Great vet! Takes his time to talk to you and let you know options and what is going on. My dog has seizures and lupus and he made it a lot less scary to deal with. Plus to get medications, it is easy and efficient. I highly recommend Dr. Stone. Plus his prices are great.

This is one of the worst vets I've ever experienced in my life. I've raised puppies since I was a child and am a dog trainer, and have been a handler for animals in stage shows, yet according to Dr. Stone, I am a poor pet owner. His reasoning behind my being such a terrible owner, was because my 6 month old puppy was 'not happy to see him'. Upon being brought in, the puppy, who is half border collie [which is a breed known for nervousness in the first place] was anxious and had his tail between his legs when the vet came in. Dr. Stone said that my dog "should be happy" to see him, "his tail should be wagging and he should be happy" to be here, being poked and prodded by a strange man. He accused me of under-socializing my dog, and chastised me for the entire visit. What's more, when I came in, I was 5 minutes late, but ended up waiting another 45 minutes for the doctor to arrive. Then after arrival, it took him another 10 minutes to even see me. The receptionist was exceptionally rude and was incredibly judgmental, snapping at me and talking to me like I was stupid the entire time. Once I'd dropped off my puppy to be fixed, she told me that he would be ready to be picked up between 4-6, and that she would call us when he was ready. She called us at 5:45, and said "Where are you? Why aren't you here? We're about to close." What she said was he'd be ready from 4-6, but what she MEANT apparently was that I should pick him up from 4-6 because they were closing. I nearly had to leave him there overnight because she mispoke. This was all back in October; I've moved since then, but I needed to call the clinic today and have them fax over the paperwork from my dog's last visit to my current vet, since he was due. Today I went to a FAR BETTER vet in another state, but when calling, the receptionist was again, very rude. She was clearly irritated with my asking her to do something, then she sounded to be judging me very hard for living in my state. When I made it to the clinic, the receptionist at this clinic said that the one at Northgate had been horrible rude to her, as well. The paperwork was written in such a horrible scrawl she couldn't really read it, so she called them to check on what shots he was given and what procedure was done. She snapped at the receptionist calling, talking to her like she's stupid, and kept telling her to 'look at the papers'. I looked at them myself. They were poorly faxed and were overly dark, in addition to such messy handwriting that I couldn't read it at all. This place is the worst. The doctor is an absolute snotty, pretentious twat, and the receptionist thinks she knows better than anyone. Dr. Stone is hardly professional, and neither is his receptionist. If you are short on money and have nowhere else to go, try another part of the state before trying here. They're cheap but that's because they don't care about their clients, or the animals they serve.

We recently moved to the area and ended up going to Dr. Stone after doing some research. It was a decision that we have been extremely happy with. His receptionist, Joanne, also manages the office and is great to work with. Had to put our cat down yesterday, first time for me, and they were very compassionate, stayed after hours to allow some grieving time. Beautiful people and we asked that he not retire until our dog has passed, that is how much we love them! I've never written a review but this one was important to me in hopes that it might help someone if they are in search of a new vet.

Very affordable and great customer service. What more can I say.

This is the worse vet in town. They are rude, and they chastise you for everything. They are rough and uncaring to the animals. We took our dog Lily in to them for her first set of shots and were chastised for it not being exactly at her 6 week mark. We had just gotten her less than a week before. The receptionist was far from kind. This didn’t discourage us we took our other dog there for his shots that he was dew for. He is 8 years old and has never bitten anyone or even acted like he was going to. He has arthritis in his back and gets to hurting bad but has never been mean or anything. Well the vet was yelling at my husband saying he didn’t know what he was talking about and everything. Well he went to grab for Teddy during all this and he bit him. The vet reached back to hit him and my husband stopped him. I have taken my oldest dog to skyline vet for 8 years with the exception of this one time to keep the cost down. I still wound up taking him to skyline for the shots. They treat their pets with a lot more kindness than this place ever has. To conclude my review this office should be put to the very last place on your list of taking your pet. Not only was this my experience of this office but my son took his dog here as well with the same result. Please take your dog or cat somewhere else if you care about him or her. These people do not care about animals or people.
