Report
We recently moved and were in need of a new vet. Based on recommendations and searching through reviews, I decided on Dr. Toms practice. We own two dogs, and Ive had dogs my whole life. Ive been through it all - hit and runs, ticks, broken legsyou name it, weve been through it. Ive had three different vets and have had some of the best and worst experiences with them. One of the greatest struggles with vets is the judgement and fear mongering. I dont respond well to those especially because no one knows what one is going through and using owners as prey for money is something

I was very apprehensive taking our new puppy for her first (with us) vet appointment. Violet was very scared to leave me but had the best time inside and made a new friend at the front desk. I was so happy and relieved. Great experience.
