"Total Bond at Forestbrook has been wonderful n caring for our 3 dogs. They take the time to explain treatments and rationales, and they go over the expected cost with you before proceeding. All of the staff is friendly anf understanding. I appreciate their gentle approach with our babies and we will continue to recommend them to others! Thank you!!"

"Very good experience. They treated my rescued cat for several leg injuries as well as some regular treatments like vaccines. The vet was very knowledgeable. I had the vet, a tech, and an undergrad student all helping me and my cat at once. I definitely felt like I was in good hands."
