The staff treats us with the utmost respect, always going above and beyond. They understand that my husband doesn't always remember everything, so they make sure to call me and go over the details to ensure I understand. They're truly compassionate and thorough. Yes, they might be a bit more expensive than other vets, but for the level of service and peace of mind you get, it's absolutely worth it

Dr. Kenney is a very kind hearted human that genuinely cares about animals. She was always understanding and she thoroughly took the time to help my ailing cat. I have seen the other doctors and they are all very kind as well. The vet techs were always nice and Bret was always my go to guy for handling my cat. I even took my rooster that was sick and Dr.Kenney was great, she gave me medication for him and he was feeling better within 24 hours. I can't say enough nice things about this hospital, believe me I've seen close to ten different doctors in my cat's lifetime and Dr. Kenney was the best!

My husband heard through where he works, several people recommend AVS. My Golden had a small lump on his head and I wanted a 2nd opinion as my previous vet wanted to surgically remove it. Doc B took one look at it, asked what I was feeding my dog, told me to change to another and healthier brand of kibble, and it would likely go away in a few days. IT DID. She saved my dog the pain of surgery not to mention my pocketbook! She also found a low grade heart murmur that the other vet missed. Told me about a supplement for the heart I can get on amazon and it has lowered his murmur! The staff is amazingly friendly and helpful as well. Love Dr. B!

Ga area and now we have retired here. I met Dr. Kinsey when I purchased my horses and he was the only vet in this area that would travel to where the horses were at and do a pre-purchase check up. I had an issue with a horse last year , hoof issue. He again responded quickly and provided me with medication and treatment needed daily twice a day. Now we have sold all our horses. We are full time residents in Young Harris now and we will use him for our 3 dogs, German Shepherd, A Chowski, Husky-Chow mix and our older Terrier . He's efficient, knowledgeable and just a all around great vet.
