Be cautious with this clinic. While the staff is friendly, my experience was incredibly frustrating. They performed multiple unnecessary procedures on my dog and charged excessively—medications were nearly double the price you’d find on Chewy.com. I walked out with a bill over $400, and the original issue was simply flies bothering my dog. This price did not included blood work, which made it even more expensive.
A standard vet visit should not cost more than $120. For something minor like treating a dog for flies, the total should realistically be around $100–150. Even if blood work is needed, it shouldn’t exceed $150—my regular vet only charges $75, though it’s rare to find such fair pricing now. It’s unfortunate that so many clinics take advantage of urgent situations and leave pet owners financially overwhelmed.
What made the situation worse was when we tried to negotiate or question the charges—they shifted the blame onto us, the client, rather than showing any understanding or willingness to work with us. There was no sense of remorse or effort to make things right, which was incredibly disappointing.
Even simple services like nail trimming are inflated—what costs $10 at PetSmart was far more here. Sadly, our regular vet was closed that day, or we never would’ve come here. I strongly recommend asking for a full price estimate before agreeing to anything. Transparency and compassion are key in pet care—and this clinic lacked both. :(

I recently called to schedule an appointment, explaining that I wanted to bring my dog to their facility due to ongoing concerns with the care my local vet has provided. Instead of receiving understanding or support, the response I got was: "You do know we aren't a low-cost hospital, right?"
I was taken aback — I never mentioned money or cost. My only concern was the well-being of my dog. That kind of assumption speaks volumes about the priorities of this facility. When I addressed the inappropriate comment, the staff member ended the call abruptly.
It’s deeply concerning that a place entrusted with the care of animals would treat a potential client this way — with zero empathy and only money in mind. I hope the business owner sees this and takes a serious look at the kind of staff representing their practice. Compassion should come first in this field. Sadly, that was nowhere to be found during my experience.

I can't recommend this place. They didn't do a good job with my dog. He had pancreatitis and his kidneys were not great but under control. For his 3er episode of pancreatitis they sent me home with pills and the recommendation to use the refills if he had a another episode of pancreatitis. Never offer Fluid Therapy for example. Well there were a second episode but this time of Kidney failure. All in one month. Reading more about this I found out that if the pancreatitis is not treated well kidney failure is a risk. An experienced doctor would have analyzed the whole picture, anticipate that complications can happen, and ask the owner to come back for a follow-up. But they instead sent me with refills telling me that a second visit would not be necesary. He had seisure and I took him to the ER and then there was nothing I could do to save him. Please get a second opinion. I don't have a life now. I trusted them and they failed me and my dog.

DPC staff is very patient with me and both of my reactive dogs. They take the time to listen to me when I explain the behavior of both of my dogs and take my advice it into account when handling my dogs. They are very knowledgeable and confident yet patient and understanding all at the same time. We’ve probably had to have half of the clinic staff with us between various appointments and they have all been wonderful.

DPC was recommended to me when we moved here and I couldn’t be happier with them. Dr. Feldt is fantastic! He is always thorough and gentle when examining our cats and dogs. He explains everything, gives us different options, and is receptive to my questions. The techs/nurses are some of the most detail oriented and organized that I have ever encountered. The team at the front desk is always friendly and helpful. With multiple cats and dogs, having a good vet is essential, and I’m thrilled with the care that our pets receive at DPC.
