We live 1 hour away. We built a house east of Blue Springs, but I continue to make that drive to be with a team that cares! Pricing is right in line with animal science and you can always choose what you approve. We boarded our kitties there while out of town for a major trip, the outgoing cat was able to go "work" in the back room and he loved it. The skittish cat had no signs of being upset for being left a week. That says a lot in my eyes. One particular aspect of this office... they will not immediately steer you to expensive diagnostics. If your baby might have an inflamed intestinal condition, they will just help correct the diet and treat the symptoms as needed. Other businesses are quick to do intestinal biopsy and ultrasounds. Sure that might be your choice to do, but I like how practical the team is. My kitty with the intestinal issue lived to be 20 years old, and he was supported through old age with fluids, and b-12 shots as needed. Those last years could have cost me thousands of dollars, but we got the standard of care that he would receive anyway. Our rescue skittish kitty had stomatitis 4 years ago. The remedy is removal of the molars. The staff quoted us $1200 as standard estimate. We paid it and came to pick her up the next day. The staff corrected our bill and refunded us $400 because the surgery did not take as long as expected and since she was young, the removal was not complicated. They saved her life! Not only by knowing how to treat her, but they offered an option to euthanasia. Kitty is still sassy and happy today. When we got our new puppy, Dr. H was my first stop on the way home! The cuddles and loves for new babies are so genuine! Dr.H took the time to educate me, the cat mom, on how to raise my puppy. I'm so grateful!

This would a charge on top of any exam or grooming fee. With a 3 week lead time, I would hate to have a pet that needed urgent care. They probably won't try to work you in, even though you're an established patient. Yes, there may be 24/7 vet facilities but when you have an established relationship with a vet who knows your pets, that's where you want to go first.

Additionally, I've taken 4 levels of training classes with my personal animal and learned so much! I would highly recommend Westwood's obedience and socialization classes for all animals. Thank you, Dr. Hunthausen, for everything you've done for our community. I greatly appreciate you and your staff!

I don't make it easy for a vet. I am knowledgeable and opinionated about pet care…read more The staff at FMA managed my dog's recent dental work despite challenges inherent with a geriatric patient and an overbearing owner. The staff was patient with me on the day of the surgery, kept me informed and moved my dog through the process efficiently. She survived the anesthesia, cleaning and extractions and should enjoy a few more years of life with clean breath and no pain. Dental work is expensive because it is time consuming and requires surgical skill to close wounds at extraction sites. The work done on my dog was necessary and reasonably priced. It is a wonderful office with friendly techs and knowledgable doctors. I would rate it SIX STARS.

I first brought Charlie in shortly after moving to the area, and during that first visit we got difficult news about a mass. Dr. Wilson handled that moment with so much compassion and honesty, which meant a lot. From then on, I brought Charlie in regularly, and I always felt like we were in good hands. Dr. Wilson was patient, thoughtful, and took the time to explain everything clearly. When it came time to say goodbye, she made a very hard experience as peaceful as it could be. Her kindness and empathy really stood out. I truly appreciate the whole team and would absolutely trust them again with a future pet.

Now, I don't know if you have ever tried to wrestle a 23lb wet ball of fur with sharp claws, but is not fun. I will gladly pay anyone who will do this for me. Enter the team at Petworks. The entire staff from the front desk team to Dr. Callicott are all simply wonderful. They adore Merit (or at least acknowledge that he should be held in the highest regard) and he doesn't mind going for his spa days. I have to give a shout out to Amanda, the lead groomer. She is truly one of a kind in the cat grooming industry around Johnson County. You can take my word for this as I've called almost every groomer in the county and there are less than 5 groomers who accept furkids of the feline variety. I had planned on just going down the list until we found a good fit, but we never made it past the first one because she takes such great care of Merit. I totally recommend this for grooming and for pet care. I've never boarded there but I have witnessed other boarding situations along the daycare and can verify they have epic pet sitting skills. I am also confident in this enough to leave Merit there during the day after his grooming sessions. Don't miss this; don't listen to me, just look at judgy mcjudge here. Believe this face!

He explained what would happen every step of the way. Comfort, compassion, kindness, respect for Lily's journey as well as mine - those are the words that immediately come to mind.

Our pup would get very anxious around other dogs, and we liked the idea of her being the only dog "in the office", and had heard good things about Dr. Kovac. His ability to calm and gain trust with animals before and while "doing his work" sets him apart from other vets, and is his absolute priority. Witnessing his approach upon our first visit with him, made me regret not finding him sooner. He cares deeply about the health and comfort of his patients and their humans. After a short battle with bone cancer, we recently realized it was time to let our dog go. I had been staying in touch with Dr Kovac since her initial diagnosis for guidance and reassurance, and made the call for the final appointment. He gave me the information I needed to be certain that I was making the right decision and graciously took the time to make a plan to help my daughter (who has some disabilities, and was best friends with our pup) understand, accept, and actively participate in the decision with the family. Our dog passed peacefully and with dignity in her favorite spot, in the sunshine, with her people close. It is difficult to articulate our gratitude for Dr. Kovac after this experience. But I can say that that I have never met a more gracious, kind, skilled, experienced, and compassionate vet. When we're ready to bring a new dog into our family, we know who our vet will be. Thank you, Dr. Kovac.

Not a friendly place that would make me want to adopt an animal. I do feel bad for the animals there.
