They gave our puppy multiple vaccinations all at once (7) and she's been miserable ever since. She's had loose stools for the last 9 days. We went in just wanting a rabies shot but they talked us into getting all these shots at once. This was horrible advice and I regret going to this place. I've since learned that it's standard practice to split up that many shots rather than giving them all at once. I now question their competency. read more

This is a great vet. They have gone out of their way on multiple occasions to help our animals. They were always so friendly and kind and professional. They don't overcharge for unnecessary procedures and testing and were the only vet in Dallas that could bring out dog back to full health after getting a nasty infection after surgery. We tried Lakewood and VEG and City Vet was hands down the best vet in Dallas. read more

Walked into this location with vaccination info & my 13 yr. old dog b/c she had terrible GI problems. Another vet would not schedule an appointment to see her the same day! City Vet worked her into the schedule and gave her excellent care. Sent me home with meds and instructions on how to administer them. Lauren was very kind & knowledgeable so I will be returning in the future. read more

Brought my pup here since he wasn't eating or drinking - was able to get squeezed in same day. The check in was easy and wait wasn't too bad. The staff including the Dr. We're extremely friendly. Got my pup on his meds and we were on our way. read more

Best vet in the area by far! Our dog had a dental cleaning and it was phenomenal. Vet staff is attentive and thorough. The prices are very reasonable too. read more

Dr. Farr is an amazing, thorough practitioner and loves all her cuddly patients. I'm so grateful we found her. She performed surgery on our cat with care and made sure we were updated the whole time. Her treatment plans put the animals best interest first. read more

If I could give more stars I would! I had an EXCELLENT experience. They went above and beyond yesterday to help my little dog. Not only did they fit her in immediately to take care of her, they were so caring and knowledgeable. Highly recommend! read more

I do not write many reviews but I must let everyone who has pets know about CityVet-Lovers Lane (actually off Greenville) in Dallas. I have had several vets for my dogs in the past and it is a blessing that CityVet Oak Lawn was too busy to see my fur baby and they suggested the Lovers Lane location. The place is super clean and never crowded and Dr. Melkus is the best!! She takes time to explain things to you about your baby. Other places I am in and out in a minute or two. Not here. Dr. Melkus really cares and that makes me feel special. My Timmy has found a new doctor and I am proud to give them my highest recommendation. They also do great grooming as well. This place is worth the drive because you know your baby is in good hands. Glad I found them! read more

I have to sincerely thank City Vet for going above expectations. I had issues with my insurance company due to a change in their business structure. The receptionist followed up by submitting all the information necessary to file a claim. It is greatly appreciated. read more

I had tried several groomers after relocating to Dallas, until I finally found the best at CityVet on Lovers. My Portuguese Water Dog looks like his best self-and he knows it! read more

I brought my cat here a few months after adopting her from a rescue to get an overall checkup and updated vaccinations. At first I was really impressed. Both the vet tech and the vet were so nice and their "bedside manner" was excellent. Besides an ear infection, they sent us on our way saying she looks great. We ended up relocating to a different city for a few months and visited a different vet a month later as our cat's ear infection wasn't going away with the meds we received (not a big deal.) After giving her an overall check, the new vet was horrified when she saw the extent of our cat's periodontal disease. Please keep in mind we're first-time cat owners and the rescue told us she was in healthy condition, so we weren't aware of the periodontal disease initially. We had to schedule an emergency tooth cleaning and she ended up having to get 12 teeth extracted. We're extremely disappointed by the lack of attention to detail we experienced at CityVet Lovers Lane. We trusted them to do their due diligence and they failed, mind you hundreds of dollars later. Our cat was in severe pain for longer than she needed to be because they didn't do a proper and thorough check. While I appreciate the friendliness, how do you miss something so easy to check? read more

Dr. Tomblin is great! My puppy's vaccination schedule was off - they revised their puppy vaccination visit charges to accommodate a 4th visit for the remaining vaccines, without charging me. Charges are reasonable and they really listen and address all your concerns and questions. read more

Great staff! Super kind and professional. My dog was so anxious and they made sure to take their time to make my dog comfy!! My dog is not the easiest because of her nervousness but they treated her so kindly. read more

See all

Staff is outstanding! Haircut needs to be shorter since I mentioned a summer cut but not shave. Looks like a simple trim was done. Also, nails are sharp & need to be buffed down to a smooth surface. read more

The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because today was my first and only experience with them but it was great!! I'm new to this side of town and don't have an established vet so I was nervous to have to shop around really quick when my cats paw became swollen and he couldn't walk on it. They were able to get me in that day and everyone there was so super nice and gentle and took the time to breakdown what they were doing and the costs with every step. Within the span of an hour I was seen, my cat was x-rayed (nothing broken, probably just got bit by something), and I was sent off with pain meds and antibiotics for a grand total of $300! Flawless experience I will most likely be making these guys my go to vet while I'm living here :~) read more

Dr. Melkus and her staff are amazing. My senior dog swallowed a handful of items while I was out of town and he was at boarding. I took him in and he was taken care of and in surgery the next morning. She kept me updated with pictures and gave me a detailed explanation of everything going on. Not only did he recover, but I had to bring him back in a second time for some dental issues and again she explained everything and kept me updated and made sure my dog was taken care of. I highly recommend Dr. Melkus and CityVet - Lovers Lane. read more

Never coming back here again. I brought my doodle in to get groomed at 7:45 in the morning. When I came to pick him up (close to 4:45) he was still getting worked on. His head wasn't even done! When I went to meet the groomer she complained for 20 minutes about how nervous he was and how she wasn't happy with the result...I paid $100 for his haircut. Please do not tell a paying customer that you didn't do a good job. She proceeded to give excuse after excuse. If I was a puppy get groomed for the first time stuck all day in a kennel with other dogs barking around me I would be pretty nervous too. As groomers you have to be able to work on nervous, aggressive, and all types of dogs. I was extremely put off by her remarks, and will not be returning. read more

The receptionist Calista was very helpful. They have a loyalty rewards program and give you $50 your first time there. Dr. Melkus was very knowledgeable and sweet and you can tell she loves her job. read more

Dr. Tomblin is the best, as are the staff members and the manager, Ashley! High quality services for affordable prices. They check with you before any major expenses are incurred. The facility is clean. They work with your schedule and budget. They send your reminders for vaccines. Every single person at this clinic cares about your pet! This clinic has exceeded my already high expectations. read more

When my dog started acting a bit off, I searched reviews for hours north near McKinney/Allen... eventually, I decided to text our rescue coordinator who has seen it all. Hands down her one true and shining reliable diagnostic vet was Dr. Farr. Being all the way in Allen, her recommendation was so great I had to try it, and I'm thankful I did. Having been to a lot of vet offices and seen a lot of good vets through working with dog rescues and shelters, I was skeptical from the modern look upon entering. Once I was put into a room with stools where my dog could lay his head on my lap, the ambiance became much better. Then came in the vet assistant, then Dr. Farr. Words cannot express the detail and attention she gave me and my dog. She watched his movements, chatted about what I think could be the issue, and asked many questions related/unrelated to find a path for answers. I have never had a vet spend so much time with me or my animal without ordering a dozen expensive tests and going from there. She started slow to find a path, and was able to preform a few tests right there in her office. She put my mind at ease with her initial findings, then came in the next day before leaving town for the weekend to get the blood results and call me right away. Dr. Farr and consistently been the person to call and discuss, and always has a clear path in mind for the different results we may find. She is diligent about processes and steps to find the answers. Not only that, but we left at about 7/7:30 pm and she still worked on our case by calling a consultant who practices eastern medicine. We haven't gotten the end result yet, but I feel that we are very close, as he's already getting better. I highly recommend Dr. Farr!!! read more

Absolutely wonderful service! From the over the phone appointment, to the greeting at the door, to the the exam and waiting, the staff was extremely kind and concerned for us. Prices are reasonable!!!! We will definitely be coming back! read more

Love. That about sums up everything! I came here unexpectedly due to a grooming mishap and stayed for a checkup.. now I have a new vet. My dog is TERRIFIED of nail trims and I was told by multiple groomers to take him to a vet to be "put under". Well they managed to do it pain free and without any sedatives. Being brand new to Dallas I didn't have one but I am glad I found City Vet! The staff was so friendly, helpful and understanding. If you love your pet as much as I do don't hesitate. Stop driving by and stop in. They are fabulous! Glad I found a vet care home for my pups. read more

If I could give Dr. Melkus and her staff a million stars I would. A five star rating simply isn't high enough. A week ago I picked up my Goldendoodle from the breeder. I opted to bring him in for his shots vs. giving the shots that they gave me. Dr. Melkus recommended testing him for Parvo and parasites, just to be safe. I agreed thinking we trusted the breeder so it's more for my peace of mind. The test came back positive for Parvo and we had to leave him there for 4 days. She allowed me to visit him after hours, kept me updated on his progress and SAVED HIS LIFE. When she broke the news to me, I burst into tears and she held my hand and walked me through the treatment process and next steps. I cried all weekend because Parvo can kill a young puppy, but with her treatment, love and care he pulled through. She treated my very sick puppy like her own and that's what you need a vet. You need someone that takes your baby gives him the best care, and saves his life. I saw a man write a terrible review for a grooming... I would give anything to trade places with you sir. The last 4 days of my life have been a nightmare, and I so wish I could have just simply gone in for a grooming that got pushed back because he got a little sick. I will follow Dr. Melkus and her staff anywhere, even if she moves across the world she will be the only vet to ever take care of my dogs. read more

Do you need a fantastic vet in a convenient location? We did, and I've found one! Dr. Cambria Melkus just opened a new CityVet location on the northwest corner of Lovers Lane and Greenville Avenue in Dallas. Dr. Melkus has a magical touch with animals...and their owners. She will make you feel like you and your fur baby are part of the family when you visit this spotless and super-friendly clinic. Dr. Melkus allows plenty of time to explain any issues she sees, but does it in a way where there is no pressure to make hasty decisions. My little pup is loooong overdue for a dental cleaning, and I have no qualms about the upcoming procedure. To top it all off, you may drop off your baby for a check-up, let them stay at the clinic during the day to see Dr. Melkus, get a nice bath and groom in the process, and be treated like royalty by the young and fun staff. They even sell pet food and treats. I wish my doctor's office was this pleasant to visit! read more

Dr. Melkus and her staff are the best! We're so fortunate to have found such a compassionate, considerate and dedicated veterinarian!

I took my dog there to be groomed, made an appointment for 8am Saturday morning, I received a call around 12:30pm that she wasn't going to be groomed because she threw up and it was busy that day so other dogs took her spot (mind you they close at 2pm) and all they could do is bathe her and brush her hair (I can do this at home without spending money). Obviously agitated by this I let the lady know that this is unacceptable I brought her there at 8am (when they first opened) and she was third in line when I dropped her off. They told me they understand then put the doctor on the phone to explain to me why she had to wait pretty much 4 hrs to be cut (the excuse given was because she threw up and wined when we left her.....she is a malteese with separation anxiety) but said they would fit her in and stay open late and insured me that they would be open and allow me to come pick her up but got a call at 2:05pm (again they close at 2pm) saying they couldn't groom her because she wouldn't stop whining (not because she is viscous and bititing nooo because she is 4lbs and was whining while getting a haircut) she then proceeded to show me a video as if she tried to visciouly run away from the clippers. I am very frustrated at this point and what made it worse is that the staff tried to record me protesting the fact of my dog being skipped when I couldn't watch the excuse of a video the groomer tried to show me (they love recording things here) as if I was being hostile. Yeah the black guy who is mad his dog was skipped all day is being hostile kind of cliche but regardless wouldn't recommend going here if you actually want your dog groomed. read more
