Open moving to the area the year and a half ago, we had a brief but positive experience with this practice and our young cat James. We have not needed their services since. However, just recently, in an emergency situation with a suffering animal in a crate, I was berated and belittled by the front office staff for bringing an animal - a patient of theirs - in without an appointment following a wild animal attack over the weekend. In spite of the fact that we had emailed ahead, and that she had read that email, I cannot adequately express the level of dismissiveness and rudeness, the lack of compassion and unprofessional demeanor of this person. While we understand that there are limitations in a busy practice, especially in emergencies, and that we may have had to wait to be served, it is shocking to me that anyone in that situation could've acted so heartlessly. We will not continue to be clients of this practice, nor would we recommend it to anyone else.

Melody at the front desk was also very patient with me and my multiple phone calls prior to coming in. I would gladly recommend this clinic and would not hesitate to call them again if we ever needed to.

It was discovered that my 12 year old cat Pippin had a belly full of cancer. They did everything they could to prop him up to try to give me a few more days with him. When it came time to say good bye, as difficult as the entire process was, they treated it as a very solemn occasion, ushering us into a room as soon as we entered the door. They're on point when it comes to wellness as well. Staff are knowledgeable (I was there and heard one on the phone with an owner whose dog went into heat for the 1st time and needed to be talked off the ledge) and compassionate. I don't expect to be a pet owner for a number of years, but thank you, Dr. Alina, for being SO kind and gracious to Pippin as well as myself. I'm happy for you that you're moving on. This practice, very fortunately, has other amazing vets but you WILL be missed.

I will never go back here, for a few reasons. To begin, one of the first visits we ever made, one…read moreof the vets yelled at my husband. We were in the waiting room, with our 65lb puppy, and he was very excited and just wanted to say hello to everyone. We let him say his hellos and then he was told to sit and stay. When giving our dogs commands we use a more firm tone of voice as most people do, the vet yelled across the room telling my husband not to yell at our dog. In a room full of people this was obviously uncalled for and it embarrassed him as well. That was the first thing that ticked us off. Every time we brought our dogs in here, they load them up on goldfish, cool whip, squeeze cheese, you name it. They always come home with diarrhea. I get it, you're trying to keep them distracted, but if you're giving vaccinations properly you shouldn't need to keep a constant flow of terrible foods going to keep them distracted. And if you don't know what you're doing and you do need to distract them, use dog treats so that my dogs don't come home with upset tummies and the squirts. Another thing, this office ALWAYS quoted me at least 80-150 dollars less than the bill ended up being. I asked approximately how much my dogs neuter was going to be, everything included, and they quoted me at $300. My husband went to pick up our pup and pay the bill and it was over $500. Shouldn't you have set prices for these things? So that you can give ACCURATE quotes? Before anybody asks, "well why did you keep going?" I've read terrible reviews about nearly all of the nearby veterinary clinics, and since we started both of our dogs vaccines here I just rode it out and decided to finish their vaccines here. Now that they're finished for at least a year or so, we'll never go back there. To say the least, I wouldn't recommend this vet to anyone unless you're willing to pay more than normal, get judged by the staff, and have puppies with upset stomachs because they feed them a ton of terrible shit while they're getting vaccinated, nails clipped, ears cleaned, etc. I'd also like to add I have NEVER written a review on any app, anywhere, but that's how irritated I was with this place. I actually took time out of my day to let everyone know how much this place sucks. If you've read this far, I applaud you.

The last visit, they screwed up the dates for his stay, even though confirmed in writing and on phone 1 month prior. But worst of all is they severely over medicated my boy.

It took 24 hours for him to even show any sign of life. I waited 2 days before writing this because I was so angry. But in the end, I feel I need to warn people to reconsider before trusting their baby's care with these folks.

We ended up switching vets in April after an unrelated, yet also extremely negative, experience at Black Creek. Upon my GSD's first exam at the new vet on August 10, we had to schedule oral surgery. On August 18, THE NEW VET HAD TO EXTRACT 15 TEETH due to the level of decay, lesions, and bone loss that Dr. Hamblin COMPLETELY missed. I literally cried on the phone post-surgery with the new vet, as I could not comprehend how that level of tooth decay was missed in not only ONE , but TWO yearly "well checks", by Dr. Hamblin. Save yourself the heartache and do not confuse a pleasant bedside manner with a vet so egregious that she overlooked a condition this significant entirely. TWICE.
