Our nine year old German Shepherd, Gus, recently needed surgery to remove a foreign object from his stomach. It was an incredibly frightening experience for us, but… Read the full review on Google (opens in new tab)

Good doctors and techs. Payment person is dour. They should allow clients to pay in the exam rooms through the techs with a portable card reader. It saves clients from having to deal with trying to pay AND take care of a pet on a leash. View on Google (opens in new tab)

We took our senior dog to OCH for his dental clean and I have nothing but only the most wonderful things to say about Dr. Osborne and Dr. Guerra, and the vet techs and the receptionists!
