List 21 Doctor of Medicine (MD) near Port Orchard, WA

JULIANS LIFE It’s been 2 ish years since we had Dr.Hulst. But here I am, coming back to leave this review. As a new parent, I had no idea that you’re suppose to have a doctor ready to go for your new sweet baby. And thank goodness we found Dr.Hulst. We found her so fast because she was new to the area and looking for new patients. And we were LUCKY to have her. I kinda wish I was able to bring her with us when we moved out of state. She’s very straight forward and if she gets your humor, she can be very very funny! When she’s done some procedures for my child, she was great and fast to getting it done. We sure do miss her! Thankful that we had her for our sons first year! Thank you Dr.Hulst. Our boy is big 3 year old and healthy.

Kitta Zakholy She is a very nice doctor. We appreciate that she listens and gives us a choice. Vaccines or not she listens and will treat your child with respect. She understands children. We look forward to our future visits. So happy to have found her.

Jessica Mallard Dr. Hulst and her assistant Kelly are amazing. They have always been attentive, kind, empahtic and thorough when it comes to addressing the needs of my children. I am grateful for them and would reccomend their care without hesitation.

Nora Bennett Dr. Hulst is the best doctor Ive worked with in a very long time. She is responsive, compassionate, and down to earth. She gives solid advice and is always willing to answer our questions. Highly recommend her as a pediatrician!

Allie Wallitner I have had the pleasure of dealing with Dr. Paik for several years now and just have to write a review. Both my parents and my Aunt are patients of Doctor Paik. His care and concern for each one of them is above and beyond anything I have experienced before (and I have had some excellent Doctors). He has called after hours in several instances because of his true concern. Kitsap County is lucky to have such an excellent Physician. His nurse Lindy is pretty amazing too!

April Myers Since our mom died and I brought brother to Washington, Dr. Paik has cared for my brother who has schizophrenia, Down’s Syndrome and pervasive developmental disorder. Through it all this kind wonderful doctor has not only been patient but given the extra effort to help him where he could. His nurse Lindsey is also 1 in a million. When you consider the kind of pressure doctors are under today, it is truly amazing to find someone who cares like he does. God bless Dr. Paik!

Nevie Huk If youre lucky enought to have this man as your physician, know you are in good hands! Ive never seen such an expert at his craft. He is compassionate, caring and above all, competent! Doctor Paik goes above and beyond and I have never, in my career or personal life, met such an amazing provider.

Beth Brown He called me from home on New Years Eve to check on me and got my vm so he called backed the next day. How cool is that?!?! Never had that happen before...

Jim Coleman Dr. Paik is the best doctor I have ever had. No question about it. I hope he remains with the Doctors Clinic for a long, long time.

Merry Crawford Excellent doctor. Very knowledgeable and attentive

Kayla Deann Does her research and takes time explaining everything. Addresses all concerns with feedback and solutions. She makes our whole family feel welcome

Cierra Gilley Ive had a few different Doctors and by far he is the best .... He actually listens to you and CARES and figured out the best option for each problem. He never makes me feel Im over reacting to any of my problems I see him for HE IS THE BEST and u never have to wait long at all to be seen .

Liz Amazing bedside manner. Will answer all your questions, even if theyre not related to what your being seen for and not rush you through. Quick with the rx refill requests.

jaclyn weber My dog was sick and she was very old. I was sad because I knew that euthanasia was the best thing for her but I felt guilt. She had a wonderful life. I called 2 vets near my home, I had just moved to the area. The first vet I called showed no sympathy in and at first wanted to set an appointment for the next month. I really didnt like that. They offered the next Saturday but that wasnt soon enough for my dog. I then called All Creatures, and they were very sympathetic to me over the phone and when I showed up the next day, Dr. Little spent almost an hour with us and has a very good bedside manner that most vets lack. He was very caring towards us and handled our needs in the most sensitive way, it couldnt have gone any better. I recommend Dr. Little to anyone who needs a veterinarian.

Jessica Finch The staff at Willow tree animal hospital is extremely competent as well as compassionate when it comes to caring for animals. We have brought all three of our animals to Willow tree over the years. When facing a tough decision with our 18-year-old cat, the staff was very clear with us on what to expect in trying to save him as well as what his short and long-term health would look like. I would recommend veterinary hospital to anyone who needed good quality care for their pets.

Luella2u Weve only had good experiences here. We had senior cats and they provided end of life care and supported us during and after euthanasia. Very caring people. I highly recommend them.

Jeff Miranda This team is amazing! Even when our girl who was not feeling well and eventually passed, they took care of her like a princess. While I could not be there during her final days, the staff took care of her like the princess she was!!! They truly care about all the animals they see!!

Casey Schwitzer I am so relieved and excited to have found this establishment! I called in to schedule in my dogs neuter and they were able to get me scheduled in about a month later with a deposit. The cost was incredibly reasonable given the amount of work that was done. Trish, Amanda & Dr. Thomas texted us daily for updates on our boy and calmed any of our concerns and explained what to look out for. Instructions were clear and easy to understand. Everyone from their staff was pleasant. Thank you Willow Tree for the great work. I will be recommending you to everyone I know!

Debra Rygg Honestly, you dont need to look any further. The doctors and the staff here are absolutely wonderful. They are kind, caring and helpful. When I first went there several years ago I was in horrible pain and could barely walk. Dr Sansen was able to relieve some pain in that first visit. It took a little while but she helped me heal. I continue to see her twice a month for maintenance. When I tell you she cares, I mean it. Any time Dr Sansen learns something new in her practice, she will have an after hours free class where she teaches and shares what she learned.

Leanna Kitsap Chiropractic is amazing! Dr Sansen always does a great job on my back and the front desk team is so friendly and kind. I also appreciate the flexibility with my appointments and swift communication with the front desk staff over text if I need to change anything. My neck and back have been feeling so much better since I started going, such a life improvement!

William My dad was in March 5 and it didnt do anything for him he felt the same way as when he walked in The actuator didnt do a darn thing it bounced not recommended I would highly go somewhere else

Bobbi Erickson I have been a patient for 30 years and I highly recommend anyone with any back issues, etc to find out for themselves. I suffered with 3 to 4 migraines a week plus a swallowing problem due to a car accident back in 1978. In that 30 years, I have had maybe 5 headaches. In other words, a flat out miracle.

Devyn Wolfe I was having severe sacral pain to the point where I thought I had done permanent damage. After my 3rd or 4th visit (within the first week) I started noticing a huge difference in my mobility and my pain was decreasing significantly. I had been adjusted manually before and I didn’t see results like I have with Dr. Sansen. I love all the staff in the office. They are all so kind. One thing that kind of surprised me is when you’re getting adjusted and they are asking you questions about your pain, they leave the doors open and everyone can see and hear what’s going on. I know if you didn’t feel comfortable with that and you voiced that feeling they would probably accommodate and shut the doors during your appointment. Overall, I’ve had an awesome experience and I highly recommend this place!

Breanna Knight I had my first appointment with Dr. Caulkins and I have never been more impressed with a Dr. He actually listed and cared about taking care of my needs. He didn’t rush me or make me feel like I was taking/wasting his time. I felt heard and valued. Tammy is the Lab is a hoot and a half! She had me laughing the whole time and made it a pleasurable experience to be stabbed in the arm with a needle. This is what exceptional care looks like.

Cheryl Parker I have been seeing Dr. Caulkins for 35 years. He is like family. He has saved my life 3 times. He is the best. Now, unfortunately I have say goodbye. I have had a parasitic infection for 11 years, and now it has spread to an unbearable degree. He admits he is unable to treat it nor is he able to refer me to another Doctor or Secialist. am 71 and I can no longer live with this. I am forced to find another family Doctor. Goodbye Dr. Caulkins and staff. I will miss all you guys. You will still be seeing my husband. Thank you for everything! Cheryl Lee (Caudill) Parker)

Ashlee Reese Dr. Robert Caulkins has been the best pediatric doctor for our family. Our son was born with a rare eye condition and even though other specialists kept telling me he did not have it, Caulkins wa always validating to my sense of concern. My son ended up needing surgery out of state. Caulkins went out of his way to call the surgeon in Texas to make sure we were getting the best care. Hes always been warm and empowering. Hes always taken the trime to help me understand vaccinations, reason for care procedures, etc and he never pressured us. We value his insight greatly.

Taynak Best Doctor I have ever known. Dr. Caulkins helped me figure out why I couldnt lose weight after trying everything possible for losing weight. He also helped me understand my Diabetes and that I was insulin resistant. After working with him for the last 6 months, I have lost nearly 100lbs. and my A1c is down nearly a full point. This doesnt even cover my wife, whose A1c was almost 11 and is now on a trajectory downward to normal levels and is currently 3 points down. Her Fasting BS is now in the 90-100 range were it used to be over 600. She has lost 35 pounds in the last 6 months. Dr. Caulkins also helped me understand other problems that I had and got me on the appropriate medications for that. Dr. Caulkins will be our Family Doctor for as long as possible, until he retires.

Jason B Im not a Kaiser member, but my grandparents are and I take them here often. The whole place is nice, and is pretty wheelchair accessible, the staff working the counters are quick, and the walking path around the facility is a pretty decent way to pass some time while waiting for my grandparents many, many appointments. The only complaint Ive got is that their upstairs/front handicap parking is at a really weird spot thats not particularly useful to people who cant walk too well or need a wheelchair.

Gina Hedrick The Physical therapists at Select Physical Therapy are outstanding. Megan did an awesome job evaluating me. Kassandra noticed something that I was about to do wrong and quickly corrected it. Jade, a new therapist, is also very good at communicating with me. Best experience I have ever had in Physical Therapy!

Judy Honsowetz Heather is such a great help. Shes knowledgeable and very friendly. She has definitely helped me with my sciatica. And we are working towards solving my other issues.

James Clapsaddle I do not plan or want to get hurt. But in the event that I do get hurt. Select Physical Therapy is where I always request to go. The front staff great you with a smile, helpful, check you in even when they are busy, and have a short conversation with you. The therapists that I have had have been wonderful. They listen to what you say with no second guessing, and get to work on your treatment. Their ways of treatment are very effective. They know what they are doing. You can tell they enjoy and have the passion for their career path. This latest time I had to go back for more physical therapy. One of the ladies was on extended leave. They temp hired a physical therapist contractor to fill the spot. I have had the enjoyment of working with her. She fits in as if she has worked there for sometime now. You would think with a contractor that they are just there to fill a spot. She is not like that. She knows what she is doing. She reads your body language, hears comments, and quickly adapts if needed. You can see the enjoyment she gets helping people. I like this place and feel comfortable here. I have built some good client relationships. One big plus about Select Physical Therapy. They are Veteran friendly and accept Tri Care West that the Veterans Affairs uses.

gina switzer Megan got straight to the root of my issue. Her treatment is focused and challenging but not too much. She gives great explanations for what she is doing and why. She listens.

Diana Megan is great at deep tissue treatment! She listened to me and didnt over do it. She recommended exercises for me to do at home but cautioned not to over do. She was very professional and kind.

Hannah Erickson My first time at Kitsap Eye Physicians, but I thoroughly enjoyed it! Staff was welcoming and explained everything clearly, and I really enjoyed my visit with Dr. Gagnon. He was easy to talk with, and explained things really well. I am looking forward to our next appointment next year!

Robert Drolet I am a patient of Dr. Sorensen. On Wednesday, I had a 9:30 appointment for an annual eye exam. Upon arrive, the receptionist told me "there is no doctor today" She looked me up on her computer and said "I have no record of your appointment for today." My wife and I drove from Port Townsend for the appointment. I have an appointment card which I include below. The trip took 3 hours in total. When I told this to the receptionist she said "go out for breakfast." Hopefully, this will never happen again.

Christine B. Ive been a patient with Kitsap Eye Physician for years now; my husband and I changed to them many years ago when my parents were patients, weve stuck with them because of being well cared for, and the staff at KEP are genuinely friendly and accommodating. I wish I could name everyone who works; unfortunately, the only two names that come to mind are Rhonda and my Doctor, Dr. Gagnon. Rhonda is part of the front office staff and is considered a long-timer. Shes funny, attentive, and caring, overall an extraordinary person. I have never seen her rude or distant with anyone. If she has a bad day (which Im sure she does, she is human), Ive never witnessed it. And when I have seen her grocery shopping, shes just as friendly as she is in the office! Dr. Gagnon, hes professional but friendly, good-natured, caring, has excellent bedside manners, and seems pretty down to earth to my husband and me. The facility is clean; the restroom is clean with no odd smells or odors. Every room I have been in has always been orderly and tidy. Ive never witnessed a messy parking lot either. If you need a new optometrist, consider Kitsap Eye Physicians; honestly, you wont be disappointed! Kitsap Eye Physicians location is at 2655 Wheaton Way, Bremerton, Washington. They are on the corner of Callahan Drive & Wheaton Way. They are a stand-alone building that share it with Olympic Peaks Optical. They offer an ample amount of parking spaces. I have never used Olympic Peaks Optical there for, I am unable to voice my opinion on them. Visit Kitsapeye.com "Thank you, everyone, for continuing to support all of our local businesses and jobs, and please be kind to ALL living things!"

Gary Fisher The ophthalmologist was extremely thorough. I very much appreciated that.

Whitney Booking into February. How is anyone supposed to be seen for any eye issues that require not waiting 5 months?

Lindsay Crichton They finished their renovations recently! The staff here are all very friendly and helpful. My cat is treated very well every time he is brought here, though if you asked him he would rate any vet -100000 out of 5. Picture related; dramatic kitty.

Manny Staff were very friendly pricing very nice compared to other ones Ive been with and theyre willing to help with cost. They were very tentative with my dog and went over and beyond their way with customer service and the care of my dog period will definitely be going back and recommended this to anyone that needs Animal Care

Carl and Marci Wiegand Absolutely love this clinic and staff. Very professional staff and knowledgeable. Prices are reasonable and this clinic is not affiliated with any nationwide veterinary clinics so theyre able to keep prices low. Glad to have switched clinics and wish I had done it sooner

Paige Forhan Always have a great experience here with my 10 year old pup. Dr. Claire has been nothing but supportive, sweet, and gentle with my pup. They do a good job keeping him separated from other animals due to reactivity and previous dog attacks. His skin allergies are better, and he has a great quality of life now that weve been able to treat some issues long-term. Also, they listened and accommodated when I didnt want to use a muzzle with my slightly anxious pup - they let me bear hug him during shots instead. Would recommend!

K B These guys are really great- super patient, very attentive to pets’ needs. We brought our high-anxiety GSD that is a lot of dog to handle, they worked with him to help him become comfortable without being rushed, were very considerate in what they did to perform care throughout. What really stands out- they keep themselves accountable and stand by their business, and folks like that are who deserve a place in the community- being able to trust your pet’s provider is so critical in a world full of churning (that we’ve experienced firsthand elsewhere multiple times over). Thank you for the great care, Bayview!

Chelbi Park Dr. Liz and her staff are awesome. She has been my vet for 6 years now. She truly cares for all the animals that come through her doors. Shes diagnosed a few things that my prior vets had missed in my senior dog and hes so much happier since being in her care. Ive gone to many vets since becoming a dog owner, from moving around, and this is the only place that I dont have to literally drag my dogs in through the door. The lobby feels like a living room so its really inviting and creates a calming environment.

Christine Lauerman Port Orchard Animal Clinic is simply wonderful. I know first hand that Dr. Liz and her team will take amazing care of your pets. My cat trusts and adores her, and he loves to go there. Dr. Lizs calm demeanor, expertise and skill shine when she examines and treats her patients. She has been our vet for many years, and I highly recommend her not just because she is experienced and knowledgeable, but because she really cares about her patients and their pet parents.

Emma Veritas Dr Liz and her team have always done such an amazing job with my precious boy, Lord Rocky Cuddle Bear. Not only does he receive the absolute best care but he gets all the love and gentleness that he deserves. He has a myriad of issues but I know that when I take him to Port Orchard Animal Clinic they take everything into account so that like helping one thing doesnt mess up another. The level of care and compassion is truly incredible, he starts whining in excitement as soon as we turn onto Bethel Road and cant wait to go see his friends. Much of the reason we chose Port Orchard as where to live is so he can be close to Dogtor Liz and her team.

Terri Nakamura Dr. Liz and her team are very experienced and knowledgeable when it comes to little fur babies. I love that they are so loving and spoils my Pono. I would highly recommend this clinic, they have addressed all my concerns and will call me back right away when I have questions.

Sandy Pitcher Dr Frandsen and his medical team are always pleasant and welcoming. Their knowledgeable care and personal caring are exemplary and so much appreciated by myself and my husband. Dr. Frandsen is not just my doctor, he is my friend.

D H My husband and I both see Katelyn Neufeld and she is fabulous. She really takes time to listen and then follows through quickly. The office staff is outstanding, always friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend Sound Health Care!

Amanda I see Katelyn Neufeld and I think she is fabulous. She easy to talk to and I feel well taken care of. The front staff are very friendly and professional. There have been some hiccups but they have always worked it out and succeed in making it a welcome place.

logdesignnw Annual check up. Very much enjoy knowing that I will be seeing the same physician every visit, year in and year out. With Fransiscan we were never able to keep the same physician as they kept leaving. The care from Dr Frandsen is in-depth and he is always faithful to ask detailed questions I forget about or never think of. Plus he doesn’t try to push prescriptions on me. He respects natural and healthy healing choices.

Sharon Ewing For my first appointment, I saw Katelyn Neufeld, and was very impressed with her. She was thorough, and I appreciated her for taking her time to find out about me.

S T Dr. Dawson has been so amazing and caring towards me. Im not used to this level of concern. Ive lived in about 8 states or so. No one compares. I dont know what I would do without her, right now.

Mary Ann Dalich Dr Dawson has been my primary doctor since 2019. She has always been an excellent listener has helped me navigate so many health problems. She never dismisses any concerns, offering to refer me to specialists if needed or try a new drug if prescribed something I don’t like or isn’t working as hoped. Her office is shared with several other doctors and is run efficiently for both the doctors and lab. I can get blood drawn directly there and she gets results quickly. I’d recommend her as a first stop for anything outside of emergency.

A. Evans Dr Dawson is on time, shes very personable and helpful. Tosha her assistant is also. She shows a human compassion, that is missing in some Drs offices. She is a little bit of a drive for me, but well worth it. Five stars for sure.

Cate Osborne Dr. Dawson is absolutely the best doctor I’ve ever had. She listens patiently to my concerns and addresses them as needed. I have never felt stressed out about seeing her like I was with my previous practitioner. I feel extremely lucky to have her as my doctor.

Kathy Patterson She is excellent and listens to her patients. At one time, she was my mothers doctor (when mother was in her 90s) my daughters doctor ( when my daughter was in her mid 30s) and my doctor (in my 60s) at the same time. She did well with each of us. My only reason for leaving is because I am moving to another state.

Shirl B After being rescheduled for two appointments, three altogether, the staff called to say they wouldnt be able to see me because my referral was from another eye care business and not from my primary care physician. It sure would have been nice if they would have told me this when I called the first time and not nearly two months later. Not sure who is running this office , but I sure dont appreciate being on hold for twenty minutes. Its nearly impossible to speak with anyone, and there is no email listed.

Lovely Leshun The staff are super unfriendly annd unwelcoming . Every time myself or a family member has had an appointment the staff was very condescending and a very rude attitude. Im no longer giving them our business.

Sabrina Pace The staff are super unfriendly. Every time I call the lady who answers just has a very condescending rude attitude. Im no longer giving them my business.

Nova S. I called with a few questions, and the lady on the phone was extremely unfriendly and unhelpful... Unfortunately, the receptionist has the ability to set the tone from the get-go, and this was not a positive experience. I would not recommend this clinic.

James Tatum I have been calling Port Orchard office for several days. I just get an answering machine and the only option is to leave a message. So I left a message for a call back to schedule an appointment. No one bothers to call me back. So I drive to the office and ask to make an appointment with my optometrist (Dr. Sorensen) and I am told that she and all other optometrists are booked pretty far out and I wouldn’t be able to see Dr. Sorensen until June 6 (2 months!!). Very disappointing to say the least.

GL Veteran here, the VA might help me in a few weeks... Bremerton dental is helping me right now. No insurance, but they got me right in and are taking great care of me. Everybody working here is wonderful. Thank you so much to the whole team here! I cant say enough good things about this dentist.

Jerry K I know youre not going to believe me when I tell you I love my dentist, but it is true. I love going to Bremerton dental. Im always recognized when I come in, I am promptly taken to the back for my procedures, and always treated with a warm and friendly atmosphere. Dr Jones and Deanna, are the very best. Dr Jones has hands like velvet you do not even feel the needle going into your jaw to numb you up. I just about fall asleep when I come to my dentist. Deanna always make sure that youre comfortable, and treated extremely well, she really is very concerned about your overall comfort when you come in to see the dentist. There are not enough stars in this survey to give them. For anyone who has a problem going to a dentist I highly recommend you come to Bremerton dental. They will work very hard to make sure that you are dental insurance is taken care of, I have never had a billing problem. And I know from talking to other patients while waiting to go back, that they will work with you if you need help with taking care of financial problems so you can take care of your dental health Your dental care is there priority! Your health and well-being is their second priority. So I highly urge you if you need dental Care to schedule an appointment and come find out for yourself. For me when I am extremely happy with how I am treated, I use Google to post an excellent review for that person or place. honestly in my opinion its far better than giving someone a cash tip for great service, youre telling the whole world how happy you are with that person or place. Very respectfully A very happy patient.

Hector Garcia I had the most excellent experience working with Doctor Russel and staff! They took care of me and made me feel right at home. The pricing was very affordable and I had a lot of work to be done! If you’re seeking a great smile and great dental expertise, I highly recommend this clinic!

Lori Preus I went to Bremerton Dental yesterday for the first time. I was sooo impressed. From the lovely women at the front desk to my new dentist, Dr. Nanduri. I came in with a mouthful of issues. Liz gently took my X-rays, no pain. Then the doctor came in. She listened to my long history of dental work and came up with a doable plan for me. I needed a tooth pulled. That was done so quickly, and pain free, I didn’t believe Dr Nanduri was finished. She was! Thank you Bremerton Dental!!!

J Lonergan I am very pleased with this dental office. I first came in the other day as my cap popped off a tooth. I then decided that after the great and fast help, to finally finish my teeth. I knew I had a few cavities that I hadnt fixed previously. Was able to get done with ease. Dr Silva even fixed a botched job I had done in Nogales when I lived that way. Im so excited to have found this office! Everyone is very friendly, and they dont make you feel any sort of self conscious. Which is a big deal in my book. Ive had a couple of terrible experiences in the past, and that has added to my not fixing things in a timely manner; which cost me dearly.

La Lanea Beach It was the best it could be. My boy gets so anxious out being at the vet. But the tech he had was very nice and did her best to make him feel about his visit.

Dave B We moved to Port Orchard and searched for a new vet for our dog. We saw a good profile on their website and scheduled a visit. We were greeted promptly and taken quickly to an exam room. The vet tech was excellent getting the intake info and was gentle with our dog. Dr. Emily was in shortly after and did her exam. PO our dog is nervous around vets any the pair navigated it very well. Follow up after the visit has been very thorough as well. Very happy with our first visit!

Lindsy Anderson Veterinary staff were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. However, I was sold product that was difficult to administer to pets. And when I pulled into the parking space where I was instructed to park, I ran over the concrete barrier (that should not have been placed where it was) and damaged the bumper of my car. It cost $100 to repair. Otherwise, it was a gratifying experience and my cat Shine is soooo much happier. That makes it all worth it. Thank you

Shannon Davis Dr Zimmerman is amazing! She took time to listen to my concerns and allowed me to bring my other baby that I was concerned about who didnt have an appointment. I just love their staff!

Marie Lange Thank You Nicole at the Front Desk today helping us get an immediate appointment. You’re amazing. You differently went the extra mile for us and Sophie! Dr Eli is Amazing. She is the Best Ever!! Thank you so much ML. Sophie said 10 paws Up Everyone!

Beth McKennon Friendly and caring. From arrival to completion all staff were great and loving toward my pet. This is wonderful as he can get nervous. This visit he stayed calm. Thank you to all.

Mary S Two words, “RIP OFF!” We took our cat in to get pre-surgical blood work to get her spayed, which cost $200 and didn’t give us an estimate on how much the surgery would be. I called later and they gave an estimate of $628-$800 for a 10 month old spay!!! They are crooks, don’t take your animals here. After reviewing the paperwork my cat doesn’t even meet the minimum weight requirement to get the surgery, but did they tell us that? No. The receptionist told me that it costs about a $1000 to get a cat spayed. Jeff is lying in his response, the amount that I paid on the 25th is not included in the estimate. I asked for an estimate on how much I would pay when I dropped her off for the surgery.

Jessica Rudolph I have a very reactive dog, she is the sweetest girl but very weary of strangers and has a habit of growling/barking/lunging at strangers and other dogs. I was worried about bringing her to another vet (she grew up in a vet hospital as i work in animal emergency and she comes to work with me) for her vaccines due to her serious case of stranger danger. I’m not sure the original nurses name but she did everything perfectly to get sage to warm up to her, kept her distance and used baby talk and treats and got down on the floor with her. I’ve never seen sage warm so quickly to a new person especially in a strange environment. the doctor was great and made sure not to push her boundaries during the exam. the only downside is there’s no vet professional discount like some of the other hospitals offer nearby. But honestly, i’d rather take my pets to someone who makes them feel comfortable rather than save a few dollars. I’ll be bringing all of my pets here for their wellness care!
