Love this place. Got to work one morning and my co-workers and I found an injured wild rat. He was hurt pretty bad and we didn't want to see him suffer. So we called Lifetime to see if we could bring him in so that they could humanely euthanize him. They told us not to wait and to come in asap. Dr. Cole was so awesome, looked him over first before just jumping straight to euthanasia to make sure it wasn't something he could help, but unfortunately in the end the only option was euthanasia :(. He and staff were so helpf... read more

Couldn't be happier with Lifetime. We have been going there for our pets' needs for at least 10 years and will continue. I have been able to see a vet on very short notice whenever necessary and cost has always been clearly explained prior to treatment. Everyone there is helpful and competent.

Dr. Hardy and his entire staff are absolutely the best. All of my animals, over the last 20 some years, have loved everyone there. I cannot say enough wonderful things about them all!

Took my dog in thinking he had eaten something and just wanted x-rays to ease my mind and "Boom" no problem, and my dog had a really bad experience somewhere else and after discussing this, they baby talked him all the way through his visit didn't rush him; and let him know that everything is ok. He came out of the x-ray room and didn't have bloodshot eyes which tells me without a doubt he was not stressed. I am very, very pleased for sure..

I went on vacation and when I got back my 12-year-old dog Josie (Beagle ) had an ear infection. Her regular vet was booked up for another eight days before I could get her in. So I called Lifetime and was able to schedule her in for the next morning to see the vet Dr. Sondi. The visit went well and the treatment prescribed had her well in no time. However last week in the earlier hours Josie went outside and took her last breath which was very difficult for our family. We wrapped her up and took her to Lifetime in order to h... read more

I have been an animal advocate for over 10 years and ran a dachshund rescue. Educating adopters/owners on quality health care for their dachshunds was part of our program. I needed a good quality vet, close to home, that would actually LISTEN to me and treat me like a partner/advocate for my dogs. Not roll their eyes over my concern about my dog's elevated liver values. With Lifetime you get competent, compassionate and honest care. Their staff is friendly and caring but they don't get in your pet's face and goo-goo over the... read more

Thanks for sharing your experience with us, Lee Anne! We can't wait to see you and your dachshunds again soon!

Our 17-year-old terrier had a nasty abscessed tooth that was leaving him in a lot of pain. As you can imagine, we were very nervous about our senior dog being operated on. The vet walked us through all of the tests to ensure our dog was in good condition for surgery. Our dog passed the tests with flying colors and we opted to have the tooth extracted. Dr. Sondhi addressed all of our concerns and assured us that there would be extra help in the operating room to watch over our dog's vital signs. I am thrilled that the operat... read more

Thank you for sharing your experience, Hollie! We appreciate your feedback and are happy to hear your dog is feeling better!

Dr. Sondhi and the staff at Lifetime are everything we could want in a vet. We are on our third dog with them (2 labs and now our Swissy). The care is effective, professional and responsive to our needs. Dr. Sondhi is patient with our never ending list of questions and always available when we need to talk with him. And when our Swissy was recovering from an artificial hip procedure, she received a get-well card in the mail. Can't say enough good things about Dr. Sondhi and the folks at Lifetime. 

Business response:

Thank you for your kind compliments, Dan! We love caring for your pups and appreciate you trusting us with their care!
