Haven’t been here in years and I’d never come back, but looking back at the records, this absolute disgrace not only charged 2-3 times the going price for every single thing he injected and stuffed down the throat of my (at the time) one year old dog, but he also charged for a rabies shot that we got for free at the town hall 5 days before he saw her that year. Avoid these scam artists like the plague!

So rude!!! My friend called about putting down her rooster, as he had been unwell for several days. Instead of a simple “no” they replied “Occasionally…on a dinner plate!” SO insensitive and unprofessional!! You should provide comfort. Why would you think that’s a normal thing to say?! SHAME ON YOU!! She and her husband had to deal with putting down their pet chicken on their own 😢

We have been bringing our dog here for about 5 years now and Dr. Taksir is a very condescending and dismissive vet. He tends not to listen to your concerns, speaks over you, and often makes presumptions about the way you care for your pets. In almost all cases, I felt like it was a cash grab situation even for a normal check up for an adult dog that has had all their puppy shots. If you're not careful and dont push back on his recommendations, you can easily leave with an 800 dollar vet bill for a normal check up. Most recently, my wife called to see if they could cull one of our sick roosters that had been struggling and was not recovering. I was away from home, and she was unable to do it on her own. Dr. Taksir openly mocked and laughed at her and said that the only chickens he sees are on his dinner plate. I understand that alot of people dont view chickens as pets but I felt this was very unprofessional. All he had to say was "No, we dont offer that service" I would only come here if I had no other option.
