Hear what clients are saying about us

Dr. McCally has performed multiple surgeries on my dogs for a number of years. I am pleased to say that each surgery has been very successful. He explains the surgery in detail to you and what to expect after surgery which is very helpful to any pet owner. He gave my dogs a second chance at a good and active life. I would highly recommend Dr. McCally for any type of surgery for your animals.

This duo of surgeons are truly amazing! They did surgery to repair my English Bulldog Maddee’s ACL injury & airway issues. Not only am I appreciative of both surgeons partnering together for a complex surgery, but I have spoken with Dr McCally several times. He has an amazing disposition and truly cares for his patients. The support care & office staff are no different! On surgery day, you are guided through the process. Maddee even got all the snuggles by Ashley while she was waiting! I see exactly why this team was highly recommended! I also forgot to mention, I called our primary care vet’s office to provide an update. I was informed they were happy Maddee was back home & that the medical records from the surgery were already in her chart. This was within an hour of me picking her up. Job well done to this team! We weren’t just another surgery, but your effectiveness & proficiency were off the charts! If any of my animals need another surgery, I will be back! Thank you!

Professional, caring beyond your imagination, staff of knowledgeable people, two of the greatest surgeons in Arizona. The facilities are organized and well maintained. I’ve lived in this community for over 40 yrs and hands down they are the best…no contest.
