We love Dr Schepp and the entire staff at South Branch. We are new patients and have been treated like family. I can't say enough good things about this practice.

- Tara Reiner -

The last twenty-four hours for my Abby cat and I have been a lot - moving and a new vet! The stress for both of us was a struggle, and the veterinary staff were so patient and kind towards us both. I’m absolutely happy with my decision in choosing South Branch for Abby’s care - they are thorough, gentle, and most importantly, are very kind all around. Such a wonderful practice and staff!

This vet is truly amazing! All the staff were so wonderful to work with and it made me feel so relaxed knowing my dog was in such great hands. They took all my thoughts into consideration and followed through on everything I asked. I will recommend this vet to everyone who asks! This was by far the best vet visit we have had.

One of my favorite place places to bring my animals. Very professional very knowledgeable the owner is amazing. And it's been my experience she does not hire people who will not meet up to the quality of care that she would give to any of the animals that go in there. South Branch I recommend a lot of people to you. You're all amazing! Thank you!
