I joined Yelp just so I could write this review. Dr. Yao and his staff took care of my dogs for almost 10 years. One of them made it to 16 this summer and the other to 15 this Christmas. Although they both had a share of health issues, their last days were happy and full of life. Every time my pets confronted a new hurdle , Dr. Yao and i talked it through from a health perspective, a financial perspective and a quality of life perspective. As I had to say goodbye to each of them Dr. Yao and his staff cried with me. As with everything in life, some staff are better than others, some moments you do not get people at their absolute best but I ony wish I could find human primary care physicians who balanced the physical/mental/emotional health of the patient and the care taker with the same grace
hi, I wanted to say a thank you for the good help that you give to Frank Taylor's cat "Bewts"! warm greetings fom Cologne, Germany :)
I have used this veterinarian the past several months for my dog's vaccines and check ups until I decided to neuter him (the surgery was scheduled for today. They asked me to take the dog early in the morning (at 8 am); however, six hours later they called me to tell me that the dog hurt his foot "mysteriously in his cage" and they could not do the surgery. When I picked my dog up around 3:30 he was limping severely on one leg and he can barely walk. The clinic came with many excuses, including the argument saying that my dog is very active and they could not explain how my dog got hurt that bad. I am so concerned he is at home right now with his leg shaking and he seems very uncomfortable. I am very disappointed for such of lack of professionalism and care, although I do have to recognize that they are really good in ripping people off with high fees and extra costs. I do not recommend this place at all. As some other reviews below I recommend to switch vets and hope they go out of business soon. We need a professional veterinarian in the neighborhood.
They have been amazing to my dogs and cats problems and solved everything without a hiccup. All I can remember once I had an issue with an older man who I hadn't ever seen before work there one weekend and he was a waste of time. I only saw him the one time, but other than that it's been great. They are a little more expensive, but it's worth it if you only have to take your pet in a few times a year. I do have a dog that has some allergy problems so it has been a bit costly the first couple of years. I have since moved from Miami and miss their services, but my mom and brother go there if there are any emergencies with their pets.
In August 2011 we took our Yorkshire terrier back for teeth cleaning & asked if they took Care Credit Visa; they did not & since we had just moved from that area across town we didn't have enough cash to have the work done & went to another vet, Yao had been our usual vet. In February 2012 we went back to Yao for annual shots; there was a new worker/doctor; short & nasty, a woman we had never seen. She was rude, cursed at us, gave bad advise; I was floored by the unprofessional treatment; have sworn to never return and hope they go out of business. I have since found a wonderful vet. Do yourself and your pet a favor; stay away; save your money, forego poor service, & grief. They also did not properly enter notes in the pets folder.
