Click to report rating    5/22/16   2     2     2     1   We brought 2 of our dogs in over the past 8 years. Both had MINOR health issues we wanted them to check. The 1st dog had dysplasia but they took a biopsy of her lung(!)& punctured it and she died. We were left with a $7,000 vet bill and no dog. Our second dog died 3 weeks ago. We took her in for a urinary infection. They put her on oxygen, sedated her, and her heart stopped. She was only 7 years old. We will never set food in that clinic again, nor will we recommend it to anyone who is looking for quality health care for their pet. RID: 60657
     8/21/12   1     1     1     1   AVOID THIS PLACE! They killed my dog! I think it was from overmedicating. Expensive .. wouldn't use them ever again, and wouldn't recommend them to anyone. One of the vet techs was super nasty to me also. RID: 36707

Click to report rating    10/24/11   1     1     1     1   They are a chop shop they don't care about your pets. The doctors are never there except to just do the surgeries. What can the support staff do if there is an emergency with your pet afterwords, nothing. RID: 28540
Click to report rating    9/17/11   5     5     5     5   Dr. Mack treated my dog during a very stressful time for my family. He was incredibly compassionate and kind. I would recommend this clinic and Dr. Mack to anyone seeking care for their pet. RID: 27660
Click to report rating    2/15/08   5     5     5     5   We had to take our dog in one night for an emergency visit, and let me say, I wish I could have these people treat my pets ALL the time. They are the best vets I have ever been to. The level of care can't get any better than this place. I am also glad to see that they are able to expand their facility. While I hope I don't have to see them for emergency visits again, it's comforting to know that they are available if needed. They are the best and they really do care. RID: 7382
Click to report rating    7/14/07   5     5     5     5   Only used them myself once, for a late night euthanasia of an old dog, but they were absolutely fantastic. I know others who have used them as well, top notch clinic. RID: 5194
Click to report rating    6/28/07   5     5     5     5   Dr. Scherlie (opthamology)is wonderful - he's extremely knowledgeable, helpful, practical, explains things very well and really goes the extra mile for his patients. The specialists are not inexpensive, but most are well worth it. The after-hours emergency clinic is also very good, very reasonably priced and not nearly as busy (or expensive) as Dove Lewis. The emergency vets explain things clearly, have excellent "bedside" manners and give practical advice if warranted (e.g., will tell you if something can wait indefinitely, if an option will be less expensive through your regular vet, if symptoms can be treated with OTC medications (for incurable conditions)).
