Bring a lunch because you'll be waiting a looooong time. I tried using the online chat with Emily,…read morebut the response time was terrible. I got an email confirming a 4 PM appointment, and Emily, the same person from the phone and chat, told me to bring Manny a GSD in. At 4 PM, they took us to a room where we spoke to a tech, who said someone would be with us shortly. She came back to look at him and asked if we wanted an X-ray for $175 (still no vet yet) or a physical from the doctor. We chose the physical, and she said the doctor would be in soon. By 5:21, she returned to apologize, saying there's only one doctor for 10 rooms. Can you say greed? We turned around and left. The waiting room still had 10 people trying to get into one of those rooms. I don't care how many doctors or rooms you have; that's your problem. If they told me to be there at 1 AM, I'd be on time. I'd heard good things in the past, which is why I chose this place, but now that they're in the big new building, their service is going downhill. Word will get around, just like in other reviews I've seen. Terrible service!

Doctor Syler and her entire staff were so very kind, compassionate and caring. The Vet techs were so very loving with our little Toto and she was very comfortable with them and the way they handled her. For that we are thankful. Doctor Syler was so very easy to talk to. She answered all of our questions and put some concerns to rest as well. She also made some very good recommendations in regard to dental care for our little one as well. All in all this was a GREAT choice and we are so very thankful that we found Doctor Syler and her team. Have already recommended her to some other local friends as well. THANK Y'ALL so very much.

Above and beyond! I took my dog there because my regular vet was closed. My guy was lethargic and…read morenot himself. Turns out he was running a fever and of course it was Friday. Dr Barlow gave him IV antibiotics and suggested I leave him hospitalized. On Saturday he was doing a bit better and Dr Barlow suggested he stay the weekend to continue treatment. But not in a cage at the office, but she TOOK HIM HOME so he would be more comfortable in a home environment and with her three dogs. Wow! That's dedication and compassion. I'm so glad they were open and available for my fur baby when I needed help.

I really did not want to leave this review; but if it can save others the awful experience I have…read morehad, I will. I brought my dog in for abnormally fast breathing. Dr Barlow stated it was from his teeth and didn't run test. I took that as great news. She sent me home with antibiotics and got him set up for a teeth cleaning. The antibiotics ran out before the teeth cleaning so I called in some more because I didn't want any infection to spread (if there was one) but.. why wouldn't she have done that? I was getting close to the scheduled teething cleaning, and I was still worried because my dog's breathing was STILL SO fast. I didn't want him to die from anesthesia, so I called and they told me to bring him in. I bring him in for pre surgical test (his levels are normal) and an xray where she said he my have bronchitis or the human equivalent of asthma, tested him for heart worms (negative). They l gave him a histamine based med before his teeth cleaning on Wednesday because that should help with the breathing. I take him and my other dog in (she was getting spayed, we will get more into that later) and I drop them off. She calls me and is NOW worried about his breathing, (what I originally came in for.) she asks me to send his X-rays to a specialist.. so of course I do. She comes back saying my dog has fibrosis in both lungs. At that point I black out and she says something about his trachea. I am physically, emotionally, and mentally drained at this point. In tears for days. My mom tells me to go get a second opinion, so I did. THEY SAW NONE OF THIS. So I am not only down $500 or so (they did refund me my visit fees) but back at square ONE of his issues. Nightmare, but at least my dog doesn't have a death sentence. Now to my sweet girl who went to get spayed. Everything seems to have gone well. She just let me know there may be some bumps at the ends of the incision and that would be normals. My dog wore a recovery suit constantly (except for washing and she had her cone on). She is still young and active so she did run around a bit. She seemed to be healing, but slowly and the two bumps at the end of the incision would not go away. I sent pics because I started to get worried. The incision itself looked fine (other than the bumps she said would be normal). I asked to have a post op follow up because it was directly from the spay.. the receptionist on the phone stated the vet said since it was three weeks out it wasn't related. Ya. Okay. All confidence is lost at this point. Decided I didn't not want to deal with them anymore; lack of accountability is wild. I go to the new vet I took my other dog to, and yes, it was infected internally. We got on some high dose antibiotics and she is fine. I am now going BACK to my new vet because the dissolving stitches are NOT resolving and the incision scar is lumpy. I will update from that appointment, but PLEASE save yourself the heartache, stress and money and go to another vet. They may be "affordable but it is not worth what seems to be cost savings. (I am now paying much more to get proper diagnosis and healing for my dogs.) The office manager was great, one of the receptionist was kind. The other seemed to hate her job, people, and pets. For Dr Barlow. Take responsibility for your work, admit when you cannot help. And listen to your patients rather than dismissing their VALID concerns. Veterinary medical center of Athens is not far, go there and save pet as well as your heart and wallet the pain.

They wanted to muzzle her when she was 8 weeks old, which is insane to me because she wasn't that bad and she was a baby. I really didn't want to bring her back but I'm glad I did because she's they have been great ever since .Kylie is the best tech vet , she's definitely one I trust with my mal and they do well together . I will say a few of the Drs act very scared of my dog which is kind of annoying because she's muzzled and she's never went after anyone . She barks loud , but comes for pets once in the room . But Dr Morton has been so good to us , I'll make sure to only ask for him or Embry. Dr Morton makes sure to take his time and never feels like we're being rushed . He wants you to fully understand the situation . I love that they can get you in same day and the hours are amazing .

My wife and I have been using this clinic for all 3 of our dogs for several years and are highly satisfied with them and will continue to use them. I see bad reviews on this clinic but I have not seen any evidence of the bad claims. Each time I go there the other customers leave happy and are treated well. Thank you guys for taking care of our furry babies. Keep up the good work. Monte Mansfield
