"Everyone at The Gentle Vet is incredible! They all truly care for your pets and strive to give the best possible care. They are always quick to respond to any questions or requests. Everyone takes the time to get to know your pet and make them as comfortable as possible."

"Our visit was wonderful. Everyone was so kind and gentle with my cat. Usually my cat tries to hide or run from the vet, but here he just lay on the table and let them look him over. I was very impressed with the kindness and respect for each animal and their temperament."

"Gentle Vet was able to see my mom’s cats as new patients on short notice while I was visiting from out of state! Knowledgeable, courteous and friendly staff."

"The Gentle Vet was amazing. As a Fear Free Certified professional myself, I am always looking for ways to help my crew feel their best. My senior kitty and I went to The Gentle Vet for the first time today and we had a great experience! We didn’t come across any dogs coming into the building, were greeted right away, and we waited less than a minute to be led into an exam room. Once inside the exam room, I removed the top of his carrier to allow him the opportunity to explore the room and get comfortable. They had a towel covering the exam table to prevent additional fear or stress, had calming music playing, and practiced gentle handling without using any restraint during his exam. He even enjoyed a nice brushing and a tube of Churu! We discussed pain management as I’ve recently noticed some changes in his behavior at home and towards our other cat. They recommended Solensia which is a once a month injection for pain. It eliminates the stress of daily oral medication! When it came time for his blood draw, they coaxed him out from under the chairs instead of forcing him out. They wrapped him in a towel, and even though he was vocalizing, he was eating every bit of his Churu and being a great patient. If your pet doesn’t like the vet, or shows signs of high anxiety, fear, or stress at or on the way to the vet, consider a Fear Free approach by coming here!"

"Very informative at providing information on our sweet boy Axel that we adopted through Maggie’s mission. They did all of his vetting prior to adoption and when it came time to provide our local vet with his records they were quick to respond and get the records sent over not only to myself but to the vet as well. Of course, I was running late and called while I was in the waiting room for a scheduled appointment so I was very appreciative and thankful they were able to provide info so quickly. Thank you visiting vet you have helped FOUR of Maggie’s dogs along the way that specifically have made it into their fur-ever home and part of our family that we love dearly. Thanks for all you do!!!"
