Been a client of Badger Creek Vet for many years. Last year I called for an appointment to have them trim the nails on one of our pups. I was told by the staff member that the pup's annual physical was over due and that Zelda would have to have that done before they would do a nail trim. A discussion with Dr. Chambers today on another problem relating to his practice did not augur well for Dr. Chamber's social skills and he was firm in the annual physicals as a requirement for any other services Badger Creek provided. BTW I took Zelda to Pets Mart to get the toe nails trimmed without any requirement for a pre physical and got a grooming bath tossed in for a total of 15 dollars. I can no longer recommend Badger Creek Vets as a animal care resource. BTW I did miss the original Badger Creek staff who were allegedly fired when Chambers took over. Thank you for reading this missive Bob Miller read more

Thanks for all you did to help me get my granddaughters dog moved to Hawaii! Everything went smoothly and was very happy with your front desk girls help and of course Dr. Chandler's knowledge to get Lady moved with no hold ups. Very happy with how the process went. Can't thank you enough and recommend Badger Creek Vet for all your animal needs:) Thanks a million times over!! Respectfully, Carolyn Wrede, Denver Paxton and Kinley Wrede read more

Very friendly staff and the service was quick and easy! Took my 3 pups in for there first shots and got aftercare information. read more

They were compassionate, very helpful, and down to earth regarding the care I was deciding on for my dog. Highly recommend!!!!

*** Update: Received records, stated they did a fecal sample, they did not. I never provided one. So they lie and pad chart notes as well. *** Update 2 - Several off lab results which were not discussed, most of which are to do with infection AND LOE VALUES ON ELECTROLYTES INDICATING DEHYDRATION. None of which discussed. Also a good recommendation, ALSO NOT DISCUSSED. Stay far, far away from this "vet". He is as lazy as he is a liar. Where to begin. Our journey with Badger Creek was off to a bad start when we walked in and the office smelled strongly of animal urine. Ok, its an animal hospital, things happen. Moving on. The tech was incredible, it is a shame we cant go back because they were great. The problem lies in a DVM who clearly lost interest in his job and is just not interested. We took 3 cats in for check ups and nary an exam was done. I found a lump on my cats side, it is a kitten and very hard to miss. He did not look in their ears, articulate any joints, make suggestions on weight. My one cat had pancreatitis, that he did bloodwork for diagnosis. Said the results should be in in the morning and let us leave with no fluids or medications. The cat should have been kept overnight or given fluids then, but he didn't check her gums or her level of dehydration. He says he did, but my husband and I were both in the room. The next day I waited, and waited and waited for them to call about her results. I finally called at the end of the work day and he said the results weren't there in the morning and he forgot. They were available. "Floki is VERY HIGHLY suffering from pancreatitis but were closing so you can come get meds tomorrow". Left my cat to suffer overnight AGAIN, dehydrated with no fluids. They then proceed to give my husband a 3 man job to hold down a cat and inject fluids into her while squeezing an IV bag instead of doing to themselves. The the point where my husband had to load up a sick cat DAILY and go into the office and ask for help. They did help him. But that was throw in my face as a gift and not as them trying to do the right thing. They don't do the right thing here, that is all I've asked them to do. I even deleted my first review thinking things were improving but this doctor has time to argue on the phone but not enough time to check for results on sick animals, mop the waiting room or do proper exams. When I said id like them to make it right and do proper exams and go back and look at the stuff he didn't see he told me I was trying to blackmail him with a bad review and to go to a clinic who can provide the level of service we are expecting. We only expect SERVICE. ANY SERVICE. Trying to support local does not always pay off. Now I have to go somewhere else mid vaccine cycle and I am still dealing with the aftermath of a sick cat they neglected for days. I was not going to mention the front desk woman who refuses to make eye contact or even say good morning but I am. None of these people want to do this job. Highly recommend going somewhere that cares about an animal who is not a horse I guess? Weʻre new to the area and excited to have a local vet. Not so much. And they are not excited to have new patients. 1500 hundred bucks here in 2 days, and for nothing! read more

Took our beloved dog to Badger Creek Vet, Dr Chandler for a neutering. Sadley, the outcome was devastating, and I feel the care provided was substandard. I'm sharing my story to encourage others to ask questions, seek second opinions and advocate strongly for there pets. Dr Chandler did not handle things properly and did not take reasonability and we ended up paying a substantial amount out of pocket to save our pets life. read more

I unfortunately had to bring our sweet boy Douglas in for euthanasia. I have worked in the veterinary field all my life and to say these people are amazing is an understatement. They showed so much care and compassion. I can't thank them enough. read more

We took in our senior cat in and were impressed with how helpful the staff was . Our senior cat had a tooth infection, luckily the tooth didn't need to get pulled. He got a cleaning ,laser gum treatment, and some antibiotics. The cost was far less than what we'd be normally be quoted by other vets in the area. read more

really miss the old staff. I really know dr hunter is a great vet. I am sad that he is planning on retiring soon.

My pup got septic while getting neutered at badger ( Dr Chandler). Don't recommend!!! We're in debt paying for his recovery at UC Davis. Still ongoing 3 months later permanent heart problem from lesion due to septic. read more

I'm pretty sure Bjorn (3 1/2 yr old rottie) keeps finding reasons to come back! He loves the gals here and so do I! They take such great care of my baby! Always get him in fast and are reasonably priced! read more

See all

Our experience at Badger Creek was seriously amazing. This hidden gem was recommended by our dog groomer and was a true find. We were able to get an appointment right away and from the first phone call to the staff and Dr, we experienced kind and professional service. We are proud to say that Badger Creek is our new vet. If you are looking for a vet, this is the real deal! read more

My husband and I took our 3-year-old GSP to check out why he was sneezing so much, and they took care of the issue quickly and efficiently. They were so friendly and polite throughout our visit to this vet. I recommend them 10000%. read more

So sad I called Bader Creek Small Animal my vet! Supported them when NO ONE did loved Amy! Now new vet and total price gouging! Sad I am in the animal world dogs, cattle & horses! I will never recommend Badger Creek!! They say 1 bad experience 10 people know I tell everyone! Be careful if you go get a quote they are outrageous and the new vet is not seasoned enough to properly diagnose your petand Dr Hunter is NOT a small animal vet! They are about the money not your pet! DISAPPOINTED read more

They have very nice people on staff. However, I am mostly disappointed with their services I have taken my pet to the clinic as a follow up for a treatment that did not yield any results. The suggestion was to run the same exams as previously performed. I felt this was going to be a case of taking the same steps hoping for different results, so I declined. When I went to pick up my pet, the clinic was closed for lunch which I was not aware of. The sign on the door did not state they were closed for lunch. The information on Yelp and Google didn't state that either. Someone did let me in and let someone in the back I was there. I was still make to wait 30 minutes before I could be helped. I may have to get a second opinion on my pet's issues somewhere else. As for Badger, I wish them the best but until they improve, it is not a place I can recommend. read more

Took our dog in to get biopsy done on mass. They said mass was not cancerous . Cost us 830.00. Took her back in 10 days later for a teeth cleaning. She died there. Asked about refund of ,800.00. NOPE. As someone else said in reviews...for them it's all about money. They were sorry, but basically. Sorry read more

My poor pup wasn't eating,having diarrhea and vomiting. I had called 9 different vet offices and ALL we booked solid (Even Badger Creek). A few places were booked for weeks out. Some even stated I could sit and wait in their office in case they have time but would charge an additional fee of $200.00+, not including exam, xrays and any other tests needed. Anyway, fast forward an hour goes by and Badger Creek called me back and knew how worried I was and they said to just come in and that they will make sure to see him in between appointments by the days end no matter what. I was so grateful and rushed him right over! They took care of him and were so detailed in everything they provided him with, meds testing and so on. I was so grateful they didn't tack on an enormous emergency fee and everything was fairly priced. But most importantly my pup was going to be ok.. read more

My cat stopped eating and didn't feel well. I had been going to VCA Bradshaw, but there was no appointment available for 2 months. I reached out to my Wilton Nextdoor Neighbors and one of them recommended Badger Creek Vets. I called them and told them what was going on and they got me in IMMEDIATELY. The facility is very clean and pleasant. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, my cat was diagnosed with cancer and had two masses in his abdomen and chest. As a result, I had to put him to sleep. It was a really bad day. These people are the kindest people I could have ever hoped for. Dr. Hunter was so wonderful and Jodie's big heart helped me deal with everything that was going on. I can tell you that if you need a 5-star vet, this is the place. read more

Five years ago I gave Badger Creek Veterinary Clinic a 5 star review. A lot has changed since then The owners of the clinic hired a new veterinarian named Jeremy Chandler, not too far out of veterinary school, with no customer service skills at all. Dr. Chandler fired the old staff that everyone liked, and hired a bunch of "rubes" like him as his support staff. My first issue with him was when I ordered a critically needed type of medicine for one of my Golden Retrievers. Chandler promised I would have it within a week and it turned out to be close to 3 weeks before I got the medication. Chandler then complained that he had to get the medicine from another distributor which cost him more money. Another of my Golden Retrievers experienced some rectal bleeding, and when I called their office to talk to Dr. Chandler to advise me if I should take it to an emergency clinic or not, his rude office staff member reminded me that he was not available, and they were not an emergency clinic. The staff member then hung up the phone while I was still talking to her. The staff members ultimate excuse, was that she thought I was through talking to her on the telephone. I took the dog to the Emergency Clinic, and my Golden was given some pills to solve the problem. I made an appointment with Dr. Chandler a few days later, and he advised that my dog had an ear infection, and he wanted to monitor the bleeding issue and ear infection within a few weeks. Dr. Chandler did not seem concerned that his office staff member hung up the telephone in the middle of our conversation. A couple of weeks later on May 31, 2024 I arrived at my appointment with Dr. Chandler for my dog, and brought my cat in also to have her nails trimmed with a tech, which was a common practice at this clinic, that did not require a separate appointment. A heavy set female, who did not identify herself walked out to me, and told me not to bring the cat in again without an appointment. As you can read the veterinarians staff has no people skills. After the cats nails were done, the same female came lumbering out from the back room, and wanted to take my Golden Retriever to the back of the office with her. I told her the practice had always been for the tech to come out and get my dog and I together and take us to a side room where we waited for the veterinarian to enter. I told the heavy set employee that I would just wait until someone came out to put me in a room with my dog and wait for the veterinarian. Dr. Chandler eventually came out and stated that he would not see my sick dog, because I was giving his staff a bad time. I advised him that "you are going to abandon your patient, because you want to defend your incompetent staff? Dr. Chandler stated again that he would not see the dog. I left with my dog and made an appointment with another veterinarian. I came back to Badger Creek clinic later in the day to have my records sent to my new veterinarian hospital. i talked to Dr. Chandler outside of his office, and advised him that I was reporting him to the State Board which governs veterinarians in California, and I hoped that they would pull his license because he basically abandoned a sick animal that needed his help, and chose to defend his unprofessional staff instead. Not only did Dr. Chandler violate the State Veterinary Code of Ethics, but as a new veterinarian he is clueless as to what his duties are to his patients and NOT his staff. If you cannot find him when you go into their office, (because he is 4-6 in height in high heels),, one of his staff members will pick him up and place him on top of a reception counter top, and you can speak to him at eye level. Chandler does not deserve the title of being a doctor, as he needs to have his license pulled permanently. We will see if the State Board is more concerned about the welfare of an animal or just protecting an unscrupulous veterinarian and his staff. Larry Carli read more

Our issue wasn't resolved and my dog is dealing with his condition.I know they tried to do what they could but I paid a lot of money for nothing.The clinic was good to get us in to be seen in a pinch because every other clinic is booked read more

Kelly , Arturo are great , the whole staff, I took my dog in for an ear problem , Kelly cleaned her ears, Arturo clipped my dogs nails , gave me a prescription on off I went , so easy , and they are all so helpful and kind !!! I really appreciate them ... Stacy read more

Operated on my animal without my consent when I specifically asked for an assessment only. They said it was because they were understaffed and blamed me for needing their services on short notice. This is Illegal and an irresponsible way to run a business. Veterinary work is below standards. read more

The old staff used to be good. The new ones are terrible. New help Jean is as fake as they come. Avoid this place.

Dr. Hunter and his staff are great! They are all so helpful, nice and were able to get my two dogs' appointments within a week. In fact, I called on a Thursday because the dog that I just adopted was itching really bad and they asked if I wanted to drop her off on Friday so they could get to the bottom of what was causing her to itch so badly. I really appreciate having a trustworthy vet close by and at a great price point. read more

I am new to the area and took both my dogs in for exams and to get them established, I also needed a refill of my senior dog's Proin 50mg prescription. I was charged $65 for each exam, the most incomplete exams ever, and $140 for the prescription. I have never paid more than $85 for the prescription. I called around to check that price with other offices and apparently $85 IS the normal price. Then a few days later I received a bill for $.20 that they forgot to charge me. WHAT? !!? The stamp cost more than that. I think it's a shame when offices like this gouge their clients when they're trying to do the right thing and take care of the pets they love. The result of this is that unfortunately a lot of people stop taking their animals to the vet when they should. Shame on you Badger Creek!! read more

It saddens me to write this poor review, because I really want Badger Creek Vet to succeed and respect the owner very much. However after supporting their business for some time and witnessing the systemic problems of constant turnover, poor communication, and poor office management, I can only conclude that this side business of Hunter Stallion Station is not a venture the owner particularly cares about. There are some great employees (like Cheri and Shannon) who strive to give compassionate care and quality service, but they seem to be fighting an uphill battle. Phone calls go unanswered, messages aren't returned, and often no one seems to know what's going on. I've been overcharged, double charged, scheduled an appointment with a specific vet only to arrive and be told she didn't work there any more, showed for an appointment to find "my" vet had to leave (an equine vet covered, but I prefer being given the choice), and have had to wait over thirty minutes to be seen (due to general disorganization, not any emergency). Most recently, I've had to make repeated calls over several days - first to find out lab results because no one had called with them, and then to speak to the vet to clarify the results because the office staff did not have to ability to do so. It's been a battle to get the services I paid for, and I've already chosen a different practice for my dog's surgery because of this. Fingers crossed that Badger Creek fixes what's ailing their practice. A little concern for customer satisfaction and perception would go a long way. read more

I am still in awe over the level of care , compassion, and kindness that this office provided me and my 17 year old cat, Milo. Long story short, it was time to put Milo down and it was Veterans Day. My vet was off that day , so I called my good friend Ann Dickson (a saint), to help facilitate a vet appt,. I knew that she would know how to help us. She set up the appt for us. Milo does not do cages, so we left for our last , but most important car ride. We got there early, and glad we did, this office is more of a farm, nestled in between trees and green pastures. They were so welcoming , came out to my car to bring me the pertinent forms, asked if I needed anything to drink, (I don't even know these people). Milo and I sat outside looking st the beautiful scenery, I held onto every last moment I had with my lil old man. The young doctor was the best, he even gave me a hug. I had Milo cremated, but had to wait for financial reasons . That was in Nov of 2017. They allowed me to make payments and I called last week to pay it off. They had just had his private cremation done, I was shocked since the balance had not been paid. This was first class service with a heart. They never, ever called to remind me of the balance due , who does that anymore? Suffice to say , 5 months and 3 days later (tomorrow) I will pick up my beloved cat. Need I say more, my heart is filled with love and adoration for them. Thank you does not even cover it . read more

They are friendly enough. However, when I found out my dog needed a prescription & couldn't get into see a specialist for several weeks I asked if they could prescribe what I needed, they said the doctor would examine her & give her what was appropriate. Of course when brought her in, they wouldn't, so it was a complete waste of time & $ since they wouldn't even check on the situation for me as I asked, before hand. read more

This WAS my cats vet, but when she needed to be treated under emergency, I was told to wait a week to be seen! Horrible service level. There is NO emergency treatment here, they only want to treat healthy animals. read more

Horrible experience. Will never EVER set foot in this vet office again. Only one star because it's a requirement to post. Would give it a big fat zero otherwise. read more

Badger Creek takes very good care of both my dogs! Very considerate, never a long wait time, very friendly staff. Also accommodating to payment! There has been more than one occasion someone had to pay over the phone and its never an issue. The vets are always knowledgeable and answer all my questions. I never feel rushed or not a priority while there. Definitely go during the day for parking, it's limited. read more

Badger creek has been an amazing vet for all of our family's pets. I couldn't be happier with the service every time I have gone. All of these low star reviews are ridiculous and in no way represent this Vets performance! read more

Great vets on staff. Was able to get my horse in same day appt. Very reasonable fees for all they did. My dogs exam fee was cheaper than most vets and so were his meds. I'm super close by so getting to them isn't an issue. Would refer and recc the vets there to anyone. Thank you Dr Hunter and Dr Philpott for all you did for Tari and Dr Jackson for getting my dogs meds for him in less than 24 hours. read more

We had been here a few months ago and were very happy with their service. But when we arrived for our new appointment, I was surprised to be closely questioned by both the vet tech (who excused herself by saying she was following directions) and a woman vet about my refusal to allow a rabies shot. We were not there for shots, and his immunity is still valid against rabies. I was told they would muzzle my dog as they had no proof of the shot. That was ok. But the vet went on to say that my breed of dog "had a bad reputation for biting "--he is a Canine Good Citizen and has been extensively trialed and shown, never nipped anyone or even come close to it! After this insulting remark, she went on to say she didn't want to need to be quarantined and miss work if his saliva dripped on her--this isn't how rabies is spread! And no way would a shot protect her immediately if he did have rabies, which he doesn't! I waited for 1/2 hour while the vet and tech consulted someone/something out of the room before they decided to go ahead and do what we were there for. read more
