Customer's reviews

Honest fair and compassionate are all words that come to mind when I think of my experience here. I have 2 dogs (1 with severe anxiety) that have both gone here since they were little. The staff has been patient with my dog who is terrified of the vet and has made accommodations so that he feels comfortable when he is there. My other dog (accident prone) has had another surgery at another vet and was traumatized. When he was diagnosed with cancer and the staff made sure that I as the owner was informed and assured he would be given the best care. They were able to remove the tumor and my pup is living a healthy and happy lifestyle and was not traumatized by the surgery like in the past. Even after moving further away I wouldn’t take my boys to anyone else! ~ Kayla H
We met Dr. Sondhi and his great staff when our Great Pyrnees puppy, Captain, starting limping. At 8 months, he's already 88+ lbs, so we were worried that it could be something more serious than simple growing pains. Dr. Sondhi took the time to explain possible causes, drew diagrams and looked up reference material specific to this breed. He performed thorough range of motion tests on Captain's limbs (something his prior vet failed to do). Dr. Sondhi takes his time and has a great bedside manner with animals. His front and back office staff is also very attentive and loving with their patients. We are very pleased that in Captain's case, after x-rays, it was a simple case of tendinitis. Glad to have found a reliable, honest practice that will care for our furry friend for years to come. ~ SD E
My dog had had some kind of skin issue on his elbow for a few weeks, but never seemed to bothered him. I had been planning on making an appointment with the vet, but have been so busy with other things. This afternoon I was grabbing some lunch in the plaza and I happened to have my dog with me. I figured I would stop in quick and show the receptionist a photo to see if it warranted a more urgent visit. She asked one of the veterinarians who was in the clinic (but not actually working) to look at the photo. He insisted that we go out to my vehicle and take a look at Maverick. He did a very quick assessment and gave me recommendations on the spot. I am super appreciative for that and they’ve made us and any future fur baby’s patients for life! ~ J J
