Review from Cameron O.

I would like to comment this vet for providing care to the family dog during his end of days. They provided honest and heart-felt suggestions and didn't lead me down the garden path as to the the reality of the situation.
They are generally open a lot and the vet went above and beyond trying to find the right surgeon to help but alas it was too late for my poor old friend.
The sad news is that my dog is no more. An aggressive cancer got him after 14 years.
I would highly recommend this clinic as they clearly love animals and have the animal's best interest in mind rather than their pocket book. -

Easy to get an appointment, and you actually talk to the vet, not the tech. They also don't make you wait for ages, and the vets are actually on schedule. Such a treat! I also appreciated not being rushed, and feeling like the vet was actually listening to what I was asking.
I consider this clinic a NON PILL PUSHING one, unlike certain other vet clinics in the area. They're also understanding of alternative feeding methods (ie. raw diet), which is a vet relationship deal-breaker for me.
I recommend this clinic to all dog owners, who lack trust in vet dr/clinics, due to previous experiences -- they'll help you believe again! -

My dog needed needed his rabies shot as well as another booster so I brought him to the Front Street Animal Hospital simply because it's located near where I live. When I called for an appointment the girl who answered the phone was very pleasant and informative.
Because this was my dog's first visit to this vet he had to have a general exam in addition to the vaccines. The total cost for the exam, rabies shot, and two other shots (I forget what they were for) was about $130. The exam included nail trimming which was great because they did a much better job than where I had been taking him.
The clinic is very clean and everyone that works there fawned over my little dog. Perhaps they do this for all the animals that come in, but I think he liked the attention. The doctor explained everything to me and let be be in the room for the vaccines. He then had to take my dog to a separate room for a vaccine given in the nose (ouch) and to have his nails clipped.
When my dog had a small allergic reaction to one of the vaccines I called the clinic and left a message with the receptionist. The vet called me back without delay and told me to come in and he'd take a look at him. -

My cat (http://twitpic.com/paiha) used to have bad breath. He also used to have skin problems. He used to lick himself in his bathing suit area until there were bare patches where there used to be fur. He was a sad sight, and you could smell him across the room.
Enter Front Street Animal Hospital.
The good:
- It's close to where I used to live.
- They really like my cat and when he escaped from the exam room they weren't too stressed about where he could get to.
- They tricked him into getting in his cat carrier without incident (usually... this comes with incident).
- They clipped his nails while he was under the anesthetic getting his teeth pulled.
The cons:
- It's far from where I live now.
- The cat food they have convinced me to buy for him is very expensive compared to grocery store cat foods and they never have big bags of old fat cat food in stock so I have to go back more often because his food only comes in little bags.
I would take Fins here anytime he needed to see a vet. I like them, they have debit and take credit cards and they showed genuine affection towards my cat.
