Love Dr. Silvers and the other doctors. The front desk could really use some attitude adjustments. More worried about discussing her day off tomorrow and giving me dirty looks. But Dr. Holmes was great!

I love Dr. Silver and the other vets. The office staff are terrible in my mind. I walk in and don't even get acknowledged for 10 minutes. Rather rude too. But the vets more than make up for this.

This place is not a bad choice But considering they do not allow you to split up payments is very frustrating. Not everyone has $700 to pay upfront and they should really allow people to pay over time. Care credit is an option but i do not want another credit card just so I can pay my pets bills. I also was told a bigger amount of money to pay once I arrived at the clinic. This place is WAY too expensive, be ready to pay! It's ridiculous.

Dr tried to convince us that our dog had cancer and we should get blood work done ($200) a biopsy (who knows how much) and also put him on a serotonin blocker to stop licking his body paws. We paid for none of it and left, and I then googled natural remedies and guess what?! It's already healing. Will NEVER go back here. All they want is your money, and they don't care what they do to your dog to get it
