I so appreciated how Dr. Roberts and her staff helped her pass. There was no rush or hurry. They left me and Little Miss in the exam room by ourselves for quite a while. I so appreciated having that last time alone with her. Dr Roberts and her assistant came in and carefully examined Little Miss to make sure putting her to sleep was the right decision. The first shot was to make her drowsy and the second put her to sleep, very humane. They helped me wrap her up and out the door I went to bury her. The kindness and consideration of Dr Roberts and her staff made a very difficult day a little easier. The amount they charged for their service was very reasonable. Jack P

Our normal vet quoted us $1,100 - 1,500 for the procedure (looks like a simple snip) so that was a definite no-go. Dr. Spencer took a look at it and within minutes said it was not a problem at all and could be done with ease. The entire team of ladies were so kind and obviously love animals. My pup is super friendly and they spoiled him with treats during the consult. The front desk lady was so accommodating and found a window to fit my pup into the schedule for the mini surgery the same week?! The procedure was no muss, no fuss (took less than 15 minutes) and it costs a fraction of what our normal vet was going to charge. No hidden fees, no "fee for processing the fee" here. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND bringing your animal here; it's worth the trek. Dr. Spencer has seen it all and has expert knowledge that put me at ease. I could not be more pleased with the results!!

Something I've noticed, It gets harder, and harder saying goodbye. My wife and I have been crying since 3pm, it's 8pm now, no dinner, no nothing, just tears. Knowing we'll never see our sweet "Luke" in this life again, is gut wrenching. He was something special, I know all pet owners say something similar. But, in fact he was very special. He had more facial expressions than any of my other 4 legged besties. He and I would have conversations and in his own special way we'd communicate. He'd wake me up every morning, at the same time every day, with his cold nose on my back or arm. Who's going to do that, now that he's gone. Anyway Art Spencer was very kind, patient and understanding as was Barbara and the other young lady (who's name escapes me). They were all very kind and understanding in our time of grief.

We have couch coonhounds and all our coonies go there for their care! Dr Harmony is VERY KNOWLEDGABLE and caught bladder cancer in its early stages in my Plott Barry, we had it removed and he is now cancer free! My Blood hound had chronic ear infections for 2 years and Harmony is the ONLY vet of 3 she had seen that could get it under control with special diet, and custom blend ear drops ( she is sooo much happier now!) Lastly our little Plott Lucy goes there too and loves them all! From emergency services to the hard to diagnose issues, to everyday health care and specialty care Ponderosa Vet Clinic is the BEST! If your pet needs care beyond the scope of their services Doc Harmony will do research and recommend a few options for your pets BEST CARE!

We go out of our way to come here and that alone says everything…read more This is a true country vet experience in the best way: calm, personal, and actually focused on your animal. No chaos, no packed waiting room, no rushed appointments where you feel like you're on a conveyor belt. It's a husband-and-wife team, and you can feel that difference immediately. There's a level of care and attention that's hard to find, especially since we mainly reside in the Bay Area. They only schedule about two weeks out, which, at first, completely threw me and I was pissed by the inconvenience. I was used to booking way in advance and felt mildly panicked about it. But now I get it. That boundary is exactly what allows them to stay present, not overbook, and give each patient the time they deserve. The space is clean, easy to access, plenty of parking and best of all, it's not crowded. No line of stressed-out dogs and overwhelmed humans. We intentionally plan our dogs' vaccines and routine care around being in the area so we can come here. That's how worth it it is.
