★★★★★ First visit bringing my sick cat in and I am very impressed with the care shown to us. The tech Carey was friendly, professional, knowledgeable and anticipated what tests the Dr. might need. Dr. Wu was thorough with the exam and even asked a colleague Dr.'s opinion on test results. Every step of the way was explained so I had a clear understanding. Also received call next day to check on my pet's progress. Looking forward to our follow-up visit.

I've been so happy with all the staff from Laura who has been there for years and who has handled both my 1st Wylie who lived for 17 1/2 yrs before he passed in '2017 and now my Wylie #2 who has been with you since then.Dr Peppard has been with me for both Wylies and I can't say enough about his knowledge, skills in the vet area and most importantly the chemistry we have.I don't forget this but when I brought my Wylie #1 in back on Jan.'17 on a Sat and unfortunate to have at that time and glad he left was Dr S. . and Amy who is there still and told me Wylie was not constipated but later that day at Greenbrier when later in A.M when I left and went home and knew Wylie was not good went to Greenbrier and I still have a disc of Wylie and showed to Dr Peppard about how blocked up he was re constipation.I'm glad Dr S is gone. Amy is questionable in my view but my favorites are Dr P and Laura and the front desk and especially who I forgot her name but is he senior lady with years with you is so special. Long way of saying you are great and Wylie #2 is Ok with you.

    I can't say enough about Dr. Peppard. He is absolutely wonderful with my sweet Ladybug. When he comes in the room he immediately sits on the floor and she climbs into his lap, smiling a big toothy smile.
