Everybody in the office is great and the back office staff seem very knowledgeable and are gentle and kind. Love Dr. Ingram. The most important part is they treat my dog well. They seem caring when he’s nervous.

This was my first visit, and I was impressed with the excellent service we received. The staff was welcoming, and Dr. Pador gave my cat a thorough exam as well as treating a bad eye which was the primary reason I had made the appointment. We will be returning.

Loved the vet, my new puppy was comfortable with him, and the staff was very nice. I had called another vet originally and had to be called back spoke to a virtual person just to tell me to go on line to make an appointment. Here I called wanted a few minutes, was asked questions about my new pup and scheduled my appointment. I was called back a day later about thw vaccinations. Very personable.

Dr. Kang was extremely attentive, communicated clearly and was very thorough during our dog’s examination. She provided suggestions for flea abatement tailored to our dogs age and temperament. True professional!
Dr Ingram and her assistant were both very thorough and professional. Everything was explained in detail and they made sure I understood everything. I did not feel rushed or like they were trying to upsell me like other vet hospitals have in the past. I am very happy and trust they have my cats’ best interest.
- Price assessment: Not sure
This Group provides the best care I have ever experienced...the entire staff is professional and caring. The testing and reporting are expansive. The doctors are excellent and provide detailed reporting on "Recommended" items and "Suggested" items. You always know the current status and what to expect and prepare for. Wonderful experience and me and my little doggie.

This veterinarian’s office vibe was so calming and relaxed. Our first time there and will definitely go back. The waiting room was clean and comfortable and waited no more than 5 minutes. At the last veterinarian my dog needed to be muzzled and was super stressed but not at this place. This assistant held her in her arms and the vet was very compassionate while sharing options for care. So wonderfully different from my last experience
