I took my perfectly healthy dog Cinnamon to this hospital for a simple teeth cleaning by their Vet Tec named Angelos. Shortly after the procedure my dog started to cough and so I contacted him about it. He said that it was ok and that her trachea was probably inflamed. He also came over to my apartment and administered narcotics for which he is not licensed to do! But the coughing persisted and my Cinnamon started to cough up blood. I immediately rushed her over to an emergency hospital and come to find out that we had to put her down. This was just a simple teeth cleaning! When I confronted Dr. Death he had enough nerve to throw a measly $500 to my face and said, ""Take the money or sue me!"" If you want to euthenize your pet this is the perfect hospital!!! I highly do not recommend this vet even to my worst enemy! more

This vet truly cares about your pet as much as you do. You can tell that they are not in it for the money, it's because they have a heart for all animals and want to give them the best possible care ever. The thing that touched me the most is when Dr. Coghlan, himself, tried to grab a urine sample from my dog the old fashioned way by waiting for him to urinate on the grass and capturing it so he wouldn't have to use a catheter, which is invasive and uncomfortable. This is the first vet where my dog was actually wagging his tail despite being very sick instead of shaking uncontrollably. Dr. Coghlan is one of a kind vet who really knows his stuff and will give your pet the best care possible. All of their prices are reasonable and actually below what other vets are charging. This is the best vet that I've ever been to and I'm truly thankful and blessed to have found this wonderful place by a friend of mine. more
