If you have exotic animals, don't come here. The assistant vet held our baby bird around the neck so tight to the point where she was visibly suffocating. Now, it's expected for birds to pant a little when they are scared. But they are always full breaths. Mine was gasping for air and very little air was going in her lungs, as evidenced by her tummy only expanding slightly with air despite her hasty breaths.
They are also liars. There were two ladies attending to my bird, one the lead vet, and the other the assistant. One of them asked under their breath if something was normal about my baby. But the beak trimmer was so loud, neither me or my kid could quite parse out the details. So we innocently asked, "is WHAT normal about her?" And they just acted dumb and refused to answer the question.
Credit where credit is due, the nails were done properly, and it's possible we were informed of some medical advice regarding the amount her beak should be trimmed (requires my own independent research), but even then the assistant didn't even know a birds typical diet! And they lied.
In conclusion, they are hard to trust, both in knowledge and in ethics, and have the potential of mishandling your animal so poorly that they can hardly breathe, despite (potentially!) having some anatomical knowledge. Would give zero stars if I could. But perhaps they aren't so bad with dogs and cats. I saw a few dogs come out the office and they looked content.

I had to take my cat Jale/Jalapena to speak yesterday because I suspected she had a stroke. The staff was wonderful with her. We decided it was best to put my sweet girl down. They were so good to me and her. Got the iv in her arm and brought her into me wrapped in a blanket so we could say our goodbyes. When I was ready they put the meds in and in with in a matter of seconds she was gone so peacefully. I am so glad I was there to hold her to say goodbye and she was with some one that she loved. The staff was very sweet and caring with me and my beautiful girl. I have a hole in my heart and have missed her so much, but her passing was so peaceful and I know she is in a better place, hopefully with our grand dog, Bear. If you want a loving caring environment for your pets, speak is awesome.

Our dog was seriously ill. Even though we haven't been there in several years, he was still considered a patient. They had an opening and got him in that day. A very short wait. He was diagnosed with Lyme.
The staff is excellent. Highly recommend.

I can’t go to explain the love and compassion I feel every time I bring one of my animals to Speak. Dr Mindy was so amazing yesterday while I had to do one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Saying goodbye to my 14 y/o pup Tennessee was so tough but it was the right thing to do. He had an amazing life and not only was I his person, he was my emotional support dog. Thank you Dr Mindy and all the ladies in the office for being so supportive and sweet ?????

My pets have been going to SPEAK for as long as I can remember! Their services are affordable, the staff is always pleasant and helpful, and the doctors are very knowledgeable. Anytime I’ve been concerned about anything they have fit me in quickly.
It’s a little bit of a hike from my house, but after checking the prices of other vets closer to my home, it’s worth driving to Speak versus switching to someone closer.

Very caring and professional. Saw my cat on short notice. Told me prices up front not an arm and a leg. My senior cat has diabetes and we are gonna try food to see if sugar comes down first. Before we make any other decisions. Thank you so much for your kindness to my kitty and me!

I received great care for my Rabbit recently. I took him in for a 'checkup'. Fortunately, no problems.Speak does like for you to be a pre-existing client prior to any urgent need care. Thus the main reason for my visit.Speak does have an exotic pets vet on their staff.
