Gentle Care Veterinary Hosp

Doc is the most caring vet I have ever met. We almost lost our beloved Malinois this spring to a tick disease. We were lucky that at our annual visit the day before doc had actually recommended that we get the full tick panel since we take our dogs hiking regularly. To our surprise, the very next day our dog came down with the disease (annaplasmosis). I called Dr. Rose right after the office closed and she recommended I come right in after finding out our dog suddenly was vomitting and could not even walk straight. We were in her office for the next 3 1/2 hours with both Doc and her daughter. We were so very lucky that she saved our dogs life. She could have told us to go the emergency vet clinic, however, she did not and stayed with us until it appeared as if our dog was 'out of the woods'. I would recommend Doc in an instant for her love of the animals!

We have always gone to Dr. Rose because she is close to our house, and she has always done a great job helping ALL of our animals. But the one night that sticks out is the night when we found out that our most beloved cat had bladder crystals. He was in so much pain that he could hardly move-- so we called Doc at 11:30 at night! She got out of bed and came the the clinic in her pajamas to save our cat's life! It turns out he had less than 48 hours to live unless he got help right away. She worked on him for hours that night and did it at a fraction of the cost of the bigger clinics. I recommend this vet to anyone who wants a vet who honestly cares about the pet- and not just about the family's money!

Our family has changed vet services - reason being that we did not feel any personable experience with a few other clinics we used in the past. The assembly line type service practiced by the other fancy "animal hospitals" fall short on giving explanations on what conditions our pets were experiencing. They always seemed more concerned with charges they could incur rather than the critters well being.
Dr. Rose Elliot and her staff are THE BEST we've had since our "Old Country Vet" retired.
Sincerely, The Berglund's

Dr. Rose is a great vet. When I visit from out of state, I have her take care of any problems. I even arranged to have her spay the dog and clean teeth. She really loves animals and is also very concerned with the owners.

The staff there is very friendly and they care alot about the animals that they see. They are also very helpful when you have a new pet for the first time and they provided a puppy packet with samples and literature for me when I got my own puppy for the first time which was very helpful. They also did not take all my cash from my pocket which is an added bonus.
