Report
They were incredible we had an emergency with our cat and they were booked. They put me on a waiting list and within the hour they called and told me to come in. When I parked and called they had me come right away and put me in a room. The nurse came right away then the Dr. And they were affordable. Our cat was fine which was the good news but it was just so good to get such attention and care.

Our mischievous lab ate a diaper and was experiencing complications from that. They were able to get her in quickly and get her treated right away. They sent me adorable pictures of our fur baby along with some follow up on how she was doing. The care was excellent and everybody was compassionate and knowledgeable. Would definitely take our dogs there again if a situation arose.

Where do I begin- I have heard only negative from this place over May years of working in the veterinary service. I walked in with a friends dog in anaphylaxis seeking care. Denise was so sweet. She was the front of the business you want to walk into. She seemed new but had the confidence of a well seasoned receptionist. She is confident in how she speaks and was gentle and kind. Too notch! The vet I saw was wonderful and so helpful even as I was bringing in a friends pet. Highly recommend St. Francis.

After going through many vets this one was the greatest! The vet and vet tech were kind and comforting and let me help with exam to make my sick dog feel at ease. They were also very informative and talked with me and answered all of my questions. This office also put us down on a wait list and called us when they were ready for us so we didn't have to wait hours in the waiting room. The visit was easy, painless and quick. We were in and out with a treatment plan IN UNDER 2 HOURS. St. Francis is our new go to vet for sure!
