Sierra Animal Wellness Center - Colfax, California

Dr. Roberts is professional, kind and very experienced. We acquired our awesome little boy Corgi from her in 2022. Felix had an issue that, considering Dr. Roberts history with him, we decided the drive from Reno was worth it. Very reasonably priced. Quck diagnosis and medicine prescribed.

We initially brought our elderly dachshund in for treatment for her back issues. After every single treatment by Dr Peggy she rebounded and had more mobility. When it was time for her dental at age 13 as a megaesophagus dog we had significant concerns for her treatment and recovery. Dr Peggy and staff took extra time to meet in advance with us to work on a safe plan. At the end of our girls life Dr Peggy and her team were compassionate and caring. I felt like the whole team cared as much for our sweet girl as we did. I couldn’t have chosen a better group of people to help care for our pup for so many years.

Since our pup Patches became rear end paralyzed in Dec '22, we have been seeing Dr. Peggy regularly for aquapuncture treatments. I love the atmosphere and the hometown hospitality of all of the staff. Being a smaller clinic, the staff really get to know each patient individually and it feels very comforting to know our pets are well cared for. They offer a lot of different choices of treatments and medications/supplements that other clinics do not provide. The staff and Dr. Peggy are happy to share information to help educate us. And the best part is they have the sweetest office kitties that are sure to melt your heart. Thank you!

If I could rate less then one star I would

This place treated my precious cat named Magnolia for Pyometra, I was charged $332 for the “so called” treatment. I was sent home with medication to inject in her and I was told that the infection would clear up & to make a follow up appointment in a couple weeks. I did just that, during the follow up appointment not only was I charged additionally for that appointment, I was also told she was healthy and good to go.

(Please note: during the follow up visit with Sierra animal wellness center, not only was I told magnolia was healthy, but I could also breed her before her next heat and then I would have to get her spayed, so the infection doesn’t happen again)

2 weeks later, magnolia is acting sleepy & not eating much, something told me to get her to a different veterinarian as soon as possible. so I decided to take her to “Mother Lode veterinarian hospital” in grass valley the next day.

I had to make an emergency surgery appointment because magnolia almost died because the infection did not clear up,
so not only was I charged from Sierra animal wellness for something that was not diagnosed/treated properly because she never had an ultrasound from her original diagnosis, I also had to pay double the price because of the emergency surgery at another vet.

If I didn’t listen to my gut feeling and take her to Mother Lode Vet, my cat would’ve died within weeks.
Completely ridiculous!!!!
“Holistic” approach? Yea right!!
Thank God for mother lode veterinarian hospital in grass valley. They are amazing.!!!
100% blessed my precious Magnolia is alive today.

Today I took my very elderly parents to put their very elderly poodle down. It was the saddest thing I've ever witnessed. Buddy The Dog was 18 years old and the center of their universe. The people at Sierra Animal Center took very good care of Buddy and enabled him to have many happy, healthy years. When it was time for him to go they were extremely compassionate and kind. Thank you, Sierra Animal Wellness!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dr Peggy has been great in our journey to figuring out how to deal with dog allergies! We love that she does a blood test in order to figure out whether our dog needs more of a vaccination before giving it. Her Chinese herbal medicine background is why we started coming! Great with our very loud lab’s anxiety barking as well. All of her staff has been so kind and helpful, we love all of you! Thank you

Dr. Peggy is always so attentive. She takes the time to really listen to your concerns and answers questions in a professional manner, but in laymen's terms. Shirley is great with my kitty - even when he's acting like a brat. I was going to a vet's office just down the street before, but now that I know about Sierra Animal Wellness Center, I'd rather drive to Colfax instead. They take very good care of us.

One of my favorite vets! They were super helpful with microchipping and vaccinating my skittish cat without charging me a ton like the other vets quoted me. Love seeing the cute office cats too.
