Looking for good vet in Twin Cities

My 12 year old dog, Sophie, is a lab/shepard mix who had a front limb amputation for osteosarcoma in October 2008, followed by chemotherapy.  In the past year, she has developed significant osteoarthritus, so we are just focusing on quality of life right now.

We moved to Saint Paul, MN, about a month ago, and I'm looking to find her a new vet. She had a wonderful palliative care vet in Boston (Dr. Lisa Moses at Angell Memorial), and I'm looking for someone similar, or just a good vet, here in the Twin Cities.

Any leads appreciated!

I would highly recommend going to the University of Minnesota. One of the top animal hospitals in the country. Dr. Henson was the oncologist that saw Charlie, and even though I was a blubbering idiot, he was very sweet and compassionate.
