I have been to this place twice once for my male dog that had back surgery and recently for my female that had knee/ACL surgery! Dr. Hortsman did the back surgery for my male BamBam and it was a success and Dr. Mason did the ACL surgery for my female Pebbles and so far it has also been a success! They are very caring about your pets and take very good care of them! They truly do treat them like children!! Most of the office staff is very nice!! The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because they are very pricey!! But there is nothing I wouldn't do for my babies!! I highly recommend this place if u ever need special surgeries, they seem to be very knowledgeable and very caring about your pets!!
