My English Cream Golden Retriever, who is now a healthy, 1 1/2 yr old female, (approx 65 lbs)…read moreneeded to be spayed. I was nervous to get it done but realized it was necessary for her future health. I used to bring my Cats here for care but they have since passed on. I decided to bring my Katie here for her spay surgery. This was her first visit here. I arrived around 8:30am to drop off Katie on her surgery day. The gal at the front desk on Aug 28th greeted me with kindness and that relieved me. The Vet tech who came out to the lobby was also friendly and greeted my dog with a compliment and lots of welcome strokes across her head and upper body. I could tell she loved dogs and Katie was not nervous to go in back with her to start the procedure. Last time I was here, Dr. McCullough worked here. She has since passed so they advised me that Dr. Lynn Muller (from ACT Spay & Neuter, Stockton) was helping them out for surgeries. I did not get a chance to meet her, however, I hear good things about ACT so I went by that. I picked up Katie around 4:30pm that same day. She came out to the lobby to greet me like nothing had happened. She looked good. Not drugged out or nervously excited to get the heck out of there! What a relief! My fur baby was fine! Hallelujah! Ashley even helped me get Katie into the back of my SUV. They gave me a pain med pill to take home with me and advised that she take it easy (no jumping). The price was great also! Less than $300! Katie is doing great. The small incision healed well on her belly after a week. No oozing or irritation. They use surgical glue so you don't have to return to remove sutures. She can't wait to start her long dog walks soon. Based on my experience, I recommend Cherokee Vet and Dr. Muller for spaying your fur baby. Thank you Dr. Muller and staff!

My first visit here was great!…read more The staff were very friendly which kept my dog comfortable. The thing I appreciated the most is they didn't try to provide unnecessary extra services to increase the cost of our visit. I've taken my dog to other fancy places (I won't name them here) that are in the business of selling nonsense. They provided exactly what I intended for him to receive when I made the appointment. We will return next month for a dental cleaning which I found was also outrageously overpriced at the other veterinarian's.

We came in at 4:30 pm and were told we would not be seen for at least another 45 minutes, despite the fact we had an appointment. Parking is terrible and we had to park at Walgreens. We only needed a simple Rabies vaccination. We could not wait another 45 minutes ( at least) so we rescheduled the appointment. On Tuesday 7/8/25 , we had another appointment set for 5 pm for a simple rabies vaccine. We arrived before 5 pm, checked in and were told once again it would be another 45 minutes despite the fact that we had an appointment. Their excuse for two weeks in a row was "emergencies". Something is wrong with their appointment system and needs to be analyzed and fixed. We could not wait another 45 minutes and neither could others who said they had been waiting a long time and could wait no longer. We had to walk out because we nor others could not wait any longer. Unfortunately we will be changing Vets to someone who can manage their appointments better.

But the receptionist staff is pretty rude and lacks any customer service mannerisms. Especially the older lady who's been there for years. Everytime I've gone in, I've patiently waited for others before me to be helped first. She always sees me walk in and never acknowledges me or says hi or even a "Be with you in one moment." Which can be confusing because then you don't know if they're working to finish something on the computer first or they really didn't see you walk in. They usually just ignore you until they have a minute to help you. I literally hate having to wait to check in my dog because of them but I like Dr. Chahal.

The vet looked at them momentarily and said it was probably a truth and you have to come back on another day to be to be put under and have x-rays taken in then they would be able to decide if it needed to be a tooth pulled or what it would be. I said OK they gave me an estimate thought about it for a few days after the medication. They gave me that day. He seemed to be a little bit better, but I still made an appointment to take him back for x-rays.. Finally got an appointment which they canceled because there was no vet available that day for some reason, Made another appointment which the vet was not available that day, Tried one more time they made an appointment said they had a vet coming. I I asked you it was they said it was a lady at within 30 years of experience so I made the appointment. Took Auri in at 9:30 for the procedure they called me around four said he was ready to get picked up Went and picked him up and sat in the waiting room for 15 or 20 minutes and nobody acknowledge me Finally, I got up and said what's going on what did you have to do to Auri? Did you pull his tooth? Their answer was we put him under and took x-rays, but the vet didn't know how to read the x-rays. It wasn't qualified to do the extraction! I said you guys gave me an estimate on putting him under so you could do x-rays and take care of the problem all at one time but you had somebody here that couldn't read x-rays and you still put my dog under and I didn't understand Then they wanted to charge me $500 Needless to say, I was not happy. They said they would call me the next day five days later they call me and said I need to bring them back for more x-rays because those weren't good enough and put them down again Needless to say, I will not be back there again. I'm not sure there was even a vet there when they did the first procedure. New vet ever came out and talk to me.! I just can't imagine why that you were scheduled a procedure without having a vet there they could solve the issue when he was down

I didn't catch all of the staff's name, but Heather and Dr. Case were very professional, compassionate and reassuring. My dog was examined, given bloodwork, and a pancreatitis test all on site and was able to get a diagnosis quickly. They gave us inpatient and outpatient options for the treatment of our dog. Overall costly, but generally fairly priced considering it's an emergency vet. I also want to note, the staff had to put down an animal for a family. Dr case and the assistant were very professional and compassionate during and after the whole ordeal. They helped us afterward and didn't skip a beat. We thought we were going to potentially lose our boy that night, and very well could have, had it not been for this establishment. Worth every penny. Thank you guys!

I am writing to formally express my deep dissatisfaction with the care my family and I received…read moreduring one of the most difficult moments we've ever experienced--having to say goodbye to our beloved cat, Chloe. We brought our 16 year old Chloe in after she had been diagnosed with a blood clot in her right back leg, and we made the heartbreaking decision to have her euthanized to prevent further suffering. We expected compassion, gentleness, and basic empathy during this process. Unfortunately, what we experienced was the complete opposite. The veterinarian, Dr. Wishner who attended to Chloe showed no compassion or sensitivity. His handling of her was rough and lacked the care and dignity that any animal--especially one in her final moments--deserves. It was incredibly upsetting to witness, and it added unnecessary trauma to an already devastating situation. However, I do want to acknowledge that the veterinary technician, Brie, was very kind and caring. Her compassion did not go unnoticed, and we truly appreciated her support during such a difficult time. This experience overall was not just disappointing--it was unacceptable. No pet owner should have to endure such a cold and careless experience when saying goodbye to a cherished member of their family. Because of this experience, I would never recommend this veterinarian to anyone. I hope this complaint is taken seriously so that no other family has to go through what we did. Sincerely, Christina & Michelle Olivas

They've been incredibly accommodating by letting us use the back door whenever he is extremely anxious, which has made such a big difference in keeping his stress levels low. The staff is patient, kind, and very knowledgeable. Draco settles down much faster here than anywhere else I have gone before, which says everything about how well they handle nervous dogs. Every visit is smooth, organized, and never feels rushed. They are very upfront and honest they are about pricing, just clear communication and genuine care. You can tell they truly love what they do.  I 100% recommend them to anyone looking for compassionate, professional, and trustworthy veterinary care.
