Weve been happy clients of Dr. Minor for several years now. With 3 dogs and 4 cats, weve had the opportunity to visit the office quite a few times over the years. The appointments have always been fairly quick and we have never had to wait very long to see the vet. The nice ladies at the front desk have always been really good to us as well. Would definitely recommend!

I recently acquired a stray cat while on a trip to California and since I didn't know anything about the cat's history, I decided to bring him in for a general exam. Dr. Minor quickly determined that he had ear mites and since the cat was a "Californian", she also checked him for flea eggs (something that didn't even occur to me before - but rather important since I have a house full of other cats at home). Sure enough, Mickey (the cat) had flea eggs burrowed deep in his fur.Mickey was also given all of the proper vaccinations. He is usually a mellow cat, but when it came time for the vaccinations he decided to put up a fight. Doctor Minor and her technician were great troupers through it all. They handled the ordeal professionally and were able to finish up the exam without anyone getting a single scratch!With updated vaccinations and ear mite & flea treatments, Mickey is healthy & happy in his new home. I would highly recommend Dayton Valley Veterinary Hospital - 5 Stars.

In the past, I had good luck with Dr. Lizette. Our most recent checkup, I had Dr. Mary and my husband was not impressed. I preferred the other vet, but kept an open mind. Then one of my animals became sick, losing weight, was dehydrated and essentially dying. I would have appreciated a candid opinion from Dr. Mary. Instead, she did a lot of tests, rehydrated the animal, sent me home with medicines and gave me a bill. I had to put the animal down two days later at an emergency hospital after watching her spiral down to a level worse than before she went into the vet. I didn't have a problem doing that since I can not watch an animal suffer. I did not appreciate the false hope I was given. Perhaps I did not ask enough of the correct questions, but when I am dealing with a professional, I expect a professional assessment, good or bad. Due to this experience, I will not return to this veterinarian.

Dr. Mary and her family have been Dayton residents for a long time and the fact that less than 10 years after she started practing veterinary medicine, she had to triple her office space and have a partner assist her, is a testament to her skill and compassion as a vet. Dr. Minor personally saved the life of one of my dogs, and for that, we will be eternally grateful to her, and continue to take our animals there for any care that they need. They're always busy because they're that good.

You might have had a problem getting an immediate appointment if you went in during surgery time. Every day from 10-12, the veterinarians do surgeries.

I tried to get my dog in to see a vet at Dayton Valley Veterinary Hospital. It was my first visit. There were no cars in the parking lot. The woman at the front desk said that the vets were busy and that they could "fit me in" late that afternoon. Fortunatly, it was not an emergency. The woman was not friendly and I felt that I was imposing upon her just to deal with me as a customer. I left and found another vet in Dayton. Eventhough there were people (and animals) at this vet, they got us in, and we had a good exam and treatment.I can understand why there were no patients at Dayton Valley Veterinary Hospital as the front desk personnel keeps them away. They may be great vets, but I guess I will never know.
