Dr. Schauer is so incredibly thorough with both our dogs and cats! She read over the entirety of their transfer records before the first appt and was very familiar with their medical history before meeting them. She’s up to date on the latest diagnostics and tests available. She’s also personable, friendly and you can tell she absolutely loves what she does. All the other staff we’ve interacted with are lovely as well - too many to list. They help us get to the room quickly, ask if we want help out and the place is spotless/clean. Love the hospital manager who keeps it all together! We are excited to start doggy day camp in a few weeks.

I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with VCA. From the moment I walked in, my boys have always felt welcomed and loved by the staff.
The team at VCA goes above and beyond to ensure the comfort and well-being of my pets. Whether it's a routine check-up or a more serious medical issue, I have always felt confident in the care they receive.
I appreciate the genuine compassion and dedication of the VCA staff. They truly treat my pets like family, and that means the world to me.
Thank you, VCA, for providing outstanding care and making every visit a great experience for my furry friends!

Very sweet staff. My senior rabbit, Wall-e, was going downhill fast. I took him in this morning, and they gave me treatment options, but were honest in saying it didn’t look like a simple infection, and that at this point, whatever was wrong wouldn’t be very treatable, and he might not even survive the testing. I had him put down. They let me help hold him so he wouldn’t be as scared. I feel I did right by him by helping him go as painlessly as possible. Thanks to all the staff for making it easier. They even gave me a nose print and some fur in a little vial.

We've been taking our pup here for the last 2ish years. Our most frequent services we used were Overnight Boarding and Sedated Nail Trim. It is very hard to find a place to trust especially with sedation AND to find a place that can handle a dog that is aggressive towards other pets. For boarding they have special services to keep him separate so there is no accidents. (SO STRESSFUL as the dog mom!!) After his first stay my fears were smothered! They absolutely loved our pup and I knew they actually cared about his well being & understood what type of care he needed. Every time we were there they would recognize him by name and adored having him. Now that we have moved out of state I had to request his medical records to another Vet. I talked with Jolene - She helped me transfer the medical records. She was incredibly sweet!!! So refreshing to talk to someone that is so cheerful!!!!! I am all about reviews and leave them honestly! I can't say enough good things! Over 2 years of visits almost every 6 weeks on average and then all the times we had to board him for our long weekend trips.....yes this place is GREAT!!!!!! Over that time period I can't even recall having any type of issue with the staffing or services big or little. Hope this helps someone who is looking for a great place to trust with their pets.

The VCA system is a bit over priced let’s get that out of the way, and they don’t have a payment plan set up. They do take care credit which helps a lot. That aside for this location all the doctors are great. I especially like Dr. Thomas and Dr. Cu (I might not be spelling that right). They’re great with my cats and I trust them whole heartedly. Dr. Geller is not the most sociable but he is committed and a great surgeon.
