Review content:
We had never been here before but were referred by another fantastic veterinarian when we knew it was time to euthanize our beloved dog, Nike. Our son had to finish work so that he could be there and the place we were also treated with much compassion was going to close at one (it was a Saturday of a Memorial Day weekend) so they referred us here to be seen later in the day. In addition to being an amazingly compassionate service who can see you when you've never been their patient before, they are open 24 hours! They are in a beautiful country setting in a clean and modern new-looking building. \r

We were happy with what we saw when we drove up, after spending 40 minutes in the car with my lovely Nike in my lap. We walked in to find staff smiling and immediately keying into our pained expressions, asking us softly what we could do. There was business to be done, of course, but I barely filled out the form when I was distracted and the girl took it and said it was ok, I didn't have to do any more. \r

They called triage to the front and within 2 minutes someone appeared and asked us what we needed,and we told her. It went very smoothly from there; quickly we were given a room to spend time in, as much as we needed. Ten or so minutes later, someone asked us if we were ready for a dr or did we need more time. They made us feel that they had nothing else to attend to all evening, except to care for us. When the dr came in, and I am sorry I cannot remember her name because she was fantastic, she also made sure we knew this was all about us. She explained everything to us in a soft, caring voice and watched us for signs of other concerns before doing anything. She offered us the option of going outside in a little garden area on a bench to do this, and we opted for that since Nike's favorite thing was to be outside.\r

Again, we took our time saying goodbye, and this lovely doctor, a wonderful person whose calling in life is clearly to be a veterinarian to care for well loved pets and their owners, made us feel as though she did not have another thing to do or think about for the rest of the evening, but take care of us. What a blessing this place was for us! \r

If you need emergency or specialty care for your pet, you are doing the right thing to bring him or her here. I don't know if they do regular vet services, but if they do, and you live within 30 miles, you would do well to bring him or her to this veterinary office. As it is, if I ever own another dog, I will bring her here for any special or emergency service. It is so completely worth a drive from anywhere! A true blessing!
