Dr. Newman has cared for our dogs for 19 years. He's always been responsive and concerned.
I couldn't ask for a better caretaker for our beloved pets.

Love our vet . He is kind and and very knowledgeable. The clinic is clean and efficient. They don't push products or unnecessary services. The price for a well visit with one vaccine and a fecal test was $243. That seems high to me but maybe it is just the going rate these days
