What recent reviews say

Staff and Dr. German use Fear Free methods that visibly calm anxious and aggressive dogs, transforming vet visits from ordeals into positive experiences. The clinic offers free happy visits to build trust, exam rooms designed like living rooms with couches instead of metal tables, and hourlong appointments that let pets set the pace. Specific staff members Max, Larissa, and Dr. Erdman earned repeated praise for their skill with fearful animals. Even dogs requiring sedation elsewhere handle procedures smoothly here, and follow-up care is thorough.

Reviewers described transformations: a dog who refused to leave the car now drags owners in; an anxious rescue went from cowering to sitting in staff laps for vaccines; a senior dog with wobblers lost 50 pounds under Dr. German's diet and supplement plan. Dental cleanings, USDA health certificates, and emergency care all receive the same patient, detailed approach. Pricing is transparent and reasonable, with no hidden costs.

Staff and vets earn consistent praise for patience and kindness, especially with fearful or anxious pets. Dr. Morgan is mentioned by name multiple times as compassionate and thorough. Most reviewers feel heard and well-informed, though a few note surprise charges and vague upfront pricing on procedures, care plans, and medications.

Every recent review names a doctor or technician by name and describes genuine care toward both pet and owner. Dr. Monica Watterud, Dr. Molly Cominsky, and Dr. Frost appear consistently, with reviewers noting their recall of patient history, gentle restraint of stressed animals, and willingness to explain diagnoses and next steps. Clients consistently mention being treated as people, not transactions. Staff including Maria and Rachel handle anxious cats, aggressive dogs, and new puppy owners with equal patience. One family switched vets solely because Dr. Watterud caught a tumor missed elsewhere; another learned their nervous dog's previous vet had overlooked a condition. Fair pricing and transparent cost breakdowns are named across multiple visits.
