What recent reviews say

Reviewers consistently describe attentive care from Dr. White and her team, who spend time with each animal and communicate regularly. Many have been clients for over a decade, citing thorough exams, personal attention to both pet and owner, and reasonable prices as reasons they will not leave.

The clinic handles routine care, complex medical issues (cancer, autoimmune disorders, torn ACLs), exotic pets (rabbits, hedgehogs, tortoises), and coordinates with specialists when needed. Staff remember families, respond quickly to messages, and offer practical advice like stretches for older dogs.

Aurora Hills Animal Hospital

4.1(327)✓ Verified

Aurora Hills Animal Hospital draws strong loyalty from many clients who praise staff warmth and quick appointments, but a significant minority report serious cost concerns and occasionally troubling care outcomes. Some reviewers describe misdiagnoses that delayed proper treatment, inflexible payment arrangements, and a perceived lack of attentiveness to patient history or communication during visits. The business appears strongest for routine care and preventive visits with engaged staff, but prospective customers should factor in notably higher pricing and verify clinical recommendations elsewhere if dealing with complex or expensive diagnoses. Dr. Kyra and Dr. Riley are named as standout clinicians who explain treatment options clearly. Several complaints center on emergency-room responsiveness, receptionist flexibility with payments, and the cost of basic services like nail trims ($50) and consults ($89-92). One reviewer experienced a critical misdiagnosis (urinary stone obstruction) that went undetected during blood tests and X-rays, leading to a pet's death. Others report being steered toward expensive tests without adequate justification or follow-up care after procedures.

Dr. Soliman and her team earn strong praise for surgical expertise, gentle bedside manner, and genuine animal care. However, the clinic's no-entry policy frustrates owners who expect to speak with the vet in person, and multiple reviewers report chronic phone line and scheduling failures. Complaints also surface about rude front staff and at least one claim of unnecessary, poorly executed surgery.
