Everyone is always friendly here. The wait is always crappy because it's walk in only, so that is totally understandable. I have been bringing my dogs here for a long time, and it's a good place for vaccinations. BUT... brought my little senior pom in for an estimate on her teeth. She has notoriously horrible teeth and has already had multiple removed, no matter what I do she just has typical bad pom teeth, plus she is old. She also has a growth on her gums that needs to be removed. The quote I got initially was about $850. ... read more

About as good as the year 2020, total crap for customer service. Arrived before 9:00, which is when they opened. A sign in the door said they begin check in at 8:00. When I called earlier in the morning there was no indication that I could arrive early to check in. Mind you I called several times and could t get anyone to answer the phone. I texted them my information, as I was instructed to do. After a half hour I had not heard anything from them, nor did I receive the form they said they would send me to fill out, so I tex... read more

Terrible! This clinic is it strictly for the money, no care or compassion for families or their pets! Two years ago we adopted a dog, started taking him to Value pet clinic and purchased a paw plan. A little over a year ago we adopted a kitten, and started taking him to value pet clinic with a paw plan. We thought it was a great value, and loved the assurance that we would never have to concern about not being able to afford care. During the months of March-June I called 15 times, emailed twice and got not one correspondenc... read more

Going to make this as brief as i can, but do not go to this vet. My dog, who is elderly, went in for simple dental work after which they gave her a three day pain medication and gave us some other pain meds to give her if she seemed to be hurting. at the time she was very wobbly and couldnt really walk and would not respond to her name or words she knew and we assumed this was because of the pain meds they gave her and relaxed a little. value pet clinic also told us that she had stage one kidney disease(keep this one in mind... read more

I cannot even give a one star rating for this clinic as they are terrible in getting in touch with us. We called for the medication for our spayed 10 year old dog who has a urinary incontinence problem and the medication takes care of that problem. We left a message Sunday evening but heard nothing on Monday. Calling them and getting on hold for minutes then finally answering they said they do not listen to their messages. Now who does that? We have been trying on our 5th day with the usual we will give you a call respo... read more

I'm giving such a low rating for the attitude I received and horrible communication skills of this clinic. I called around 1 and talked to the lady on the phone, being very clear with me that I could still bring my puppy in for her first round of shots because that's considered essential (a puppy without any vaccines is risking getting sick) I got the clear. She said I could come in. Told her I would be in not too long after calling and not right before closing. Get there (at 3:30) Got turned me down. Did I call the wrong d... read more

Took my dog here to get a dental exam, they were not able to do an exam at that time and said he would need to be sedated for an actual exam. After that I was given a price sheet with a $1400 total for things they are guessing would need to be done along with a credit card application , meds prices were higher priced then what i can get them for anywhere else. fees for other services were very high. Dr was in the room for maybe a min to tell me she couldn't do an exam, and after it was done I still had to pay the $41 for an ... read more

Just dont. Especially do not see Dr Hughes. Shes awful, rude, chooses to stay uneducated in a ever changing world of pet health and doesnt care to ask pertinent questions about your pet before making assumptions. I know Value Pet is not a great place to begin with but I figured for just vaccines it would be a doable visit. Nope, it wasnt. Dont trust Dr Hughes with your pet, not even for vaccines. Better yet, stay away all together. Also, I used to work for these guys years and years ago and I know how they treat your p... read more
