We help with shelter fosters in a very rural county. We just switched to this veterinary clinic a few weeks ago. We have nothing but paw-sitive things to say about this place.

I'm so happy we found this vet for our dog. In the past it's been hard finding a vet we trusted with the care our dog, but we're so glad Dr. Rogers is just down the road and that she is so passionate and knowledgeable about her profession. Taking our dog to our old vet used to… Read the full review on Facebook (opens in new tab)
My dog is a shelter rescue, with trust issues. She is snarly, and snaps at new humans. The professionals here literally had her eating out of their hands. View on Facebook (opens in new tab)
