Dr. Toben is wonderful with my dog. My pet was abused and starved by his previous owners, so he has some trust and social issues, but he's as calm as he can be with the staff at Apollo. They understand his needs and they work with him. I went to three other vets when I first rescued my dog, but he reacted negatively and usually tried to bite the doctor! Dr. Toben sat right down on the floor with him and pet him before beginning the check-up, which made my dog feel much more at ease. Because he trusts the doc, I trust the doc. The vet takes his time with us, never makes us feel rushed, and explains things very clearly. Dr. Toben has also spoke to me about home remedies for my dog before jumping right into a vet visit and an expensive medication, which I really appreciate since I don't make a ton of money. My dog is getting much older now, and I know I'll get another dog eventually after he passes, and we'll keep going to Apollo for all our veterinary needs.
