At Pacific Veterinary Hospital, we take pride in the positive experiences our patients have with us. Here's what some of our satisfied clients have to say:
- "The best people, both doctors and staff. My dog was losing chunks of hair, leaving bald spots, and suffering from dandruff and skin irritation. Dr. Laura Bukowski was amazing! She was straightforward, had a plan ready by the end of our visit, and didn't feel rushed. We went home satisfied, and not even a week later, our dog was doing much better." - Wayne Waterman
- "We loved our first visit at Pacific Veterinary Hospital. The entire staff was welcoming, friendly, and provided an amazing experience overall.
