I was thrilled to see a new vet in town so close to my home. When my two dogs developed major hot spots after a day at the beach, I chose to try Great Oaks. Dr. Smith and Diane were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. They both listened to me at intake and treated me like a partner in the care of my dogs. Dr. Smith gave me options in terms of treatment and explained everything as we went through the exam. Finally, he made every effort to save me money instead of running endless tests and padding the invoice with upsale items. This is someone whose priority is the health of the animal rather than the expansion of a business. The dogs were feeling better within a few hours. I will definitely be returning to Great Oaks and allow Dr. Smith to assume full time care for my fur babies.
