Dr. French has been our vet for a few years now, and she's very kind and trustworthy around our dogs. I've heard nightmare stories lately about needless procedures to keep the fees high, but our vet knows we're college students and always looks to find the best balance between our pet's health and our very tiny wallets. They added a new vet (as of april '09), and my husband likes him a lot, too. We took advantage of the low cost Tues/Thurs appointments where they don't charge office visit fees, and even then the new vet (sorry, wish I knew your name!) took the time to really talk with my husband on our senior dog's health and offer suggestions for getting her weight ideal. Thanks Banfield folk!
