We both feel very comfortable with the care of our Tucker by everyone in the office. Everyone is polite and attentive and realize we are neurotic with our dog and accepts us with this flaw. Wish Tucker was as happy as we are but he shakes, no fault of the doctors or staff. Our sincere thanks to all.

The doctor recommended very costly procedures that we followed up on with a cardiologist. He presented so many scenarios and was still wrong. I do not recommend this facility. Cost me thousands upon thousands of dollars to treat an issue that this doctor couldn’t diagnose. It felt like to me, he really wanted me to spend as much money as possible rather than looking for the root cause and more simple solution to my dog’s issues.

I always feel comfortable and confident bringing my pets to St. Francis . I know that I will be listened to and my concerns addressed. I also know that everyone will go out of their way to make my pet as comfortable and relaxed as possible- not always easy with a rescue animal-and that they will receive the best possible care.

The absolute best veterinarian facility I have ever used...every single person on that staff is friendly, concerned and understanding, from the receptionists to the vet techs to the vets. I m so glad I found them years ago and they re so close to my house. Even if they weren t I would still use them...they are worth a drive!!
