Incredibly friendly vet! My kitty was abused by a man before I became his guardian, and he has always feared men. I was worried when I got an appointment with Dr. Joe after my kitty fell off a dresser and caught his leg in an open drawer. Dr. Joe was kind and patient, giving my kitty time to warm up to him before beginning his exam. He was gentle and took the time to answer all my questions about BOTH my kitties (even though the appointment was only for the one). He then personally priced out the cost of a food recommendation.
My cat wasn't stressed and neither was I. I've never had that at a vet's office.
The next day, his clinic called to check up on my kitty. I thought that was a great touch! I chose this vet clinic because they are in walking distance of my place, but I plan to stick with Dr. Joe.
One thing to note: they do not do payment plans, but they do support insurance. Trupanion pet insurance is my favorite if you are shopping around.
