We have been going to Dr. Langenderfer for years and she is wonderful. The business has changed hands- Dr. Gossett is now the owner who has discontinued boarding services without notifying her clients!! Failure to do so is poor business practice. From the very few times my pets and I have interacted with her, I don't find her "pet-side" manner particularly appealing either. read more

One star is not low enough to give this supposed "vet". We scheduled to board our diabetic cat a month in advance of a 10-day vacation. Less than a WEEK beforehand they cancel on us for an illegitimate reason. Then they suggest we get a pet sitter................... We have been giving this "vet" business for 35 years, and that business has been terminated. This is absolutely unacceptable and unprofessional and completely destroyed our summer and put us out THOUSANDS of non-refundable dollars. We will NEVER forget the inconvenience caused by this "vet". Shame. read more

We just started going to this veterinarian clinic with our new puppy. This is the second visit here and we are dissatisfied with the service. From the first visit they asked that we arrive 5 to 10 minutes early for our appointments. So we did so on the first appointment and had to wait outside until they let us in just to wait in their lobby and then ask us all the questions over the phone. The second appointment we showed up 10 minutes early and waited outside to be let in when they opened at 8:30. At 8:50 we still hadn't heard anything from them so we called to see if they were open. They asked if we had notified them that we were here and we said no because we were not instructed to do that. At 9:55am someone finally came to take the dog inside for the appointment while we waited outside. We are not satisfied with the level of communication that is provided or the punctuality of honoring appointments made. read more

Alpha Veterinary Clinic - Hours of operation 10/6/21 - Veterinarians Near Me - Dayton, Ohio

I can't say enough about the care of Doctor Roth and the rest of the staff at Alpha Vet Clinic. They went above and beyond. From our regular routine visits to ultimately the one you never want to make, they were there to guide myself and give my dog everything she would ever need from a veterinarian. They cared for my dog as if she was their own. 100% recommend. read more

It's very sad that I am posting this review. I have been going here for 35 years! The quality of care is good. That is what the one star represents. So if you either have a dog or cat who is sick or just needs its immunizations, then this place is right for you. However, my issue comes with boarding. I reserved a place for my cantankerous cat to be boarded while we took a reserved train to San Antonio, TX for a comic.con convention. Between the costs of the convention and the train tickets, it cost a few thousand dollars. But I did buy insurance in case we cancelled the train. However, in Just a few days, not even a week, before our departure, the Alpha Vet Clinic cancelled our boarding because our cat has to have insulin and get fed twice a day. Since he is hissy and growls during his appointments, they did not believe one person could handle him and therefore, cancelled our boarding. When I told them about the train trip, they weakly suggested a cat sitter. After 48 hours of looking, and this occurred right before July 4, a very busy time for boarding pets, there was nobody and nowhere to go so I had to cancel our entire trip. And the insurance may not cover cancelled pet care. FYI: when a cat or a dog wants to eat, it becomes a lot easier to manage and "cantankerous" falls by the wayside. My son and I who are not vet techs or knowledgeable about giving shots both learned to give our cat injections and have been doing so for a couple of years. Therefore, bad behavior that a pet usually might display during an office visit, would not be as problematic. In conclusion, a yearly visit here to get immunizations or care for a sick pet is good but boarding with the Alpha Vet Clinic is another story. read more

We have been clients of Alpha Vet. Clinic since moving to this area in 2006 and have loved the care our babies have gotten. Drs. Gosset, Langenderfer and Bishop are up to the level of care we looked for; and possess the empathy we need in difficult situations. They have comforted me many times. We love them.

I saw the reviews on here and was concerned, but I read a few reviews on other sites praising the other doctors at this clinic so I tried it. I saw Dr Langenderfer. She was AMAZING! I have never had a vet spend so much time with my dog getting to know her and earning her trust before she even began her exam. My dog never takes treats from vets (she doesn't trust them). She actually took treats from Dr. Langenderfer. I cannot recommend Dr Langenderfer enough! read more

THIS REVIEW IS BASED UPON RECENT EVENTS. I have been a customer of AVC for many years. Dr. Ober went over and above in treating my past two dogs. It was a very special caring that he had. Unfortunatly Dr.Ober suffered a strok last year. My disappointment in what has happened is very disturbing. I now have another dog that has been treated by AVC for the past 6 years. Yesterday I noticed my dog was in a lot of pain. I called this morning to get an emergency appointment and was told that there was no way they could see me today. This is wrong in every way. I will never ever take my dog there again. Ken Cline. The receptionist was very rude and matter of fact!! read more

We have been clients for over 25 years. We feel Dr. Langenderfer has been the most caring excellent care giver for all of our cats and dogs! We have also found the entire staff, including the grooming services to be of the same excellent caliber. We recommend them to all and any of our canine and feline friends! Plus our animals good health reflects their good care! read more

My favorite vet clinic ever and we've been through a few. Everyone is friendly and front desk ladies know my dogs by name and greet them when we walk in. My dogs are visibly happy to be there and to see Dr. Bishop! Prices are lower than most and they do boarding. read more

The Doctor is very friendly, knowledgeable, and great with my puppy! She takes the time to give tips and pointers about training, among other things. It's obvious she really cares about her furry clientele. The staff is also wonderful. They are kind and patient and always answer my questions. If they need to consult with the vet, they always quickly call me back with an answer. Lastly, they are very thorough with their medical care and take their time with understanding my puppy's needs. Awesome clinic!! All around! read more

Before about 2012, it was a great place. Very prompt, very attentive. Always looking out for pets best interest and the customer service was great. In the past two years, I think their customer service and attention to detail has fallen way down. The actual veterinarians are very nice, if and when you get to see them or talk to them, and I believe they had my pet's best interest in mind if they were aware. However, the customer service of the front desk and technicians is bad. They definitely don't seem motivated to solve any problem of the customer. In a situation recently, they could not answer a status question on whether a doc had reviewed an overnight fax record from an emergency visit the night prior. They ended up setting it on a desk or whatever. We received a call three days later. By that time we had already moved on for the sake of our pet. We will never go back. read more

Absolutely excellent service and attention. I brought my two cats in and the vet spent infinitely more time with them and did a much more thorough exam than any other place I have been. We had a small miscommunication regarding a small billing items and they removed the charge from my account immediately, no questions asked. I wold highly recommend this vet clinic. read more

I want to start by saying Dr. Langenderfer is the kindest warmest most compassionate Vet that I have ever been to. She has the magical touch when it comes to animals. However, If you have to use either of the other vets you got problems. Twice Dr. Langenderfer has been unavailable when I needed to bring my dog in to have nails done. He has issues and is extremely sensitive so they have to totally sedate him. The first time I was told it would be $35 it ended up being $75 and he wasn't right for three days. Recently I had to take him in to have it done again and Dr. Langenderfer could not be seen until the following week so I had to see another of the vets again. This time when he was sedated it wasn't 100% and the doctor cut every nail and quick on each of his feet. There was blood all over the floor. She said she needed to take him to another room to finish the job. That visit cost me $175 including medications for his bleeding nails. The staff is cold and not very helpful. I know it the office has a new owner. I will not be back again. Dr. Langenderfer, if you ever go to another animal hospital please let your clients know. read more
