Do Not bring dogs with a traumatic past here. I brought my girl here and we adopted her about 5-6…read moreyears ago from a shelter who saved her from an abusive environment. I communicated to the techs that she is very skittish and has came from an abusive home. They either disregarded this remark or didn't have the necessary experience to understand the situation and handled her just as any dog. Due to this she did react negatively and bit a tech. They then came back and told me I was lucky that it didn't cause any bleeding otherwise they would've quarantined her at the pound. I am not sure how more clear I could be saying this dog came from an abused home and is skittish. She has never bitten anyone as long as I've had her but how my communication was disregarded and how she was handled escalated the situation unnecessarily which almost resulted the to quarantining my dog.

We have taken my first dog here for the past 2 years with no issues. However, whenever my partner…read moreand I got our puppy, things started to go downhill. We had her put in the daycare program this care center and one day when I picked her up, she was sneezing, coughing and had a runny nose. The daycare staff didn't mention anything to me and my other dog also quickly started sneezing and coughing. My puppy contracted kennel cough from either another infected dog or contaminated surface/object and brought it to my other dog from the daycare. They were both diagnosed with kennel cough here. Then in a recent visit about a few weeks ago, I believe it was a vet tech who asked me if I wanted to get bloodwork done on a general wellness visit on one of my dogs. I declined, saying that he needed to get it done anyway soon in another visit. She insisted on telling me it would be cheaper to do it now and kept pressing me on it. I said I'd think about it. When we went to the room with the Dr., I told her (the doctor) that I'd like to wait on his bloodwork because we'd have to do it again and I'd like less stress for him, even if it would be more expensive to wait. She looked at me and said it wouldn't be more expensive to wait, that it would cost the same. That blew my mind. I understand that mistakes happen, but that made me feel very uncomfortable. I've never had an experience like that here. And the final straw happened last week. I boarded both of our dogs there for the weekend for the first time. One of them came back just fine, but the other has had diarrhea for a week straight. My partner and I both called, he was told it didn't sound like it was an emergency because she had no other symptoms. He called again a day or so later and was told she should've been brought in. We came in and did not get a definitive answer other than it was probably the stress of the boarding. I was told the dogs had a great time. A week of pure liquid being sprayed out of the wrong end tells me otherwise. I asked the vet to do a fecal test on her to be safe, to which he agreed, but he did not do it. Now our other dog is also ill and having awful diarrhea. We also disclosed that she was in heat, which is unfortunate because she needs to be spayed. For this appointment we had a different Dr. He said he actually preferred animals to be in heat for a spay because it elongates their uterus. What he did not mention is that spaying while in heat is generally not recommended and poses severe health risks (such as excessive bleeding). I had received a second opinion from another vet and was informed of the risks. I would never put my puppy in a situation where her life could be at risk for a matter of convenience. For these reasons, we can no longer bring our pets here

He kept him alive, enjoying quality of life for the last several years after he was diagnosed with both renal and heart issues. He always accommodated my work schedule in order to provide the care and did so with compassion and gentleness. A few days ago Maurice started having seizures and Dr. Pete tried every medication and treatment available in order to save him. He came to the phone and spoke to me personally multiple times over the course of the the 8 days leading up to his demise. When he suffered a stroke we knew that he was suffering and gasping for breath. Dr. Pete assisted our boy with a painless and peaceful escape to eternal rest. He was extremely caring and it was obvious that it was hard for him to see Maurice in such distress and was deeply moved himself as he fulfilled his patient's care for the last time. He also made all the arrangements for a private cremation so that we could keep him forever with our family in his beautiful tiny urn. I recommend Dr. Pete and his staff completely. We, as well as our Maurice trusted them 100%.

Dr Mayer was very thorough. He did a full exam to be sure nothing else was going on. I never felt rushed. He really seemed to care and interested in Harvey's daily routine.

Harvey loved Dr Mayer and every staff member he met. I use medicated wipes on Harvey's bulldog facial wrinkles. The clinic ordered them for me and I was able to pick them up the next day. I'm so glad we found this clinic. I highly recommend it!

Dr. Hise's care set a standard impressive enough that we are reevaluating our current veterinary care at home.

Best Veterinarian in Lafayette and surrounding area for BIRDS. There aren't many vets that really…read moreknow what they are doing with avians, but Broussard Clinic is one of the few and the best. I recommend this vet for all parrot and bird owners. A vet that knows birds vs. a vet that is only guessing could be the difference between life and death for a pet as delicate as a bird. Myself and a co-worker who both own parrots have brought our birds here and have been very pleased with the knowledge of the staff, especially Dr. Marullo. I took off one star on the review only because the front desk staff can sometimes be a bit short with you and rude especially on the phone, but the Dr. is super great.

I can't imagine having had a worse experience with a vet clinic. Aside from Dr. Fontenot telling…read moremy husband that she dislikes our breed of dog, A German Shepard, she let him walk out of her practice a year ago, claiming he had a false positive heartworm test. Fast-forward one year and we recently took him back there for his annual visit, and low and behold, he has heartworms. None of the issues we took him in for were addressed and Fontenot didn't even have the common decency to come out to the car (being they are still doing curbside only) to explain his course of treatment. Instead, she sent a vet tech out to our car to try and accuse us of skipping our dog's heartworm preventative ( of which I have records to prove that he has never missed). Accountability is everything in this world. Had she retested him a year ago, perhaps she would have found that indeed his first result was not a false positive. Instead, she is so quick to get everyone out of there. Not thorough at all! Profit only! Additionally, we cannot get this clinic to give our dog the heartworm preventative they are now recommending. They will not authorize his meds through third party services and have been giving me the run around for over a week about technical difficulties with their online store. Overall, this vet is highly incompetent and I believe that because she has such disdain for our dog's breed, she was hoping he would die of heartworms. Please do not bring your pets to this joke of an establishment.

Not the worst experience of my life but definitely not the best…read more I was born and raised in south Louisiana, true Cajun. This is far from the southern hospitality I'm accustomed to seeing... Maybe I caught them on a bad day? First, they only have one doctor on staff and you can expect to wait upwards of thirty minutes to see him in the waiting area. The lady behind the counter doesn't really want to know you or why you're there and her attitude sucked... The visit felt very rushed especially after discovering my dog had heart worms. We rescued this dog not know he had the heart worms and were genuinely concerned for his health. I really didn't feel like they cared about our furry little friend. I'm not saying they have to personally care but on some level that is what vets are suppose to do, CARE for you pet... I would look elsewhere. Update: We took our pet to a vet in Texas and were informed that the heart worm treatment method they wanted to use here was outdated and dangerous.

Dr. Broussard is hands down one of the most compassionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring vets I have ever met. When you walk in, the front desk staff are always welcoming, patient, kind, and helpful. They treat you like family instead of "just another appointment." Even when things are hectic, they still manage to be friendly and reassuring, which means a lot when you're stressed about your pets. But Dr. Broussard is truly the heart of that clinic. You can tell immediately that he genuinely loves animals and cares deeply about the people attached to them too. Over the years, he has cared for so many of my cats and pets through everything from routine visits to scary emergencies, and I have always trusted his judgment completely. He takes the time to explain things clearly, never makes you feel rushed, and treats every animal with patience and kindness. Finding a veterinarian you trust for 20+ years is rare these days, and I honestly cannot imagine bringing my animals anywhere else. If you want a vet clinic where the staff is amazing, the care is top-notch, and your pets are treated like they matter, this is the place. 10/10 recommend. My furry little chaos goblins approve too.
