So far, Compassionate Care has been absolutely fantastic - seriously - they are great. We care…read morevery much about our pets, want the best for them and are proactive with their health / vet care. Our family used another vet in town for over two decades, but they started to really decline. The vets wouldn't see patients anymore. Instead, unqualified "techs" pretending to be DVMs were doing all the exams, procedures, attempting to diagnose and treat "patients" - everything. We were paying for DVM care, but not getting it and our pets were painfully suffering the consequences. After many SERIOUS mistakes made by their "techs", that could have been disasterous-it became obvious that it was a matter of time before one of ours ended up seriously hurt, or WORSE. I was very worried about leaving that clinic after so many years of trusting them, but it was honestly the very BEST choice we could have made. Compassionate Care is absolutely awesome. They are responsive, attentive and the competency of the entire staff is clearly superior. One of our dogs had been suffering for years with ear infections and we had spent hundreds with the old vet clinic trying to get it cleared up - we were in every month with the same issue. Dr. K immediately identified the problem and for the first time in YEARS, that pooch is now happy, comfortable and has clean, HEALTHY ears - you can tell he has finally found relief. I just SOO wish I'd come here much, much sooner. Very happy with the CC team and we are all extremely appreciative of everything they do- and I would strongly recommend them.

I started going to Cedar Heights by chance. It was 4 days after I got my 8 week old puppy. She…read morestarted acting sick and lethargic. At that point, I hadn't even decided which vet I wanted her to regularly see yet. I was panicking because my normal vet office that I took my cats to was closed (it was a Sunday) and I didn't want to wait until Monday to take her in. Cedar Heights was the only clinic open that Sunday. My dog saw Dr. Belle and was treated within an hour of calling them. The price was very reasonable considering the emergency visit and my puppy was acting playful again by the end of that night. From that point on (2 years ago) I decided to use Cedar Heights pet clinic, and transferred my cats' records there from my old vet clinic. Now my dog primarily sees Dr. Schaul at Cedar Heights (I think Dr. Belle mainly works at Brookside, which is affiliated?) Dr. Schaul is so friendly and knowledgeable. He explains everything in simple, easy to understand terms and answers all my questions. Dr. Belle has answered all of my emergency calls since my dog was a puppy -- and she's gotten quite a few from me. She's patient and understanding of my worries. I never feel like she's bothered with my concerns. The rest of the staff at Cedar Heights is simply amazing. They greet us with a smile and always make a point to give my dog the attention she craves when new people are around. Overall, I would not go anywhere else. Their prices are reasonable, the staff and doctors are reliable, and everyone is so friendly. Couldn't ask for more.

We initially went to Community Veterinary Clinc (CVC) because we thought she would have to be sedated. However the groomers took the time need to gain her trust, so they were able to do a full groom. Not only were they able to accomplish this WITHOUT sedation, but they gave her the best haircut she has had in a long time. My wife and I are extremely pleased and satisfied with the groomers at CVC. Dori came home perfectly groomed and HAPPY! The staff throughout the entire experience were welcoming and friendly. They were professionals without the snobbish attitude of some office staff. They only showed a genuine interest in you and your pets welfare. Would definitely recommend them to anyone, any time.

Do you love animals?…read more Of course you do! You have a Yelp account - which means you area living, breathing person; which means you have a soul (depending on your belief.) ((I'm not here to judge people, just places and sometimes things.)) If you not only love animals, but have animals, you may know the stress of going to a new/different veterinary clinic. I have utilized the same clinic since I was a child. I'm not going to tell you my birthday. It will just depress me, and I'm in 'positive review mode'. After much though, and tired of traveling over 90 miles one-way for small vet appointments like shots & check-ups, I decided it was time to take myself off the leash of nostalgia/hometown comfort. I decided to find a new vet that was near my home. I entered this process with skepticism and with little help from Yelp. (Not by their fault, but no one had left a review for the clinics I was considering.) I decided to use this new adventure as a reviewing opportunity. One that I do not regret! Community Vet Clinic is a fairly new establishment in the town that I live. I love their mission statement and dedication to community outreach that is pointed out on their profile. When I entered I was greeted promptly and with a friendly/welcoming demeanor. The vet, Dr. Pleis, was right up front to ask me questions and greet me and my pup. She had a staff member take my dog outside to try and get a sample while she explained to me what they planned to do in the check-up. She spoke with words that I could nod and understand; not just nod and think of different kinds of food I wanted to try after this visit. When they got ready to check out my dog's situation, the vet asked me if I would like to be in the room during the check-up. This was never something I had been asked before. Granted, most of my dog's check-ups are 'drop-off and leave' or during boarding. This was a nice little gesture. I accepted because it was my dog's first time here and it would be good to see how Dr. Pleis interacted with my pet. Dr. Pleis was incredibly gentle, kind, and kept open communication with her assisted staff and the dog itself. Even if my dog was noticeable uncomfortable, she would use soothing tones/language. She would use praise between shifts of body/areas of checking. After she got what she needed, she left briefly to review her samples. This took at a LOT more quickly than I thought it would! Dr. Pleis returned with results, a treatment plan, and also explained to me what I may expect. Again, she used a language I could comprehend. I was at the counter, checking out, in under 30 minutes! Lastly, she smiled, thanked me, and gave Luna a 'cookie' for being a good sport. Overall, this was an absolute, 100%, great experience. Not only did I feel reassured and comfortable, confident in Dr. Pleis's treatment plan but...ABOVE ALL... I think I found a vet I can take my dog too that is 9 blocks, not 90 miles, away. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IF: Truthfully, just in general, I recommend Dr. Pleis for your vet care needs. I would say, especially though, if you are like me. I was born & raised & accustomed to a 'small town' or 'rural' vet approach. The kind of place where you know the doctor by name. Where its feel is one of community service rather than a hospital or company operation. I really loved Dr. Pleis's set-up and approach and look forward to going to her continuously for my dog's care. (....I still will stop by my hometown one though...I mean, you need to say 'hi' once in awhile) :)
