Wadsworth has earned strong loyalty from families who drive out of their way to return. Reviewers consistently praise the vets and techs for patience, thorough explanations, and genuine care during routine visits and difficult moments like end-of-life decisions. They offer dental surgery, acupuncture, and laser therapy alongside standard preventive care.
One recent experience flagged a concern: a nervous dog's visit shifted to a paid consultation without explicit consent, and the vet declined to exam after a bark. The owner later got the same dog vaccinated elsewhere without medication or incident. Staff also occasionally run late, though some see this as a sign the clinic prioritises urgent cases over schedules.
Dr. Jan Facinelli leads a practice specializing in holistic and homeopathic care. Almost all reviewers praise her expertise, gentleness, and genuine concern for both pets and owners, though one recent complaint cited high phone consultation charges and insensitive communication after a pet's death.
Most visits leave owners relieved by clear pricing and genuine care from staff who know their animals. One owner drove 40 minutes regularly for the value. The clinic excels at dental cleanings and handles end-of-life with dignity, but two reviewers felt unheard on medical decisions and one wanted the vet present at intake. Dr. Mausbach is named as compassionate. Their website lists urgent exams, soft tissue and eye surgery, and telehealth alongside routine vaccines. Prices from $29 for basic vaccines to $649 for large-dog dental cleanings are published upfront.
Reviewers consistently praise Dr. Shiarella for his honest, direct style and refusal to push unnecessary tests, paired with staff who genuinely care for animals. The walk-in model and reasonable prices set this clinic apart, though waits can be long and some report being kept outside in heat. Surgical care, dental work, and chronic disease management receive repeated specific praise. Stephanie's blood-draw skill and Dr. Shiarella's diagnostic instinct (one reviewer mentions he detected kidney disease by smell) stand out. A small number flagged rude phone conduct and uncomfortable outdoor waiting policies during hot weather.
