Read What Our Clients Say

  • "We have been going to this veterinary clinic for 20 yrs, and the original Dr. Kim was amazing and actually prayed with all pets.
    I loved him and he saved 2 of our dogs lives.
    The now Dr. Kim is absolutely a great Vet and person, he treats your animals like we do "family" he is so compassionate and he doesn't try a milk you for money, if you can't afford certain things he helps to work around it.
    This establishment is THEE ONLY PLACE all of our fur babies have been, as has my family.
    I have recommended this vet to many and they are still taking their animals to him.
    The staff is amazing and all of the different techs over the 20 years have been very helpful and their knowledge is a plus
    I am actually taking my baby in today for his flea medication and I am taking my fur sister in for my mom passed and I promised her I would take good care of her
    Many Blessings to you all...

He's so patient and fully address our concerns, and let us know what our options are. Truly professional! I can see how much he cares, and I feel very confident that my dogs are under his care. Not to mention his staff are also very friendly and professional as well. I would definitely recommend this hospital for your loving pets."
