I started coming here when my pet was a puppy and for all of his first year shots. We had a great experience until he had an eye issue at about 6 months. They did an eye stain test that then made him scared of eye drops which he was prescribed during the visit. Despite multiple people trying to help me administer the drops, he would not allow it. I had his doggy day care and boarding attempt and they could not do it either. I called the office to explain the trouble that I was having giving him the drops and asked for any alternative to the drops - ointment, pill, anything. I called several times and the calls weren’t returned at all on multiple occasions. When I did get a call back the front desk told me that I should just come back in for another appointment (costing hundreds of dollars again) which the doctor later said was not necessary. I was finally told that drops were the only option and to look into training for my dog. Throughout the series of calls, they said that I could come in to get help applying the drops but it would be ~$50 each time for a tech visit and another type of visit (that I can’t recall the name of at the moment). About a month later, I went to an emergency vet for something else and asked them to also look at his eye. Well what do you know - the vet there prescribed a topical ointment of the exact same medication as the drops and gave a pill form of an antibiotic that also helped to clear it up. I established care with another vet recently, they also prescribed a topical ointment for ongoing maintenance on the eye. My Vet & their staff were unnecessarily rude, uncaring and unwilling to help during the situation. They also seemed to be trying for a cash grab by telling me to come in again for another appointment. While they were great for the first appointments, there were no issues with my pet during those visits. When your pet is sick, especially a puppy as a first time pet owner, you just want to help the pet. Some compassion and kindness from your vet & vet staff (not to mention a prescription/remedy that actually works) goes a long way. My Vet showed none of that; in fact, they caused more problems and heartache, further aggravating the situation.

Been coming here for years. I’ve always had dogs. Milo was in their care most of his life he was 10 years old. He had seizures and anxiety needed check up regularly. Dr Lee and Dr Henry were the best with him. Very patient and always explained everything in detail and looked out for what was best for him. When he passed it was super hard for us and the staff really reached out to help us with our grief on a few occasions. From calls to cards. I will never forget that. We recently got a stray cat Xena and took her today for her first visit. It was so nice to see them again. Never had a tiny kitten but Dr Henry and her staff as usual answered our questions and I know they will continue to do so as always

My Vet took the absolute best care of our sweet cat Sonny who unfortunately passed from a progressive kidney disease. Every single person who works here was so compassionate and caring towards our cat. Dr. Henry was informative and friendly and explained everything to us in ways we could understand. Anytime we brought our cat in for check ups, they gave him lots of treats and made sure he was comfortable when getting tests or shots done. When his kidney disease progressed rapidly overnight, they moved their schedule around for us so we could bring him in to be put down. Although it was so hard for us to do, they made sure to take care of us and put our needs first. HUGE shoutout to women at the front desk who gave us hugs and really made us feel cared for. They said so many kind words to us and about our cat. If I could leave more than 5 stars I would, I trust them with all my future pet needs and recommend them to anyone!!

I wanted to take a moment to share the amazing experience we’ve had with the doctors and the staff at My Vet. Our doodle had developed fear and anxiety when going to the vet. Dr. Henry and the team worked closely with us to introduce the right medications to help reduce her stress. They were also incredibly patient with her during the appointments. Their care and attention has made a huge difference. We’re so appreciative, and would definitely recommend the team at My Vet. Thank you!

Dr. Lee saved my Boba's life. He diagnosed him with a possible gallbladder mucocele, called hospitals in the area that had ultrasound equipment to confirm and could perform the surgery. This is just above and beyond. I started going to this vet because it's walking distance, had great reviews and I wanted to support female-owned businesses where I could. I continue to go to this vet for such amazing service and caring staff. I don't want to look at my phone log to see how many times I've called asking questions. They're 90% me over-worrying, but no one ever makes me feel ridiculous. Dr. Robin, Dr. Lee and Dr. Frye are all wonderful. Cori, Lauren, Faith and everyone else who's helped Boba- bless you! (Apologies for any name misspellings). THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
