Friendly vets, with a short wait time, just in and out which is nice. Dr Vickers is the best vet Ive been to (Ive tried 6) and was helpful when we brought my cat in after visiting several other vets who were not able to figure out the issue. However, my cats blood results got lost either here or the lab AND my cat got fleas from being at the vet. I asked for some flea medicine and the front desk said they wouldnt give it to me for free because he couldve got the fleas from anywhere. Anywhere?! He hasnt had fleas in 8 years and hes an indoor cat, he obviously got them at the vet where there are tons of animals. So pretty unhappy about this policy, pretty ridiculous. Also we have to put him down in 5 days so wouldnt it be great if he didnt have to deal with fleas on top of his failing Liver?! Update: I had to bring in my cat, since the bloodwork was lost, and Dr Vickers re-did the blood work for free. She also gave him flea meds. This makes up for earlier so Ive updated my review. Dr Vickers is the best and I highly recommend coming here. But my only gripe still is that one of the front desk girls is pretty rude for no reason.

I have been with Avenues since 2003. First with Dr Anderson then Dr Vickers and Dr ONeill...three WONDERFUL doctors. In 2006 I adopted a kitty that turned out to have many very serious chronic health issues since infanthood. At 3 months I was told by Dr Anderson her life expectancy was not too promising..but he didnt give up on my baby. Thanks to the wonderful careing Doctors at Avenues she just turned 11yrs old 2weeks ago. The techs are great and the front desk staff ..well they are like a family..staff is not who they are, they are caring kind wonderful professional devoted people. The word staff does not do them justice. I thank god for Avenues pet hospital and everyobe there. They go above and beyond whats expected. They are truly a blessing.

The few times Ive visited this veterinary clinic I was given to a different practitioner each time. We were referred by friends. I will say that if you go in there for a routine procedure you can be sure that it will escalate into a bill of several hundred dollars or more. Unfortunately we also had a hideous experience, has stayed with me, due to the intensely childish response by a member of the office staff regarding their payment procedure. A simple conversation about the fact that they dont except American Express turned into a convoluted personal battle of wills between office staff the managing Vet and myself. They may be good with pets but theyre absolutely horrible with people.

We had been with Banfield for years and finally moved on to Avenues. What a difference! I love servies we receive there. They share my philosophy- no unnecessary meds or shots. They never try to sell you anything. The vet always follows up on tests and calls you as he promised. The reception is able to find all our info quickly when I call without being placed on hold for a long time. The place could have been upgraded a bit but this is not the most important part when it comes to vet care. Our vet is Dr.Schwock. We love him.

We have brought our French bulldog here for five years- he was even born here! The staff are great here. They treat us with compassion and care. They dont overcharge. Theyre always in communication. Theyre straight forward. In a tough job, they do an amazing job! We love their team :)

Been bringing my fur babies here for over 30 years. So some have passed and have adopted more over time. From the front office staff to the technicians and vets, they are all so caring and dont push treatments that your pets dont need. Totally trust these people
