I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Golden. The amount of care, compassion, empathy for our family is immeasurable. Dr. Golden holds a special place for us. She went above and beyond for our dogs during their worst times. Ive never had a vet care for us so much. Our dogs absolutely loved her (as did we). Sadie and koa received very personable treatment, that you wont find anywhere else. Dr. Golden should be the standard other vets should look to. - Sadie and Koa’s Mom
