What your neighbors say…

Walnut not only treated me with all the care and respect but also my two kitty’s! They are so knowledgeable! Shout out to Kristina. She is a tech there and helped me through all my financial pet decisions also answered all the questions I had! Great clean facility. 10/10 recommend. Deven We take our two year German Shepherd to see them and everyone is so kind and seem to really care about our baby. Our girl was very uncomfortable at her last vet but at WC she thought everyone was her friend. If she's happy, we're happy. Adrienne Amazing people! One of our dogs has always been terrified of vets and needed anxiety medication and muzzling just for checkups. Her vet took the time to get her comfortable and now she goes in happy and no longer needs any medication or a muzzle. And she loves the treats. Paniyn Love the entire staff here! They treat my babies like their own and take time to explain anything that might need to be done or to watch for! From the front desk to the docs everyone is amazing!!!! Jessica Dr Bauer and her staff had my baby hospitalized for almost 5 days, and I cannot thank them enough for caring for and loving our baby while she was there. They did an amazing job saving Roxy from Parvo, we are so thankful for their services. I know it's their job, but they all went above and beyond to make sure our baby came home healthy. Thank you. You guys are awesome. Stephanie Best vet in the area! I love Dr. Bauer and she treats my pets as if they were her own! Very reasonable prices too. I would recommend these guys over anyone else! Athena We love this clinic and staff!! Dr. Barone has been very patient and helpful!! We have also boarded our dog there several times and she always comes home happy and clean!!" -Amy "All of the vets here are amazing. I have taken both dogs and will continue too. Aaron the vet tech is so great with our dogs and they LOVE him! Sierra Very professional, love the app, the staff was very friendly and loved my 2 girls. They took great care of them and the Dr. gave me solid advice. I'm so glad we were referred to this vet. All my animals will be coming here for their care. Shonda Lovitt Love this place, very professional workers and you can tell they love their job and love animals. Always very helpful and listen to your concerns. Reasonable prices and well worth it. Your fur babies will love it there. Casey Chamberlain The medical staff do a wonderful job, especially having to contend with Covid 19. I appreciate that we have a team that takes card of our pets needs. Luckily we do not have any major issues right now but we know when we do they will be in good hands. Crystal Thomas 3 times now we've had to use them to help send a suffering fur baby over the rainbow bridge. They have been amazing every time, even when it's been right before closing time or right before a weekend. They have a wonderful & caring staff that try to make a horrible time a little less tragic. Rori Barnes Very thankful for this veterinarian! From the front desk to the doctor, we could not be more happy with the excellent care our fur babies receive! Keep doing what your doing - excellent care, service, and personal touch. We love it here! We pass other Vets on the way to Walnut Creek and drive 25 minutes to get here. Give it a try, it’s so worth the drive to get this kind of care for your fur babies. Wendi
