4.8 out of 5 from 331 Google reviews. A few recent ones, quoted as written:
★★★★★
It's all in the name. TLC veterinary gives you exactly that! We brought our puppy in to be spayed and were met by Heidi, vet tech and Dr. Haeussner. They left us feeling that our little one would be well and safe under there care and she was. They don't overcharge and they listen to any concerns and answer any questions we had. We recommend them very highly.
★★★★★
We have been going to TLC for 2 years now. Dr Lynch was amazing but the practice is in great hands with the other Drs after he retired. From appointment setting to exams to check out- we are so impressed!! Our English Bulldog can be complicated and they do a wonderful job! Highly recommend.
★★★★★
Love how they treated me and my new injured kitten on the same day. Everyone was so kind and friendly. My kitten needed a minor surgery and they explained everything, as well as the actual costs. They will be our new and ONLY vet hospital going forward!
