My wife and I like Dr. Weber quite a bit. She is fair and transparent about her cost [not the cheapest but not the most expensive]. We feel get good quality care for our dog [mixed poodle/bichon]. As an aside, owning a pet is a responsibility; if you have the audacity to think you can care for another life then be a responsible person and look up the costs and time needed to be a reliable guardian. We were not surprised that vet care is costly because we did our research ahead of time. While vet care definitely hits our wallets we decided, as we adopted him, that we will be accountable for the cost of his care. At any rate, our dog had to get all his upper teeth extracted due to an infection he likely developed as a stray [we adopted a year earlier from the SPCA]. The whole surgery was expensive but Dr. Weber was very upfront with the estimated cost and gave us ample warning the procedure was nearly unavoidable during prior visits. The surgery went well, the office followed up with us routinely, and now -- several weeks later -- our little guys is much happier for it.

Always excellent and they (Dr. Dani n her assistant Robert) thoroughly explain in detail what diagnosis/treatment. (& yes, I *am* her sister - however, what with sibling rivalry and all, there is no chance I would go to someone or write good things of them, if I wasnt completely sure of them!) After reading the one anonymous negative review, I see obvious reasons why it would cost a lot more to fix their overweight dog at a proper vet than at a discount clinic. After coming to Dr. Dani for over six years with both my dogs n my cat, they would have explained what they could do ahead of time. if your dog is very overweight, surgery is going to cost more. Dr. Dani had to remove a cancerous toe from my ex-boyfriends dog - she did such an outstanding job! Savannah, a Bloodhound, actually looked afterwards like having three toes instead of four was completely natural. Dani balanced it out n the unintentional cute part was that Savannahs paw print after that always looked like a dinosaur! so cute. lots of little stitches makes for a much better looking site!

I found Dr. Weber to be compassionate, have excellent follow-up and the ability to put medical terms/conditions into terms that one not familiar with veterinary medicine can understand. She is also very smart and conscientious. In his old age my dog became very, very sick. No one knew what was wrong. Dr. Weber felt it had to be neurological. When we went to Sage they questioned Dr. Webers diagnosis. After they spent time with my dog and ran some tests they came to the same conclusion as Dr. Weber and applauded her diagnosis, which was a very rare disease that is difficult to detect and horrible for anyone to experience: Myasthenia Gravis. Dr. Weber made herself available for questions, meltdowns and all the difficult decisions. She was a great help through a very difficult process. Let me also add that the 15 years prior to this disease my dog was unbelievably healthy. No one could believe he was as old as he was. I have Dr. Weber to thank for that too :)

We initially liked this clinic and doctor for our small matltipoo until the time came to have her spayed. SPCA is $60, but we couldnt get an appointment that would fit with our schedule so we decided wed pay the vets cost of around $200 just to get it done. My husband ended up paying over $500! They said they had to cut extra fat away from her, charged extra for the stitches (shes under 10lbs) and other assorted things of this nature. They also told him that she needed to have a catheter and IV fluids but would only do this for an additional fee of $120. SPCA has a fair price and had I know what greedy crooks these people are I would have cancelled appointments to have it done by the shelter. Hope this helps someone else, I would have loved this info before I chose my vet.

Dr. Weber has been my Veterinarian of choice since we got our Boxer five years ago. Boxers are notoriously difficult to keep in excellent health. They are prone to mast cell tumors. Not only did Dr. Weber detect Daisys tumors early, but the difficult surgeries to remove them were flawlessly executed. Daisy recovered within a few days and has no recurrence of the tumors. Dr. Weber is also diligent about Daisys dental health, another problem area for Boxers. Highly recommended for all kinds of pets.

Best vet I have ever been to! A bit pricey but I really trusted her with my pets life while he underwent emergency surgery. The staff is great, really helpful and nice. "Bark," says Buddy! (Roughly translated...Thanks!)
