            Don't go here. Honestly, front desk is fine, Vet Assistants are nice, but the Vets... are not good, and the pricing is concerning. I rescued a cat and asked to have her checked if she way spayed or not. They shaved her and told me she wasn't spayed. I asked for a quote for spaying and they said it would be around $900. I ended up going to the **** for a much less expensive spay ($275) my girl was put under anesthesia and the vets there, found her scar. She was spayed, and I only had to pay for anesthesia which was 50%. I spent money for no reason to have my cat put under... I was not happy to say the least.Additionally, my girl needed 2 vaccines. I brought her in and mentioned the spay situation, they said that they only really look for tattoos... not an apology, not a concern, just an excuse. Finally the vet missed injection of the two vaccines 3 times. Let me tell you, this cat is chill, relaxed, loving, but after being held by strangers, being jabbed by needles, after the second miss, she was ******. I don't trust them, and honestly I think they would have happily charged me an arm and a leg to "spay" my girl.
