“The lovely people at Uptown Vets took care of my precious baby girl like she was their own. They were so kind, and called me to check up on her every day after the appointment.

“Amazing! I took my pup for his routine shots & a check up. At my previous vet, this type of visit was around $400. I paid less than $150 here, and the service was so much better! The techs, receptionists & vet were all so kind and welcoming. My pup hates the vet, but they did everything in their power to make him comfortable. I’m happy to say I found my new vet office and I’ll be a customer here for as long as possible. Definitely check this place out.” -Jeanelle France
