Never going back. I have never been treated or talked to the way the owner of this place did…read moretoday. I took my cat in for an abscess. I just moved to the town a little over a week and haven't unpacked all my belongings yet in order to bring in the records for my cat. He was up to date on his rabies shot but I needed vetco to verify it with them. The vet came out and told me they were still on hold and I replied I would try to access the records online. Not even 2 minutes passed that I found the rabies certificate and called the front desk to let them know I had it and they could hang up. She said "ok, thanks we will be right out." The vet came out and said she already gave him the rabies shot(without my consent) and was still charging me for it. I paid the $157 Bill for "laser therapy" 2 antibiotics, office visit and rabies charge and left. Upon talking to another friend that had a similar experience I called in to talk to the owner(because giving immunizations without the owners consent with multiple individuals is a problem in my opinion and needs to be handled.) she replied in a snippety tone, "well people lie all the time and it's against the law for us to treat/release an animal without proof of rabies vaccinations...we also don't have time to wait around for 3 hours while people sit in their cars in the parking lot...but since I'm feeling EXTRA generous today, I'll refund the rabies shot." I told her that I'm not the type of person that lies, especially about things of that nature, and I found the records in less than 3 minutes, not 3 hours. I made the example that if you go in for an oil change and they charge you for new tires that were needed without your consent, you'd be irritated too. She didn't get it. I was refunded the 20$, but unfortunately the owner's stick Wasn't dislodged.

Awesome customer service, the office team along with the entire setting is beautiful, all that's missing is a pond with benches & picnic areas and shaded walking paths!! They did an outstanding job in spaying my kitty, Princess. All done at a very fair country price, no up selling. My kitty was not stressed in one bit and seems recovered in less than 24hrs. I encourage anyone to give them just one opportunity to impress you too as they've impressed us!

Just wish that the vet. spoke to us post surgery.
