Absolutely no! Ronni Lavine once cared about her patients and was a respected veterinarian but it's…read moretime for her to retire. She's so obsessed with not catching covid that she let her practice slide. I took one of my senior cats to her in 2019 and she barely examined him and just said, he's a very old cat. He was 14 at the time. He wasn't eating... I took him home and cared for him myself. He's doing well at almost 16 yrs of age. In December 2019 my lab developed a growth on his shoulder. We waited an hour in the van to be seen. They took him in and he was back out in five minutes. I was shocked. What did they do? Did they X-ray?! The tech couldn't tell me but surgery was scheduled. He had the surgery a couple weeks later and then developed breathing problems. Ronny thought it was inflammation from the surgery. She prescribed theophylline and Cipro. He had a massive seizure with his first dose. She prescribed drugs that were contraindicated and known to cause seizures. I brought her to him that evening and she was absolutely horrible. Cruel, callous and selfish. All she wanted to do was go home. He spent over a week in the emergency hospital (covered by her malpractice insurance... ) - seizures wouldn't stop unless he was highly sedated. The ER vets did a chest X-ray after a week. He had a growth (cancer) throughout his chest. She hadn't X-rayed him to see how widespread his cancer was in December. I had to say goodbye to my 9 year old companion. My heart breaks every day missing my Shiloh. Later I found out several people in the past few years had also lost their beloved animals due to this vet's callous indifference and negligence. Hopefully she retires soon.

Unfortunately I can't leave zero stars, so here we are. Let…read moreme start with my appointment for my two dogs was at 1600 and we weren't seen until 1710. I understand that things get busy but this is a situation where professional communication makes such a difference in how your customers view your business. That seems to be the root issue here as there was zero professional communication during the visit. The vet came into the room with a very defensive attitude and I just assumed she was having an off day as other times my dogs and I have been there over the PAST FIVE YEARS we haven't had awful experiences. My first dog was seen and vaccinated no issue other than me feeling the entire time like the vet and her tech were inconvenienced for having to do their job. Again working with the public I get it and sometimes it is just like that. The issue is that the vet tech was holding my very large German Shepherd with her face right next to his. I know my shepherd and wasn't concorned about him being snippy or anything so I didn't say anything for him. My Golden however is very anxious and will sometimes give warning snips to tell you she's uncomfortable and needs you to back off. Knowing this I asked the vet tech not to put her face near my dogs face TO KEEP MY DOG SAFE. As a dog owner the absolute last thing I want to do is allow my dog to be put in a situation where she can be at risk. Dogs are like children and don't think before they act so as her owner I felt asking the vet tech to keep her face away from my dogs was reasonable and honestly common sense for anyone who works with animals. I expected more critical thinking in this situation and unfortunately it was lacking. Honest mistake on their part I'm sure but my job is to advocate and protect my dog. After I said please don't put your face near hers as she's my nervous girl they refused to administer any vaccines without a muzzle. Which I declined as there was no indication for a muzzle. Only proper safety precautions being taken. After this was said they started belittling me and being condescending asking if I understood liability and how it's policy for them to muzzle a dog who had previously bitten a human. Which again has NEVER happened. I was very overwhelmed at the unprofessional tones and lack of knowledge of basic animal safety that I stated that I would be more comfortable having my dog seen elsewhere and I would like to pay for what had been done and leave. I was then met with more condescension about how great other local vets in the area were and good luck. Also the vet kept claiming that she didn't know my dogs so she could only go off of what she could see. Mind you she preformed my dogs spay three years ago and we've been patients there, with vet records to prove it, for the past FIVE YEARS. The only saving grace for this wasted appointment was that the front desk concierge was lovely and very helpful while checking out. (Also of course Mr. Muffin and Tiggy) I would strongly urge that if you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about your animals that you look elsewhere as we will be. If you're worried about low cost their prices are very fair! Do with that what you will.

When other Vet Clinics tell you to take your animal to NC State, understand this is his Alma Mater. The clinic has equipment to perform a lot of the same procedures like chemo for animals. All that I can say, in my experience ONLY,(so please don't blast me) is that you pay for what you get. Is the practice expensive? Well it's not cheap. However, Dr Dale has cured my cats when all hope was gone. He NEVER RAN unnecessarily tests. I can't THANK Him enough for all he has done. Truly an Amazing Vet in our community and grateful to have him!!

My dog underwent a C-section at this veterinary office on December 19th. Tragically, the entire…read morelitter passed away on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning. My whole Christmas was ruined, I spent my entire break caring and crying for my baby and her babies and it definitely dampened the holidays for us. We weren't in the Christmas spirit anymore. What makes this even more upsetting is the lack of proper discharge care. My dog was sent home without any aftercare paperwork ( and I clearly remember this because I carried the whole litter in a clothes basket with two hands and had here lease tied to it), written instructions, or clear guidance on what to monitor following major abdominal surgery( I was told that she had sutures and I asked about what I had to do and doctor said, "Nothing" so in my mind I thought that meant they were dissolvable. I was also not given a scheduled follow-up appointment at the time of discharge for suture removal or post-operative evaluation, which I am finding out is standard after a C-section. Now as a Black woman, I know Obstetric Racism and Obstetric violence are a thing but come on, it's 2026, treat everyone the same, regardless of color. It's an innocent dog! I did everything asked of me during my dog's gestation. I spend thousands. For over a week I went daily, at $150 a DAY for them to get her levels. One day the receptionist asked why didn't they just tell me to "check her temperature" instead of sending me in DAILY for $150. I immediately spoke with the office manager about this, it wasn't resolved so I continued to pay. My c-section was $2500, I am just a special needs teacher and I'm not a breeder. I did ask for payment arrangements and they did agree. On Dec. 19th my baby had her surgery, about 4 days earlier than her due date, I'm trusting the professionals, I didn't go to Veterinary school so I didn't know the risk or expectations. The entire litter died within days. I called back to speak to Dr. Beasley (whom I wholeheartedly like) and she was out, she left me a VM and plans to call back but we never talked again. I came and spoke to Sam. I simply asked to be relieved of SOME of the c-section expense because I don't think it would be fair to still charge me after everything. She firmly said' "No" and that I had to pay the remaining $1800 because of their fees and etc. Ma'am, you guys are a million dollar business. $1800 is not comparable to a litter of 6 AKA French Bulldogs. My poor baby is devastated and looks for her litter occasionally. I will enclose pictures and videos. After experiencing such a devastating loss, the absence of clear communication, instructions, and continuity of care added unnecessary stress and confusion during an already traumatic situation. Major surgical procedures require thorough aftercare education, and that did not occur here. I am sharing this so other pet owners are aware and so this practice understands the seriousness of proper post-operative care, communication, and accountability. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I cannot recommend this office.
