Communication

Pros:

  • "Their communication is spectacular. We received texts as soon as Romy was out of surgery."
  • "Dr. Purdon is by far THE best Vet we’ve ever had. She’s personable, doting, thorough, detailed, & communicates every single detail during our visits, or via text, or via e-mail."
  • "The communication is fast & efficient over email."
  • "They were very responsive to our inquiries, thoughtful, thorough, and showed immense care and compassion."
  • "Everyone from the front desk to the vet tech to the vet was so kind and helpful."
  • "They are always so responsive, listen and follow up (which is hard to find!)."
  • "I especially appreciate their follow up texts and responsiveness to emails."

Cons:

  • "Only complaint is they took a few days to send over the receipts and records (I had to ask for them) and I had to read over the record to find out that he needed a medication."
  • "Wanted to get my cate in and went to the site. It has Appointment booking buttons that don't work, they have SMS but you can't use it if you are a new patient but there is no way to know that so ended up waiting for a reply."
  • "Communicating with them is v frustrating."
  • "They could have easily called or emailed asking us to call them back and make an appointment for the results. But nope. TRASH SERVICE. NO EMPATHY."

Staff and Veterinarians

  • "The vet techs and veterinarians are incredibly caring and knowledgeable."
  • "Absolutely wonderful veterinarians and practice. The staff is exceptionally kind and seems to care about each pet."

Cons:

  • "Place is horrible!!! My mistake is giving it another chance after the first bad experience."
  • "Save your time and money. Go to a vet who actually cares."
  • "Staff is absolutely rude. No greetings upon entering, provide no clear/consistent answers from technician to vet during visits, inclusive of pricing."
  • "They do not actually give good care but have a system to only take the people that are willing to overpay to look a pretty color on a wall."

Facility and Environment

Pros:

  • "The clinic itself is absolutely beautiful and they play great music. :)"
  • "The space is of course beautiful and sparkly clean, and no vet/hospital smell which is amazing for cat parents."

  • "Also the space is absolutely beautiful. Not your typical bland vet experience this is first class!"
  • "The physical space creates an aura of calm not found in most veterinary offices."
  • "The space is beautiful and fully equipped for x-rays, rehab, and even surgery!"
  • "The office space itself is modern and beautiful!!"

Cons:

  • "It’s all frills, and slightly classists."
  • "This place is trash. The warm and welcoming atmosphere is a ruse to distract you from the fact that they're greedy vets who care more about the money than the actual wellbeing of your pet."
  • "Also their waiting room should play calming music for anxious pets. Bugs me every time."

Cost and Pricing

Pros:

  • "The balance between cost effective care and comfort exist. But this is not the place. Too Boujie – it’s all frills, and slightly classists."
  • "They were also very transparent about their pricing for the visit."
  • "Notwithstanding the superior service, I was surprised see that all of the fees were very competitive and average for the area."
  • "The pricing here is very reasonable as well."
  • "The treatment was much more affordable than other places I've been to."

Cons:

  • "It's definitely a little more expensive as local vets go."
  • "Overpriced as always, costing over $500 for annual immunizations and checks."
  • "We soon started to see inconsistencies with the consultation fee (ranging from $65-$100)."
  • "I dropped a star for expense unfortunately, it's understandable with the quality of the office design, location and level of care but when bringing in a rescue it's pretty cost prohibitive."
