These guys are great, especially when you get down to end of life issues. They are always very kind, compassionate, understanding, and accommodating. They are very good about presenting all your options and being realistic with how much each is going to cost. Previous coworkers have always spoken well of Dr. Breniger, and if you have a bird, he's definitely your guy as well.

I took my kitten here. It was her first time at the vet so she was nervous. The staff said she was hissing and there was nothing they could do with her. Imagine a kitten that’s never been to the vet and is surrounded by strangers hissing because she is scared... they do not care about the animals themselves, just getting you in and out the door. We will not be bringing any of our animals back here.
