Extremely Disappointed with Recent Experience – Will Not Be Returning It’s incredibly disappointing to have to write this review after years of relatively good experiences at VCA Kirkwood Highway. Up until now, our dog had been seen by several of the female vets and techs at this location, and we had absolutely no issues. They were professional, patient, and always handled our dog with care—even complimenting how well-behaved he was, despite being a little hyper at times. Based on those prior visits, we had no reason to believe things would be any different this time. Unfortunately, we were very wrong. We brought our dog in for a routine nail trim, and the experience quickly went downhill. We made it clear from the start that he becomes extremely anxious when muzzled, and that if the tec

My last visit is two years ago. As I finally found a good vet, I could post my experience here. I don’t know why the google rate of this vet is high. I wish I could give a negative star. After reviewing a couple of comments I think this vet might be good at surgery or treating severe diseases. But the pets with light syndromes like my cat also deserve good treatment! Here are some facts that I think they are not professional, discriminating and disrespectful. 1. The medicine on their prescription is discontinued on all online pharmacies.

We took our kitten in for a check up and not only were the employees super kind and helpful but also informative & made the appt personable! Even sent us home with some freebies!

Outstanding veterinary care for our pup who fell ill while we were traveling. We were so stressed, and the staff there went above and beyond. They saw our dog that day, created a thorough treatment plan, and provided follow-up care on the following day. From the front office to the vet techs everyone was so compassionate, professional and knowledgeable. Drs. Arculus and Herman We're outstanding and spot on with their assessments. Our pup was feeling better in no time. Highly recommend this wonderful place!
