Featured Clinic Overview
- •Clear explanations and time for questions: several owners mention the vet explaining everything and answering questions during visits. - Responsiveness for urgent issues: one owner reports getting an appointment within two hours for a dog that suddenly couldn’t use his back legs, followed by medication and advice on follow-up with their usual vet. - Practical follow-through: sharing case information with a pet’s regular vet is specifically mentioned; so is a call to confirm acceptance of a temporary registration fee before the visit.
