No nonsense experienced veterinary care. This place is affordable because the vet is experienced and smart enough to make diagnoses without dozens of expensive tests. He knows what he is doing and offers sensible solutions. If you want a high end building with wonderful interior design, go elsewhere. My dogs are not worried about the architecture. This vet even owns another clinic that is nicer, but the care here is the same. My 130 lb. dog is too large for surgery at this clinic, so we go to the other clinic for surgery, but come here for everyday care. I have been going here for several years. I have two dogs and my wife has three cats. My last, very old, dog ended his days peacefully, in the back of my truck in the parking lot of this clinic. This was better than stressing him inside the clinic during his last minutes. I have a professional degree and you might not expect to see me at an "affordable" animal hospital, but why not. I would give an extra star if the building was beautiful and they served cappucino with examinations - but I dont need pampering.

I am new to the area, and had a 18yr old cat with renal failure. I was nervous going sight unseen to a new vet, but from the first phone call to make the appointment, to my final talk with Dr. Walia, I was so impressed with their knowledge, empathy, and wonderful treatment of our cat. I have worked in a Veterinary hospital, and am well aware of cost, necessary tests and unnecessary procedures. Dr Walia and his receptionist Katrina gave me quotes upfront, stayed in contact with me all day, and with true CARING professionalism, helped me with the upcoming death of our cat. I cannot recommend this hospital enough. The cost was extremely low compared to other vets in the area, but we would have paid anything- They are my permanent vet now.

Brought my poor sick little cat in there to get some antibiotics from when I got her fixed. The vet opened the incision right there in front of me, much to my dismay. Then proceeded to touch the insides of my car with no gloves on AND didnt wash his hands before touching my cat at all. I grabbed my poor hurting kitty and left to the closest vets office I could find that wasnt running some kind of slumlord vet clinic. Luckily my sweet little Edna is doing ok now...but no thanks to this lackluster excuse for a professional business. One of these days this company is going to mess with the wrong client and get dunked on! #dunkonanyone

Dr Wahlia has taken care of my pets for years. One of my dogs was shot and Dr. Wahlia gave her excellent care. She does not even have a scar and no one would ever know she was hurt. My older dog has arthritis and late one night was unable to move. I panicked. Fortunately, Dr. Wahlia is always available to his patients. I was able to contact Dr. Wahlia on his cell phone and he gave me instructions on what I should do. He is availabe for appointments and also for emergencies. He is a good doctor.

I got my female puppy fixed there and seems to not be having any problems. The receptionist was the sweetest/best women I could ask for. Im 9 months pregnant and she was more then happy to help me get my puppy into my car with out even a hesitation. This place also had the cheapest price for my puppy to be fixed which was amazing I only paid like $150 something instead of the $270 other places were trying to charge me.

We schedule an appointment for our dog who we suspected had ring worm and kennel cough so we wanted to get him treated asap but when we showed up to our appointment they were closed and said they were going to be back after lunch from 12:30-1:30 our appointment was at 12:30. Very frustrated we had to call around to find a vet with an opening very short notice.

Do not take your pet here! Absolutely outrageous prices! Overly aggressive handling of animals. Vet doesnt even remember your pet or you from a week prior. This guy is running a racket praying on poor vulnerable people who care for their pets deeply. He should be ashamed of himself! Im absolutely disgusted.

I can say this was the absolute worst experience Ive ever had with a Vet. Brought my 8 mo old English bulldog In for seizures , He came in, never did an exam and sent his assistant in with a $500 estimate . Never asked his history, symptoms nothing? Needless to say I got up and walked out

I was out of my normal area and my dogs ear was cut and bleeding heavily. They were able to see me immediately and had her patched within minutes. Everyone was super friendly and gentle and the care was very affordable!

Not clean, limited staff, and severely over aggressive treatment. I didnt appreciate vets attitude about decision making. Will NOT be back. Prices arent that great either.

Took us in same day without an appointment. The nurse was pleasant and we were right in. Pricing seemed reasonable for the services we got.
