I am at ease from the minute I walk into the waiting room until the time I walk out the door to leave with my pup. The staff is so friendly and so patient, and the doctor is fantastic. I never feel rushed through our appointment and she is incredibly knowledgeable. I feel so lucky to have found St. Francis. Cooper does too!

Dr Rufano was amazing as always and the staff were generous with treats since my dog is super nervous. The staff held my dog and worked on the floor with him since he’s comfier there. Super considerate! Walked out with a successful and happy visit!

I realize that everything is going up in price everywhere. I was taken a bit back by the bill for this visit. It seems that some things are quite expensive and when discussing with the people I work with who are all pet owners, they all said it may be time to shop around. And I still need to come back for a recheck on Jake s ears which I may skip due to the cost. And Jake is due for his annual and shots in July so that will be another big bill.

Thank you for making our first experience at Saint Francis Hospital a pleasant one. It was great to see Dr. Polehinke again. We have been a patient of his for over 20 years. So it was like a reunion. It was amazing how Daisy actually recognized him. Diane & Wayne Bickelman and Daisy too ????

Since adopting my dog two years ago this was my first opportunity to accompany her into the examination room and meet her doctor. The entire staff was pleasant and helpful (as they usually are when I had to converse with them on the phone due to the pandemic). We did not have to wait at all. When I arrived a few minutes early they told me come on in. Great experience

I have been coming to this office for over 15 years and have always left feeling well connected with the staff. It felt different this time. I know Sophie is a senior dog and I felt her care was not the same. It felt rushed. I received a call about her bloodwork result but no specific results just the same as last time. Also was told then to bring in a urine sample which was not mentioned at my appointment and to just put it in my own container.Also results were report by office staff not the doctor. I guess things are just changing.

I am so happy I found St Francis. Everyone there is kind, caring and professional. Every aspect of my pet’s care has been thoroughly and simply explained to me. My dog is now a senior and his care is leaning to more of a palliative nature. I appreciate the staff’s guidance, assuring me that together we can make Ted’s senior years the best they can be.
