Wonderful and caring staff. Staff do follow up home calls to see how everything is with your pet(s). Your pet(s) are treated like the staff's own. Many vets told us what we knew, our Lilly was over weight and needed to drop lbs. Tekonsha was the only pet doc who took action and followed up. Our Lilly is dropping lbs. after gaining weight when we got her fixed yrs. back. Thank you Tekonsha staff for caring.
