Great service, kind and compassionate humans who saved my sister's puppy from poisoning! Thank you Bright Eyes Staff from my heart ❤️
I was passing through from Ohio and one of my dogs went lame. Emily gave me great advice. I was upset because this road trip was a redo. When we tried this a month ago, my dog Thor had a stroke. We had to return home and have him put down. Thankfully it wasn’t anything like that this time. Thank you Emily!
I can't recommend this place. I had a dog that was put down here four years ago. I still think it was the right choice, but the vet was very impersonal. They gave me a few choices. All were bad. My dog was suffocating to death, but didn't offer being put down as a legitimate choice. When I asked if it might be necessary, they said it might be the best choice.

When my wife offers the simple, logical issue, only then do they oblige. I'm going to go elsewhere next time I have emergency vet needs.
My dog swallowed a 4-prong fish hook thanks to someone leaving stink bait on the ground along our walking route.

A different level of care could have easily meant multiple x-rays and an incision through my dog’s esophagus, which would have greatly increased surgery time, recovery time, and $$$ (the last thing you want to think about in this scenario). My bill was minimal given the serious nature of the injury and my dog was out of surgery in a little over 5 minutes under the knife. I could not recommend this clinic more emphatically. We received ex
I had a 4 week old kitten that I had been given on Friday evening. I realized it was extremely sick, but thought it could wait until offices opened up Saturday morning. So I did, and then realized that no one would even look at the kitten because I didn't have an appointment. I called them in a sort of panic because I thought this kitten may die on me without getting help soon, and there was no way it could wait until Monday. They told me to bring her in, and they noticed how badly she was doing and helped me immediately. In the end my options were $460 worth of hospitalization care because she needed oxygen or ~$200 worth of medicine to be given at home without much hope because she was having so much trouble breathing. I couldn't afford hospitalization and was worried that I would
