After a nightmare scenario at sprint hill vet where they vet didn't give two cents about our girls and their health issues that showed up later in life. I did my own research and we ended up here. We love our vet! It helps that I do my own research and we keep a strict schedule for the girls and know any changes in their health. They offer a more holistic approach and also revert to conventional if you think that helps your pets, but if you understand health for humans, real health, you'll find there is similarities for animals and this place helps guide you through it. We are on three more years with our dog who was in the ICU 3 years ago due to negligence of the vet at Spring Hill. They truly care about the animals at Mariposa, they take the time and give details when you ask. They are not authoritative and will listen to concerns. I also love that the animals are not put on a table, the vet goes to their level to ensure they are more comfortable. We are so happy we found this place and appreciate they care about our babies. You do need to make appts in advance, they have a busy schedule

When a vet's office takes a member of your family into the back--whether for a small procedure or a…read moremajor one--you have to trust that the team will treat your pet with care, compassion, and respect. One of the best indicators of how they treat animals is how they treat the humans standing right in front of them. If the staff is rude, condescending, or aggressive, how can anyone feel confident that they'll be gentle and patient with an animal who can't speak up for themselves? I would strongly discourage anyone from bringing their pet to Mariposa. After several visits, we've decided that this clinic is not a good place for our pets. The vet does not inspire confidence in the care they provide, and the front desk staff is consistently unfriendly. Each time we walked in to pick up medications or purchase prescription food, we genuinely felt like a nuisance rather than valued clients. The overall environment is unwelcoming, which is the last thing you want when trusting someone with your furry family members. The quality of care is below average. Appointments rarely run on time, and we've often been asked to wait in the car for extended periods before being brought inside. Once in an exam room, the vet and technicians often appear uncomfortable and unsure, even with basic steps of the exam and treatment process. Unfortunately, our repeated experiences have made it clear that Mariposa is not the right clinic for us--or for our pets.

The doctor gave us a quick diagnosis of conjunctivitis and medication. What gave us more relief was when the doctor asked is what else do I need to know about this guy... listening to our stories and relating to our dog and us. While the condition didn't turn out to be the most complicated for our dog, everyone was patient and thorough. The doctor and all the staff truly care about what they do and it shows! Thank you for the love and care for our dog!

Recently, my dog experienced a pretty significant medical episode and I felt they were less than accommodating. Asking me to wait 2-3 days for check ups/tests/scheduling procedures. Ultimately, we moved our care somewhere else that was able to perform all check ups and tests the first day we saw them. So that made me think what I was asking was not unreasonable. If you're looking for pretty basic care and a monthly plan- this is the place for you. If you're looking for more individualized, responsive, and thorough care- I would look elsewhere.

My cat had a wonderful first visit to this facility and I have nothing but positive things to say…read moreabout my visit. They accommodated a yearly checkup only 2 days before the appointment and every member of the staff - from the reception area, the tech who swabbed his ear, and the vet who looked at his teeth - my cat was really well taken care of. He is a very anxious boy who is very sweet and it's rare that he lets the guard down easily. Despite him clawing at his ears and being difficult when they were trying to swab they were so gentle and empathetic with him. It made me feel really good to see such kind hearted people working in this facility, and on a Saturday no less. The price was very reasonable at $220- I got shots, an ear swab, medication, and 30 minutes to ask questions with the vet about him as he ages and the different options available for cost savings with their plans. Thank you Mary! He was very happy, didn't even hiss when he got his shots which I was shocked by. I had to leave the room but just as soon as I left they grabbed me to come back. He was a trooper. I am so grateful to Animal Medical Center and I will become a loyal client to this location because of my experience today.

Dr. Cram and his new staff member, Dr. Maason, are compassionate, knowledgeable, thorough professionals. Their staff is the same, especially longtime vet tech, Jan. They do follow up via phone and/or email and send newsletters but don't spam email accounts. New visitors to Trailridge will not only be greeted warmly by a friendly face at the reception desk, but a furry one. This is Lilly and she has been at the clinic for as long as I've been going there. She keeps her staff in line and greets all patients. Lilly is fond of spreading out on the reception desk like a hood ornament and swishing her tail over receipts and reports. I have no hesitation in recommending these vets and their hospital.
