He is practical, forthright, respectful, and honest- all things I value and appreciate. I've never had a bad experience here with the vet or any staff. Even when I was a very young person brining barns cats in to vetted, there was always professionalism and respect. Recently, my dog was diagnosed with cancer and decisions about end of life care had to be made. In a terrible situation, Dr. Hageman & Tami were compassionate PEOPLE and treated my family, myself and my sweet doggy better than I could have ever hoped for.

They were able to schedule us quickly for a tech appointment to get them clipped. We were taken back to a room immediately, waited no more than a minute for the techs to come to the room. They were very sweet with my fearful dog as well as my toddlers. Nails were quickly clipped and paw pads cleaned up where they were punctured. In and out in less than 10 minutes. A different place I had called initially was telling me they would have to put him under anesthesia and pay an emergency visit fee before they even saw how minimally ingrown they were. Really appreciate a vet that evaluates and charges appropriately!!

I'm so impressed with this animal shelter and how well it is run and loved by the community. We…read morestopped this weekend to drop-off a bit of everything on their wishlist. I was surprised to see so many other cars in the parking lot. There was another family dropping off donations, and a family who was picking-up a new member of their family, a well cared for dog. There were also three teens who were cleaning the cat kennels in a separate room. The main room is open where there is a couch, fireplace, laundry room and office with cat kennels and four large, dog kennels surrounding the room. The animals all looked relaxed - the small to medium size dogs were excited, the kittens were play fighting and adult cats were either sleeping or chilling. There was also another room that housed 8 large dogs, and they all had a nice, cozy place to sleep, plenty of room to walk around and fresh food and water. On each cage, there were notes about the dogs, like "hard toys only", "keep in kennel, jumped over cage", etc. The third room housed more cats. It was small, and the smell was a bit over-powering, but the teens were busy cleaning each cage. The cats looked content and cared for. The entire facility is clean and well maintained. There are also kennels outside with tarps covering the tops to protect the dogs from sun and rain when they are let outside while their kennels are being cleaned. From the extra blankets, netting, fencing and wood boards, the care-givers have gone out of their way to keep the dogs from being able to escape or take nips at each other which I image happens when dogs get bored or playful. They all had several toys in their kennels too, as did all the cats. The volunteers at the shelter are very friendly, the board member present gave us a tour, answered all our questions, allowed us to wander the facility freely, and let us adore the animals at our leisure. I admired their system for organizing the food by expiration dates and mixing them to prevent the dogs from getting used to one and getting sick, if introduced to something different. They also have a system for letting the cats out of their cages to play and enjoy the room either during the day or night. From the amount of good sized kennels, towels, blankets, litter boxes, cat beds, toys and food, the community does its part in chipping in to keep this place going strong. They have a website and facebook profile. The VP on the board who was there that day was very gracious, welcoming, extremely nice and personable and could not thank us enough for our donations. It was also nice to learn that the members of the board are experienced animal rescuers and professionals in the community. We look forwards to working with them in the future.

We've been going to The Animal Wellness Center for 6 years. We appreciate their holistic approach…read more They offer all of the services that a normal vet does, because they are board certified vets, but usually at less cost, and with a holistic approach. If you want bloodwork or a specific screening, just ask. If you want homeopathy, or dietary advice, just ask. The front desk staff have always been kind, courteous and very knowledgeable to us. We've seen our animals handled very compassionately and with their best interest at heart. We drive from 1 hour away to work with them, and because of that distance, I've learned to clarify when making the appointment what it is I'm looking for and need for my pet. Sometimes they can handle what's needed just by phone, and sending stuff in the mail, so the drive isn't always necessary. If you are travelling from far away, I highly recommend that you call before making an in person appointment, and ask if it's something they can address by phone first. If it's not, then the drive is warranted, and you can always request that you have all the bloodwork, manual exam, and medical testing you want for your pet when making the appointment.

I do not recommend this place. While the vet has an awesome view on holistic health for dogs, his…read morestaff are not in the same boat and miscommunicate often about his views and about charges. We traveled 2 hours for this visit and the vet didn't even give her an exam. Didn't listen to her heart, didn't check in her ears or paws or anus. Just checked her ribs and verified we were feeding the appropriate amount of food. That's it. He graciously answered many of our questions but instead of excusing himself to move on to his next patient after our scheduled time was up he instead kept us longer and we had no knowledge of it as there was clock in the room. So we were billed for more than what was scheduled. That was unfair to us. We also were billed more for a nosode than what his assistant told me the charge would be. Because we paid cash for it, they were not willing to reimburse us the difference after we had already come home. He told us that he would get back to us on the other questions he didn't have time to answer but we never heard back from him. After a week I contacted the office and spoke with Emily who said she'd find out when he was going to respond and would call me back the same day. I never heard back from her and after expressing our disappointment with the visit the staff have now blocked all communication with me and the doctor won't respond to my texts. Very unprofessional of a business to act in this manner. We now regret the time and money that was spent for a visit we got very little from.
