judgmental and excellent. The clinic's ownership by the working vets was seen as a plus, indicating that they genuinely care about their patients.
Availability and Convenience
Reviewers appreciated the clinic's ability to fit in appointments, even for those who travel from afar. Some clients travel 30 minutes to reach the clinic, demonstrating their trust and satisfaction with the service.
Minor Issues with Roster
One reviewer mentioned that the rotation of vets and staff can make it difficult to get to know a regular practitioner. However, they acknowledged that all staff members are dedicated and caring.
A Disappointing Experience
One reviewer had an unfortunate experience where they felt the clinic recommended euthanasia without exploring alternative treatment options. They sought a second opinion, which led to a successful treatment and full recovery of their cat. This reviewer felt that the clinic did not demonstrate a commitment to animal welfare.
