“From the moment my Aussie, Lyla, came in the door she received “special” treatment. She was given a treat and lots of pets and attention. What impressed me most was the time the staff took to make certain Lyla felt comfortable with them. The sweet assistant even sat on the floor and played with Lyla. Dr. Manwarren was the vet to examine Lyla and she also took time to make Lyla comfortable. She was very thorough and answered all my questions. This is by far the friendliest and most caring vet clinic I have ever visited.” – Peggy M.
