Ark Veterinary Care

Everyone working here is kind and meticulous about their work. When prescribing something for one cat, they consider my other, absent cat. They always make time for me and they have fantastic hours. It’s so nice to have a vet I can count on. Before, I went to a vet near my house, but they couldn’t get a single thing right and they never had time for an emergency appointment. I’d much rather drive an extra 25 minutes to come to ARK. Thanks so much ARK staff and doctors for taking such great care of Chess and Checkers! You’ve saved them more than a few times now!

I came in to get my pup checked on a wound he had on his paw. I sadly cannot afford Pet Insurance but I more t Happy to pay good money for my fur baby. I was sent into an exam room & I could hear Dr. Chahal ask his staff, "Does she have insurance? I hate when they don't have pet insurance " to which the Staff member mentioned " she's still in there". It was truly unprofessional and disappointing. Especially since I was there to make sure my pup was healthy & safe

Dr. Chahal was very caring and compassionate as were all the staff there. Our own vet (of 20 plus years and 4 dogs/cats) wouldn't squeeze us in for an urgent visit. Dr. Chahal took us in and after lab tests/xrays we found he needed surgery so he stayed late and provided our dog with life saving surgery. He was there until well past midnight monitoring our dog. After that we switched our care here and have not been disappointed. This was over a year ago, I'm just sorry I didn't write a comment sooner.

My first time here and this place is a savior. What I thought was a little injury to his foot turned out to be an infection that spread to all of his paws that required surgery. They did the procedure the same day and now Buddies quality of life will be greatly improved. Thank you.

I have been here multiple times with multiple dogs for routine check ups, mail trimmings and emergency care. The most recent which was about a week ago I brought one of my chihuahua in because she seemed to be very constipated. I checked her, moved her around, sort of a pre visit examination myself, just to determine that it wasn’t a let or hip injury. She did not have any issue there so I assumed it was constipation. I brought her in to have her examined to determine the cause of her discomfort. The vet came in and did the exact same “exam” that I did and came to the same conclusion, except her exam lasted all of 30 seconds. She said they needed to do x-rays, blood test, pancreatitis tests and hook her up to an IV and would return with the estimate. I used scratch pay for all of the other visits so I wasn’t terribly worried about the cost. She comes back with an estimate of just shy of $1200 just for the tests alone. Scratch pay did not approve my loan request, even though I had paid off 6 loans totaling over $8000 within the last 3 years so I told the vet that I could not afford the treatment. I rejected the treatment and as I was leaving they said there was an exam fee, $70 for a 30 second exam where the vet just squeezed my dogs stomach a couple times. This place only cares about money as many other reviews have stated. I will never be back here again.
