You meet the vet. You hear what we think. You see the cost. Then you decide.
Every visit starts with an exam and ends with a printed summary. Anything in between, a blood panel, an x-ray, a dental, comes as a written estimate with a line for each item. You sign it or you don't. What we do is what's on the sheet, and the sheet is the bill.
Dr. Raman opened the clinic in 2011 after years at a corporate practice where she wasn't allowed to say what things cost until after. Nobody here has a sales target.

“The estimate matched the bill to the dollar. I've never had that at a vet.”
Nervous dogs get examined on the floor. Cats never wait next to a dog.
Treats through the whole visit, a separate quiet room for cats, and a technician trained in low-stress handling. If your pet needs something to take the edge off before visits, we prescribe it. That's not a failure, it's a plan.
“Mabel used to shake in the parking lot at our old vet. Here she walks in and looks for treats.”
Something wrong today? Call by 3 pm and we'll see you today.
We hold sick slots open every weekday and release them at 8 am. A same-day exam is $95, and anything beyond the exam comes with an estimate before we go further.
If it can't wait for us, the urgent care page tells you what counts as an emergency and exactly where to go after hours.
“Called at 8:05 about Otis limping. Seen at 10:30. X-ray, diagnosis, home by noon.”

Things people ask before they book
Do you really show the price before treatment?
Yes. After the exam, you get a written estimate for anything we recommend. You sign it, or you don't, and we only do what's on it. If something changes mid-procedure we stop and call you.
Can I get in today?
On weekdays, almost always. We keep sick slots open every day and release them at 8 am. Call by 3 pm. Saturdays fill faster, so call early.
Are you part of a chain?
No. Dr. Raman owns the clinic and has since 2011. Nobody here has a sales target.
My dog is terrified of the vet. What do you do differently?
Nervous dogs get examined on the floor, not the table, and we use treats through the whole visit. Cats wait in a separate quiet room. If your pet needs a little medication before visits to take the edge off, we'll prescribe it and it's not a failure.
