Have been taking cats here for years. Love the Staff and Doctors, friendly and knowledgeable. Have one cat that needs monthly shots and they get us in and take care of him. They take the time needed to talk and discuss what I need to. Would highly recommend. read more

Jason Galicki gave my 7 year old Schnoodle three vaccines all at one time. He told us our dog was very healthy. Two weeks later our dog was bleeding and we took a urine sample in as we couldn't get an appt. until the next day. They kept our dog for testing and told us he was full of cancer. He died two days later. I have since found out that he died from the vaccines. His bone marrow was 2 instead of 200. They told me the vaccines had nothing to do with it. I called for an appt. with Galicki and they wouldn't give me one as I didn't have a dog. Galicki was supposed to call me and never did. I wouldn't take a snake to Blackman. BEWARE read more

The staff at Blackman saved my dog's life after she and my husband were viciously attacked by a loose dog. They helped her pull through when we were sure we were going to lose her. read more

HIGH prices and lack of information & very poor service for the $200 you charged my papa. We have 2 Shih tzu(s) That has come here and the service is very sub-par and expensive. Prices are made up on the spot and they take you for whatever they feel, 10mins $200 later with ridiculous advice I'd like my money reimbursed just Gouging us during a Pandemic is disgusting. Not recommend here. Rude receptionist(s) they take ADVANTAGE of my elderly papa's wallet and other older people. Then they push their EXPENSIVE Medicine and bash other medicines like k9 advantix 2 and advecta 3, in my opinion they WORK WELL it's just that your clinic don't make money from it and you shove your overpriced Blackman clinic meds at people and say they are the best so people believe you, dirty business tactics here. Very underhanded and not recommended. Legal thieves read more

Hello ,first i want to say thank you to the staff at blackman, im sure you are aware of our doggos dilemma, upon his first visit for a wellness check and to have his anal glands expressed, he was recovering ok but then became constipated again, we called the vet and said he had a large swelling on his left side of his tale, without recommending or listening to us to be seen again he was simply put on more antibiotics. at the end of that batch of antibiotics the growth had not diminished and we brought him back in tuesday , the vet shocked my wife and i by shoving his thumb into the buldge then squeezing very hard, im sure the whole clinic heard doggos blood curdling screams,the vet showed us a thick excretion he squeezed out saying it was anal gland fluid and recommended more anti biotics and anti inflammatory, we asked will that get rid of the stuff in the swelling he said probably not but he should be able to pass it. the next step would be tranquilize him and remove it, well after he hurt doggo so bad with the squeezing i lost all trust in the vet. after we took doggo home he stopped eating and the vets squeezing the growth apparently completely blocked the anal canal. doggo and i were up all afternoon and night with doggo trying to go to the bathroom to absolutely no success. the next morning i called another vet and explained the situation, they immediately said bring him in and did a procedure to remove the growth imagine our surprise when we found out it was not fluid in his anal gland but a golfball sized chunk of dried fecal matter. doggo is a chihuahua we picked doggo up at 1:45 and he and i both slept all afternoon as we were both beat from being up for 16 hours in pain . doggo is doing great, he is eating normally and having normal bowel movement again, thanks to the staff for your kindness, not so much for the vets ignorance and apparent lack of feeling for our pet, P.S we wont be back. read more

It has been barely over a month since we had to have our beloved Chico put down due to congestive heart. We had been treating him for this for several years. Doctor Jason was his primary doctor and we like him however we are done with Blackman after 20 some years. The euthanasia process under "Dr. Christy" was absolutely horrific. We were told to pull around back and come in that door which turned out to be a garage. It as "delightfully" equip with three cheap plastic lawn chairs (they most likely bought from Dollar General next door) surrounding a hasset. In came Christy and her assistant. No, they didn't try and comfort my baby or barely acknowledged his presence but were quite ready to present me with the bill so that could be taken care of "first". Done so back they came, injecting Chico with a a sedative, and immediately leaving me all alone with my withering in pain Chihuahua. Finally he relaxed in my arms and after about 10 minutes " Christy" return with the final shot to send him on. We so miss the guy but you, know a never call or card from Blackman whatsoever. I'm done with them. Now go and give your pets a hug!!! read more

I've been going to BAC for years. The care is outstanding and very caring. My one 18 year old kitty developed Pancreatitis, and we didn't think she would make it. She did, and is back to her old self. I'd never go anywhere else. read more

Unfortunately, I will no longer be taking any of my pets to Blackman Animal Clinic. When I arrived for our appointment I informed the tech that checked me in, Brittany, that my pets had gone through a trauma (house fire) and that they would need to be very cautious in treating them as they were still very frightened. Brittany was rude and cold and answered my questions and statements with one word answers and "uh huh". My pets were there for a routine checkup. I received a call 10 minutes into my pets exam from Dr. Christy stating that my pet was combative and uncontrollable. Dr. Christy's tone was rude and accusatory. I asked her if the technician that retrieved my pet had relayed that they had been through a trauma and would need to be treated cautiously and Dr. Christy had no idea what I was talking about. At that point I was in tears thinking of my pet being traumatized again by an organization that specializes in helping animals. Me and my pets were met with no compassion, no kindness, no caring from the staff. After 35+ years of my family taking our pets to Blackman Animal Clinic we will now be looking for another vet. read more

Honestly not a great clinic. They charge ridiculous prices for spaying and neuterings by requiring mandatory "wellness checks" and sneaking in items that have nothing to do with an their self proclaimed "all inclusive neutering". The $50 wellness check they required me to have for my cat was them taking his temperature, a glance at his teeth, and listening to his heartbeat. Uh, no. I would way recommend Gaide Animal Clinic over this clinic. Much superior facility, more efficient, and much more competitive prices. read more

Very Unfortunate and upsetting I have to write this but due to the severity of the issue we are left with no choice but to get this information to future pet owners that might choose this place to take their loving family pets to. We have been with this vet clinic for over 9 years and in the past 2 years the place has gone down hill from the services to communication between staff and proper documentation. I will give a very brief story as we had taken our new puppy here for an exam as he was limping was given the cost of x-rays and medications which we did. He seemed to get better but re-injured the area and when I called I was told to keep him on the pain medication until his one year visit when his bones would have matured by then by Dr. Jason, well during this time frame we were due for a wellness exam and talked about getting him neutered (there was a issue during this visit that I had questions about) my husband did not talk with the doctor at this visit just the tech! I called and was told there was notes placed on file about this issue that was not relayed back to my spouse. I called another vet clinic to get a second opinion and that is when we were made aware of more serious issues! they never took the appropriate x-rays to determine if the injury was indeed something that needed to be looked at by a specialist on top of the medication they prescribe was gabapentin which is not to help with inflammation like we were told. I would like to add that not only were we told if the proper care would have been handled right the first time instead of waiting until he was a year old we could have corrected the issue but now we are looking into possibly therapy or even surgery once we get the results back from MSU. I will also add after a conversation with Dr. Christy on the phone she apologized that she could see there was absolutely no follow up or check ups done. I am very ashamed in the type of care we were given and truly hope the future of Blackman Animal Clinic changes how they treat their patients but along with the customers these animals are NOT JUST ''PETS" read more

DR Christy is a great vet & very sweet & friendly. I would still go there except the staff leaves a lot to be desired. The assistants are good but the office staff is HORRIBLE! Rude and very weird to say the least. I'd go back there is she got rid of a few of them read more

This place has really turned into a pathetic, greedy, and horrific place. Our family dog of16 years went in on 11/17/20 for a wellness check, rabies vaccination, and nail trimming. Took 10 min and cost $85. The tech came out to the car and said that our dogs "heart was beating and his lungs are breathing". That was it. No possible way they did a wellness check and def not one that justifies $85. The day after this wellness check our dog could barely walk. Figuring it was from the rabies shot we called Blackman to just make sure it was a normal side effect. They told us that it "could be, or if we wanted to just out him down we could". WTH! No. Why would we waste $85 bucks the day before if all we wanted to do was put him down. On 11/23/20 our family dog of 16 years was put down. His walk was getting better, he wasn't eating, and he yelped in pain anytime we tried to touch him. We took him to Blackman thinking they would actually try to help him but all they did was tell us there was nothing we could do and showed no compassion or sympathy. We decided that it wasn't fair to keep him living life like this so we decided to put him down. Blackman would not let us be with him while they put him down and would even accept his blanket he always slept on. Instead they charged us $118 and walked away with our family dog not even letting us say goodbye. This place is despicable, greedy, cold-hearted, and just simply shameful. Our family has used Blackman for a long time but after this we wouldn't even step foot in their parking lot. For a place that is supposed to have love and affection for animals they did not show an ounce of respect or compassion or love for our family pet of 16 years. Damn shame. read more

My favorite clinic I've taken my animals to. Have been going there for almost 2 years. Very convenient with same day appointments when my animals have needed to be looked at rather sooner than later. All around friendly staff :) read more

Office staff is extremely rude. Quoted prices two times and was charged more both times for getting my dogs fixed. The second time was 100$ more! No one there seemed to care at all that I was upset about it. Will not be returning again. read more

They have restored a lot of confidence i had previously lost in other area vets. They have been very thorough in the care of my pup before and after surgery, even calling to follow up a few days after and see how we were doing. I am so far happy with their service. Keep up the good work. read more

They are not a good clinic since the senior vets have left. They have no knowledge of large animals which almost caused a larger problem for my gelding due to their stupidity. Their staff is not welcoming or friendly in anyway. I recommend Oakdale if you have a large animal that needs care. read more

Excellent Vets!! Christy and Suzi are always on point and provide excellent care for our fur babies!

Although my dog is terrified of the vet I love this place. They did an excellent job with his stitches, and also take great care of him there! They are very gentle, and caring, and also take the time to answer any questions! They even have treats to give when you are finished. There are always at least 5 people there while I am waiting. The Vets, Receptionists, and Vet Techs are GREAT! I feel they are also reasonably charged compared to other vets, and are flexible with paying in sections if needed over time. Will be taking my dog here in March for him to get neutered. :) read more
