Animal Health & Surgery Center

They were wonderful here. I was happy to see Dr. Garrison. She was my Vet for a few years at Myrtle Ave Vet. She also did some emergency services on my Aussies, when she had her emergency Vet clinic in Eureka. I really admire her and she has a genuine caring soul. I was in a stressful time of my life and my elderly dog got ill and needed to be put down. I usually go to Broadway Animal Hospital in Eureka. Well a friend highly recommended this office. I called and got a quote. It was $100 less to have my little dog put down and cremated , then it was at Broadway Animal. Since I was having financial hardships and going through a major life change. I decided to take my good friends advice and take him there. I was immediately greeted by staff and it made me feel special and know that they really cared about my dog and my grieving. A Vet tech immediately came into the room. No waiting at all. He was kind and sweet as ever. Then Dr. Garrison walked in. Oh I was so relieved to see her. She remembered me and I then felt at ease. They did the procedure and he went to sleep and it was very peaceful. I had him wrapped in a blanket that my Great Grandmother crocheted and myself and my older sister and my 2 daughters were brought home from the hospital in it. When he passed in my arms on my chest, he had soiled the blanket. Dr. Garrison told me they would wash it and make sure it was given to me with his ashes, when they were to be picked up. As I was standing in line to pay the bill. I had my sunglasses on and tears rolling down my cheeks. A nice young woman walked into the office and came up to me and just hugged me. It was so sweet. Then another woman in the office with her cat came over and did the same. It was a blessing and made me realize there are strangers who still care.

Dr. Garrison and her staff at Riverwalk are excellent. They take the time to listen to their customers, and they treat their animal patients with the utmost kindness and compassion. I can't thank them enough for the excellent care they gave to my little Chihuahua, Chickie. I give them FIVE stars!!!

Dr. Garrison is a very professional DVM. Every move she makes is in the best interest of her patient. She explains details in laymen terms so you don't have to guess and this gives you options if there are any. I wouldn't take my animals to another Vet in our Valley because she is the very best at what she does. She has saved the life of one of my dogs and has compassionately put down two others making it an experience of just going to sleep. Very caring Vet, with your animal the focal point!

The veterinarian and staff at Riverwalk Veterinarian Hospital have been nothing but amazing to us and have always done their best to go above and beyond. They truly care about the animals, and also about real life and you. They are in this business for the right reasons and it shows with their intentions. I highly recommend this business.

Thank you Dr Garrison, Amy, and Brandon. Regarding the euthanasia of Charmin. You handled my cat, Charmin, and myself with compassion, and professional care. My experience was made as good as could be, and things went very well. She is now part of a garden, in Loleta. I appreciate it. Steve Crane
