This is a great veterinarian hospital that was highly recommended by many locals when I first moved…read morehere. The only notable negative I've found is their positive reputation may be causing them to be a little too popular; most times I've visited they've been very busy and I usually need to book out at least a few weeks in advance if I want a weekend or late day appointment. Also in my experience when I've gone to a scheduled appointment I often have to wait a bit past my actual scheduled time to be seen. The wait area is pretty small but the staff is happy to come out to your car and check you in there if you would like to wait in your car. Also there's a decently large grass area to walk/relieve your dog if needed. That said, I feel any small hiccups are worth it as the staff clearly cares about providing the best care possible for all their clients and pets. Every staff member and Veterinarian I've spoken to there has always been very patient, helpful and informative during my visits. Would highly recommend to anyone needing high quality veterinarian care.

"The back of the bag has a chart." "That price is a lot higher than you quoted me." "We charged for a lot more than was on the quote." "You should bring him back in 3 weeks." "Why? You just told me he was healthy and doing great." "So we can 'handle' him more and he gets used to being here." "Not for a $50 office charge." "You should use this to take care of his teeth." Walks away and puts item back in inventory closet. "You charged me for this can of food. I thought it was a sample. I didn't ask for this." "Ok. We won't do that again." 30 minutes to check out, while 3 other customers checked out around me. I get that we're busy. But you should be better. I can't trust you to make good, healthy choices that don't turn you a profit.

He charged for UTI but did not catherize to get speciman or test urine. He asked first what food she was on...told him human grade. He said he wanted me to put her on Hills Science diet, I said no, too many problems with dog food. Their food is not regulated well, dead, diseased or dying animals from farms, etc. are sold to pet food companies and they come pick up and use in pet foods. He took her in back from me, came back and said looked like a lot of dental work needed to be done. I checked at home and there was no signs of inflammation, loose teeth, etc. Her teeth had been cleaned a yr. ago, and my vet was retired now. He wrote out three meds, did not discuss side effects, ask if I had questions, was very "unavailable" and gave the paper to the lady at checkout to type out for me. I was charged $226.83 and he had written I was to bring her back the next week with urine speciman! She was worse after giving her meds that day, listless, wouldn't eat, stayed in her bed. Same next day, but worse....I researched the meds online, it said NEVER GIVE WITHOUT BLOOD WORK FIRST, causes lack of appetite, and other side effects. I was upset, had been up until after midnight, took meds back, and was told "no returns". I had told a friend I was taking her to Southside and had heard he was good. I talked to her today, she's a nurse. He was rude to her, tried to hit her for $1990 for surgery, she said it was a money grab, unlike any vets she'd had before...same scam as I got. BEWARE....he's rude and arrogant, and not caring vet.

Awesome first time experience at Forsyth Vet Hospital. I called to make an appointment and everyone…read morewho I talked to were friendly and professional. I was able to be seen on the same day. The process of the curb side appointments was explained to be very clearly and in detail. Upon arrival I called to notify I was outside. Within minutes a tech came out to ask follow up questions regarding my cat visit. I provided all the meds and supplements that I give my cat and everyone was extremely patient and explained in detail that what I was giving my cat was good. After my cat was seen, Dr William Dawkins explained what he found in my cat. He was very friendly and explained everything. He was not pushy or giving me unnecessary recommendations of what to do with my cat. Dr only stated a few things to keep an eye on, but said not to worry about at this time. He was very patient in answering all my questions. When my cat was brought back out to my car, her medicine was explained in detail on how to administer it and answered all my questions. All in all I was impressed with the level of professionalism and friendliness from all the staff at this hospital. Everything was a simple process and I was in and out. Highly recommend!

I myself never would take antibiotics since they about destroyed me and began to think why am I doing this to this poor cat. These allopathic vets obviously can't help her. So I searched and found Doctor Radford and her team. This is a mobile vet and they have a beautiful office as well. I could not believe they came to my home and went over everything with me that my cat has been through. They have a huge mobile office but they came in since it was better for the cat. They spent 90 min at my house with my cat. You'd think it would have cost a fortune but it was less than the visits to the allopathic vets down the street. And the meds were way less than all the antibiotics. My cat has improved greatly and is on her way to a full recovery. I want to thank Doctor Redford and her excellent top notch staff for being so available and thorough. This is my go to vet from here on out. Also she does practice allopathic and naturopathic as well as holistic healing. I'm super impressed with her knowledge. Thank you Doctor Radford and staff!!!
