What recent reviews say

Most reviewers praise Indian Tree for warm, attentive staff who listen carefully and handle anxious animals with patience. However, at least two detailed complaints allege unnecessary dental work was pushed, with patients seeking second opinions and learning the recommended procedures were not medically needed. Cost concerns also surface occasionally despite frequent mentions of transparency.

Legacy Veterinary Clinic

4.5(379)✓ Verified

Reviewers consistently praise Dr. Sarhangpour and Dr. Foltz for solving complex cases and treating senior pets expertly, often after other vets failed. The clinic's in-house labs and ultrasound get answers quickly, and staff create a calm, fear-free environment even for anxious animals. Some patients report that Legacy recommended extended testing before surgery or missed early signs of serious illness, leading to delayed treatment elsewhere. Billing has been a sore point: estimates sometimes contain unwanted services or jump significantly between versions, frustrating owners seeking straightforward care.
