Tuesday night, are cat had some issues. The next day, he seem fine, but we took him in "just in case." They didn't have any appointments available, but we did a walk-in appointment at 8:30am. We were taken into a room pretty quickly and a technician asked us questions. She also gave Riker a blanked with Pheromone spray on it to calm him, which it did!
Because we were walk-ins and they were busy, we were told it would be about an hour wait. We were fine with that. It was a little less than an hour when Dr. Hammerschmidt (she is a sweetheart) took Riker into an examination room while we waited. Within 10 minutes, they were back to give us their diagnosis. It was nothing serious. We also received some recommendations to think about for his diet and teeth tarter issues.
Another tech came into the room to check us out and we thought the cost was reasonable. We are new to the area and so glad we found Empire Ranch Vet.

When our dog took a very sudden turn for the worst this morning, and every single one of the staff went above and beyond to be loving and helpful to me when I brought in our sick dog and two toddlers. They gave us a safe space to wait and let the kids move, and were incredibly kind and patient. Our dog passed quickly while we were there about to put him down, and everyone handled the situation very warmly and professionally. The front even made our kids cookies fresh to eat after. Can’t recommend enough
