Dr. Bajwa saved my rescue cat's life--his incredibly skilled medical care and surgical work were both comprehensive and compassionate (and very successful). He even gave me his phone number and returned my texts promptly (sometimes within minutes) during my cat's home recovery. The front desk people are professional, friendly and caring, too--this practice is definitely a well-run team effort and it shows. Even the parking is great. Highly, highly recommended.

Despite my husband and I being very diligent with our pups' dental health, my baby boy had so many issues with his teeth that probably went undetected during previous Anesthetic Dental cleanings at a regular Veterinary practice. He took excellent care of both of my babies and acted in their best interest. Not only that, but he took the time to discuss next steps with me and my husband during the procedure. We were a bit of a wreck and unable to make a quick decision, but he answered all of our questions, was patient and reassuring. All the staff was so wonderful too! Incredibly professional, caring and compassionate. This practice has the highest standards. Thank you, Dr. Furman, the world needs more people like you!

She was working at VCA at that time and we followed her every time she moved practices. Dr. Durtschi and her team provided excellent care with medication management over the several years. She also helped us get Seven to Japan to receive mitral valve repair surgery, which is not available in the US. The surgery was successful and Seven lived until age 16. When he was getting sick with non-heart related issues, Dr. Durtschi was always available and came to see him at the hospital where he was staying to make sure his heart was okay. I don't know any other specialists who provide this much care and support. We are forever grateful for everything that Dr. Durtschi and her team provided for our Seven!

Nolan is a little senior pups and Dr. Woods has been taking care of him for over 3 years now.

Dr. Woods is thorough and leaves no stone unturned when approaching Nolan's care and treatment. I appreciate the time he takes to patiently talk through all our concerns and questions, making sure we feel confident in every decision with make with him. Every pet deserves a vet like Dr. Woods - you can trust they will get the best care. Thank you, Dr. Woods, Monique, Hannah, Julie and the whole team at Integrative Veterinary Health Center!!

Fast forward to a month ago I found QPD and their services and immediately booked an appointment. The biggest pro for me is that they don't put him under and the price is incredible vs our own vet. It was so easy to book an appointment and I just showed up at my local pet store. He was in and out in 20 minutes and they didn't try to push any products on me. They educated me about a lot of services in case I wanted to do it in the future. Not to mention the girls working were so kind. Thank you QPD!

Scam Alert This…read moreplace will charge you whether or not they perform any actual service. We've taken our dog, Cooper, to Bark Bark every six months because they have a mobile unit from Qualified Pet Dental and it's been convenient. This visit, however, was an absolute mess and felt like a cash grab disguised as concern. They spent maybe five minutes with our dog before calling us in a tone that sounded like an emergency -- the kind of call that makes you think your dog is seriously injured or dying. We were told Cooper's lower front teeth were all loose and "about to fall out," that there was something wrong with his gums, and that he was in tremendous pain, so they couldn't proceed with the cleaning. Naturally, I rushed down there in a panic. When I arrived, it became clear that: * These were the same loose teeth they identified SIX MONTHS AGO * There is a tiny gingivitis bump behind his front teeth * Cooper was not in pain, not distressed, and not showing any signs of discomfort They admitted they could have cleaned the rest of his teeth, but chose not to because they were "concerned" it might somehow make things worse. Instead, they charged us nearly $60 for a five-minute "assessment" and sent us on our way -- no cleaning performed. Let's be clear: * A full cleaning is nearly $250 for 30 minutes * If they decide -- for any reason -- not to perform the service, you still pay * Their response when I objected? "You signed something." So yes, we paid. But it felt coercive and completely unethical. The worst part is the manufactured panic. They had us thinking we needed to rush Cooper to a vet immediately. When we got home? He was happy, wagging his tail, playful, and totally unfazed. I could touch his teeth with zero reaction. No pain. No distress. To be fair, they did identify a small gum issue that we'll follow up on with a real veterinarian -- and for that, fine. But refusing to perform the service while still charging, after scaring owners into thinking something is urgently wrong, is unacceptable. Bottom line: If your dog is slightly fussy, if they're "not in the mood," or if the tech decides not to proceed, you're still paying -- regardless of whether your dog receives any actual care. This feels less like dental care and more like a business model built on fear and fine print. Pet owners deserve better. Updated with response from the business: This is Rebecca with Qualified Pet Dental. I wanted to reach out regarding Cooper's dental cleaning. I'm sorry we were unable to complete the procedure today. During our assessment, we noted that several of Cooper's teeth have become more recessed and loose, and there is a gingival tag that should be addressed with your primary veterinarian under anesthesia. While this condition does need attention from your primary vet, it is not classified as a dental emergency. We did inform you shortly after assessing Cooper's condition; he was in our van for approximately 20 minutes before Ashlee called you directly to discuss the dental concerns, and at no point did anyone say this was an emergency. I understand you would like us to clean the rest of his teeth, but our primary responsibility is to ensure Cooper's safety and well-being. We adhere to ethical practices, and we cannot proceed with any treatment that could harm him. Our recommendation for yearly anesthesia and dental X-rays is based on maintaining healthy teeth and preventing further issues. All of this information is detailed in the consent form you signed, which includes your initials and signature. We pride ourselves on being transparent about what we can and cannot do, along with our associated fees. Cooper's loss teeth has been a concern for over a year, and we've documented this in previous visits. The fee of $53 covers a veterinarian exam and oral assessment, which is significantly lower than what most primary veterinarians charge for a basic physical exam. Additionally, due to the false allegations made in your review, we will be responding to address these concerns and may seek a response from our corporate attorney. We appreciate your understanding and value your opinions, but our priority is always the health of the pets in our care. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out.
