  • "Seriously the best veterinarians office ever!!! Minnie and I have been visiting since I brought her home...Minnie loves to day board there. She's so excited to get there she doesn't even give me a look as I leave. Yesterday Minnie was spayed and the staff was so understanding of my crazy nervousness! They let me know that Minnie was OK after....and then they called me today to check on her and make sure she's doing OK. Please make sure that you look at the positive comments here...because I can promise you that Dr. G and Dr. R only want the best for your pet and they have hired the best folks to give that care!!! ☺️"
