    We followed Dr. Harper over here from his previous office. This is a great veterinary hospital and our husky mix just loves to come here.

    Her favorite spot nestled under my 10 year old. His best friend.

    Honey (7 month old rabbit) did not survive her spay procedure yesterday. Dr. Harvey told me she suffered an adverse reaction to the anesthesia and stopped breathing. He said they tried their best to help her. I'm sure they tried to do what they could. That being said, I wish I never went ahead with the spay procedure. I thought I was giving her a better, healthier, and longer life. But I was wrong. Our family is completely heartbroken. My sons are devastated. We lost our baby. My kids wanted me to share our experience to urge others to do more research and ask more questions. To be more prepared. Pictured below is our sweet baby. May she rest in peace.

    Dr. Harper is always super thorough with handling all my pets. Ive had my birds and dogs come to him when they needed a simple wellness check or anything serious. I appreciate the love he has for all animals. Thanks for always giving Pepe, Chico and Bambi all the love! The Nunez fam.

    I visited this hospital last year and this year for my rabbits. The doctors and nurses are always good. However, the front desk lady, a 1 star. This 1 star is to her and not the hospital and not the doctors and not the nurses. I brought my 2 rabbits to have an annual exam and the hospital offered a cleaning service which I accepted. Total for 2 rabbits exam and sanitary fees are $341.62. During the cleaning, one of my rabbits got a wound due to fur pulled off the skin on scrotum. The doctor and nurse came over to talk to me and told me about the medicine and procedure and I could feel their sincerity. Honestly, I clean my rabbit before but thinking about if it goes thru the hospital and may be better but getting wound is totally unexpected. When the time I checked out, we first scheduled the next visit for my rabbit. Then, the front desk lady went over the with additional the medicine and antibiotic cost $75.37. My rabbit already suffered the pain and I asked nicely to the front desk whether it can be a discount for the medicine because I don't expect that cost for the medicine. Do you know what she said. She raised her voice and said "What?" "Are you kidding me? You thought we hurt your rabbit? Who said that we guarantee your pet will not be hurt during cleaning?" I said "Yes, I don't know how you guys clean. Your people cleaned my rabbit and hurted him." The front desk lady has cold hear and made me very sad and almost cry due to her cruelty. Then, she said did I want to talk to the doctor or to her further. With that kind of person, who wants to talk to you. I said "No". I just want to pay the bill and said if I know it will have a chance for you guys to clean my rabbit, I would not take that service. Then, she said ok, I will cancel your future appointment. She didn't advice me and just cancel my appointment. She has a bigger right than every one in the hospital. I wish the owner able to read this message. With that kind of attitude, who wants to deal with you (front desk lady). However, she covered her unprofessional manner, she wrote the below message in my report. What a big liar.

    Took my little piggie peanut here a couple of weeks ago for a wellness checkup & the techs Veterinarian were all amazing & let me not forget the receptionist. They did great with clipping his nails & handled him very well, and answered all my questions. Glad we found a set vet to go to & will be coming back to take our other piggy Butter for his wellness check up too in a couple of weeks.

    What an amazing experience. Night and day difference from my previous Vet and I'm looking forward to being a forever customer. Customer Service here is TOP NOTCH -- Everyone is very friendly. Even the team members that aren't working directly with you. We were greeted by literally everyone, felt like a long time customer, and was ensured every step of the way through every nook and cranny. My puppy just turned 3 months and so I'm still learning what works best for him and I. And this establishment did not force any vaccines or treatments onto him. VERY refreshing. Doctor Harper is not only professional, but sociable and witty. Unlike the few Vets I've been to, his natural relatability and being able to make recommendations on his own experiences was what sold me. I initially turned down the lepto vaccine but after Doctor Harper's explanation, it made sense. My parents live near a creek and always complain of "big dogs" climbing into their trash can and the "stink animal" crawling through their yard (they don't have them in Vietnam). Since I visit fairly often, my hypochondriac self could never be too sure. Everything was done in a timely manner, not a long wait, and was setting up my next appointment before I knew it. The entire experience was smooth and it clearly shows that they really want what's best for us and our animal children. Thank you Doctor Harper and your team.

Finding a good vet that is at a privately owned hospital has been a challenge and after reading their website and hearing good things from a couple of colleagues, I drove over an hour each way for appointments with each of my dogs.

He went out of his way to review some information and photos I emailed after the appointment and we decided on what to try. I was really thrilled with my experience with this vet at this practice with both of my dogs, and despite the drive will definitely be coming back for future needs.

My last experience with them…read moreleft me with an extremely bad taste in my mouth, so much so that I swore I'd never go back to them. However, my big boy Chomper is 12+, and last January I noticed he was really struggling to do normal things. I changed his routine and started hand-making his food, and he instantly got better. But having had another dog who was the same mixed breed and who showed the same signs towards the end of life, I knew Chomper's time was limited. Then last week he had a bad morning, and seeing he was in pain, I relented and called Groveway hoping that they'd just prescribe him some medication for pain management. I was able to bring him in that same day, and of course the first thing he does is urinate all over their waiting room floor like he had never whizzed in his life (and I JUST let him relieve himself outside beforehand). I apologized and offered to clean it up, but the receiption staff and another staff member quickly began to clean it up without hesitation and reassured me that it was ok. We entered into the examination room, and from the very beginning vet tech Stella was kind, polite and asked poignant quesitons. Soon after Dr. Powell came in, and she was equally kind, polite and wanting to help my boy. Dr. Powell was wonderful - she was compassionate and at the same time willing to have the difficult conversations. We decided on bloodwork that would take about 30 mins or so. Needing a urine sample, Stella escorted us outside to the back area with room to roam and a bench to sit at. After getting the sample, Stella made every effort to make sure my boy was comfortable - she invited us to stay in the backyard to enjoy the fresh air and sun, she brought out a blanket for Chompet to lie on, and she brought both of us water as well. Needless to say, after my last experience with Groveway, I was hesitant to contact them thinking that they might somehow try to hustle me again. I am so glad that I called them. The staff there were nothing but professional and courteous. Stella was accommodating and loved on my boy like he was her own dog. And Dr. Powell's compassion and willingness to help was nothing short of amazing. We didn't get the results we wanted, and that's just part of a dog getting old. But we have another checkup scheduled in a month, and I'm looking forward to the staff at Groveway spoling my Chomper again.

After looking extensively at reviews, I ended up getting an appointment here with Dr. Alyssa Ma! We were coming in with concerns for some bumps and a mass on my dog's eye. My sister and I are always pretty careful when it comes to coming to the vet because my dog is extremely reactive to other animals, which makes it hard for us to go to areas with other animals. The front desk staff and vet techs are incredibly kind and accommodating with our request to hide other animals when our dog comes in or go in through the side or back. Our first visit went really well and with my previous experience at our previous vet, I was expecting the bill to be extremely costly.... Dr. Ma did the consultation (i believe it was $80), tested 6 bumps and cut his nails and it was around ~$300 total. We actually came in wanting to test 5 but she saw another one while taking a look at the others and tested that as well. I was expecting to be charged for each bump they test, but surprisingly it was all just under one cost. She told us the results right away. For the mass on my dogs eye, she recommended a few options, and we went with the surgical route. She gave me an estimate of each item/test/medication/procedure to be done to my dog and I was able to pick what I wanted and the cost would update based on that. Everything from pricing, procedures, etc were transparent and reasonable. We were also able to schedule his surgery pretty soon after that initial consultation! When we picked my dog up from surgery, I was expecting him to be on the cone, but he came out without it and they told us he was really good so they didn't put the cone on for now. At home, he recovered well without using the cone! :D We had another visit recently because my dog got in a tussle with a skunk and got all scratched up on his face!!! We called a ton of emergency vets and they were either too far or couldn't take him. I called Eden at around 8:30 am on a Friday and even though they were booked for the day, they got me on a waitlist and called me at around 2:00 pm to let me know they had a cancellation and that they would be able to take us at 4:00 pm. Honestly, just amazing customer service from the team at Eden. They are incredibly efficient and understanding. The pricing is very reasonable and they are very transparent.
