There are so many pets it could be 3 times bigger and they would still be busy. It turns out we have to be more attentive when checking what our pets health is doing by checking ,diet and keeping an eye on them, they can't tell us they don't feel good till its bad. She turned out ok thank god. Ive had 5 dogs in the last 70 years but wouldn't trade their love for anything. The amount of emotion these people see and still try their best is more than I could do. I pray for all the pet owners and hope we can get more places like this, and I'm looking into helping with the out side services that can help those who can't afford it. Like me their the biggest part of our lives who love you unconditional.

Even though my dog was near death, (Patel told me) he kept the dog alive knowing this. For two hours he had my dog on a respirator, gave him drugs and other things until he called me with an update. I told the doc to let him go. Why did you let him suffer these past two hours? I ended up with a bill around $800. I think it was money motivated. Maybe they're better now. This was shortly after they opened. What a HORRIBLE experience! After this I checked where Patel worked before. They had similar reviews re: money and service which the pet did not need.

It has taken me a little time to be able to write this review. We recently lost a valuable member…read moreof our family. Duke our rescue of over 13 years ago. We had recently changed our Vet from being out of town, to closer due to all our ages, and wanted to be closer to establish care for our two dogs. After Duke's first Annual Visit, he had his first "Senior Blood Panel" he had high levels of Kidney/Pancreas results. Dr Kramer prescribed digestive dog food, and a supplement of Denamarin for next couple of weeks. Dukie appeared to be fine, with the exception of stool color, texture was loose. x2 weeks later losing weight, and blood test again much higher. Dr. Kramer and her staff, was amazing. Dr. Kramer continued "Process of elimination" of Duke's symptoms and labs. She was always so optimistic! But a momma knows!! right? We together, decided to get an Ultrasound done. Long story short, Duke had Lymphoma, which effected his entire abdomen. The next x2 weeks was Duke's Bucket list as he rapidly declined in health. Dr. Kramer and her Staff taught me how to administer Duke's "Cocktail" (fluids) in case he needed to be hydrated on weekends, let me just come in and check in weight, and given support with my questions. When Duke decided it was his time, I called, and they prepared for his Day. Specialized parking, sign out front, couches, pillows, music, treats and a little more TIME. So beautiful and comforting. Private entrance. A wonderful paw print, and cremation container to bring our Big Boy home. Dr Kramer and her Staff, supported all my decisions, with her professionalism, care & empathy. They sent us a Sympathy card a week later, and also planted a Tree in honor of our Sweet Big boy! It honestly, doesn't get any better than this!! I can't thank them enough, or be more grateful. Love, Duke's Family

In this last experience at making a routine appointment, I spoke with a technician on the phone who was condescending, argumentative, and would not listen to me on what my cat needed. She dug her heels in. Then the vet (whom I did not speak to myself) called and left a message explaining the rationale of the THEIR decision on what my cat needed without involving me in that process. I cannot trust anyone with my animals who won't listen to me. Unfortunately I won't be returning. I spoke with some friends feeling frustrated and three of them said "I would never take my pets to Dogwood". I've since moved to a different local vet and so far, had a very good experience from scheduling to interacting with all the techs and vets!

Marilyn has not used her paw since this visit and I assume that something was dislodged during palpation. I found Dr. Boonstra to be rough with my fragile, 4.5 lb little cat lady, not competent and unwilling to provide rationales for expensive procedures. And all of this after a 50 minute wait! The medical director, Dr. Sanderson, has refused to even acknowledge that Dr. Boonstra could have harmed Marilyn, let alone offer remedial action. There is no professional accountability in this clinic and even Marilyn's medical records were inaccurate. I am heartbroken and deeply upset that a visit intended to help a fragile, elderly cat instead resulted in further injury and suffering. Marilyn spent nearly two decades surviving outdoors before I rescued her; she deserved gentleness, caution, and thoughtful care in her final years.
