We would like to extend our warmest thanks to the entire Vételis team, and in particular to our veterinarian, Dr. colas, who has been with Kyara every step of the way.
During this dreaded decision, Dr. colas accompanied us with kindness and gentleness to ensure that everything went as smoothly as possible for our daughter, and with a great deal of compassion for us.
We were touched by the personalized card we received shortly after her death, and thank you for all the love and kindness you showed her over the years.
We feel that they really care about our animals’ health, and what’s more, we always get all the explanations we need to understand their minor or major pathologies. Thank you to the whole team for their friendliness and the seriousness of their work.
Patience, good advice, our Snoopy feels at home here.
Very attentive, patient and gentle with animals.
I called them urgently at 8:30 for my Tonerre and at 9:15 he was taken care of.
The team is very attentive and the vet is only interested in the well-being of your companion, not in billing for unnecessary procedures. I recommend this establishment, which is also very clean and easy to get to.
