Dr. Mitchell and the staff here at VCA are so caring and understanding. Our baby boy is very reactive and bringing him to the vet is stressful for all parties involved. But Dr. Mitchell has shown time and time again how much she cares for all fur babies and their parents! It isn't easy finding a vet that will take the time to get to know you and your pet who is a bit crazy, but she does without judgement! She has made every visit comfortable and we leave knowing we got the best care possible! Thank you so much for all you do!

Terrible experience here. No compassion or help. They don’t listen to concerns. Don’t go here

We love our new vet. They don’t try to sell you hundreds of dollars worth of service if the animal doesn’t need it. Very attentive and minimum wait time. Highly recommend.

Dr. Pearlman is a very compassionate professional. She always follows up with my pet and takes the time to sit with the client and the pet to go over history, diet, treatment, and future care. I couldn’t recommend her enough. As far as the office, the techs are very friendly and there are a lot of appointments available. Pricing here is on the higher end, but Dr. Pearlman is upfront with pricing and will not over charge for services. This is the best vet experience I’ve had. As an owner of an adopted hairless sphynx, my pet has dealt with long term illness due to her breed and past history. I’m so thankful that Dr. Pearlman was able to diagnose and treat my pet so she can live the rest of her life comfortably!

Our family loves Dr. Laurie. My father-in-law has been with this office for years and spoke so highly of Laurie. So I started coming here and then recommended my father who now also comes here! And I even found out my cousin uses this office too! A family affair lol Dr. Laurie has always been kind, gentle, understanding & super knowledgeable for all our pets. She has been with us through sickness, health and unfortunately a lot of deaths. Each time Dr. Laurie and the office staff have shown nothing short of compassion & thoughtfulness. We have personally seen her exceptional work with our medium sized dogs of mostly mixed pitbull/terrier breeds, our cats, my dad’s Rottie, and my cousins pits. Our one pit, Jade, had to be sedated to get her nails clipped and it was always a smooth visit. Tillie, the scaredy “dog” hides under the chairs in the exam rooms lol Dr. Laurie gets in the floor and sits with Tillie making sure she is ok and comfortable. I really appreciate how accommodating the office is, how friendly the staff are, and availability, No matter the breed, or animal this office is amazing. Thank you Dr. Laurie & staff!
