We moved here two years ago, and have had a tough time finding a vet we really love. We visited Kirkwood while taking a friend's cat for an appointment, and like the vet, but found the office staff to be utterly rude - to all comers impartially (not great, but not personal!).
Another hospital seemed okay for the cats, but they didn't keep IVD food in stock. Happily, the VCA *does* - and that was my first experience with them. They had what I needed and were friendly.
That was important when I unexpectedly encountered a 90 pound dog with behavioural issues. We took her in to VCA - they found a same-day appointment for us! As with our first visit over a year ago, the staff was very warm and very professional. All our options were explained, and it seems as if both vets and staff take a sincere interest in their patients.
We've definitely found our new vet hospital and are absolutely delighted. I'd recommend them unreservedly.
Pros: service, care
Cons: there are no cons!
