What a racket! I was new to the area and I wanted to establish with a new veterinarian. I got my dog heart worm tested with her first visit (although she had been taking heart worm pills since she was a puppy) and a 3 month supply of heart worm pills. When I was reaching the end of the supply I bought them on Chewy and set the pills to auto-refill. The veterinary clinic has refused to let Chewy refill the prescription without coming in for another test; in other words forcing me to either buy the pills from the clinic or get re-tested every year. read more

We've had mixed experiences at Millville Veterinary Clinic. One of our dogs had a very positive visit. The veterinarian we saw was kind, gentle, and very comforting to our dog, which we really appreciated. There was also a lab issue where results were mishandled and we had to repeat samples, but the testing facility waived the cost of the retesting as it was their mistake. The vet herself was compassionate and overall that visit felt positive. Unfortunately, our experience with our other dog was very different. The veterinarian we saw during that appointment felt much more pushy and didn't take time to make our dog comfortable. We had also paid for annual testing and were instructed to return samples on the day of her scheduled surgery. To be safe, we brought the sample in a week early, but were then told it was past the deadline and that we would need to pay again to have the testing completed, which we already paid for. Because of the unexpected additional charge, we chose not to proceed with the second test. This was frustrating since we followed the instructions given by the clinic, and it felt unfair to be placed in that position. We've had positive experiences here in the past and would like to continue using the clinic, so I hope the practice might review what happened and consider making this situation right. read more

This Vet is the best in the area by FAR! So many examples, here is one. 2 years ago I brought our 13 year old mini Australian Shepherd in. He was in bad shape and having major breathing issues. He was under the the regular care of another Vet in the area. This doctor examined him for almost an hour. Prescribed a medication and we follow up regularly now. This Saturday Aussie (his name) turns 15. I am certain he would be gone if we hadn't come here. Boarding is excellent as well, staff is outstanding...always a 5 star experience! read more

Just called for an appointment. They will not set an appointment without a $95.00 deposit, which is credit towards the first visit. How ridiculous, I am not giving them my credit card info over the phone. After reading reviews I see I made the right choice by declining. There are plenty of vets without such ridiculous policies. read more

This is a follow up from Jeannie. C. When we took our dog (Buddy) in and they diagnosed severe pacreatitus they should have beed honest and said that he needs to be out down. Instead, they said that we could try IV drips for 3 or 4 days at $800.00 a pop. We took him home after the 1st day of IV drip and he cried and suffered all night. We weighed over 100#, so I'm sure it was painful for us to load him up, take him home, load him up again for the 2nd trip. We went ahead and out hin down because he was getting worse. We called anohter vet and they said they would have told us to put him down instead of hjim suffering and us paying a lot of money. My wife talked to the owner and he said he would check into only charging us for the diagonosis and not the usel;ess treatment. He was going to credit approx $575.00. The next day he said that he was not going to help us at all. Totally unfair & greedy. That $575.00 credit would have shown some decency. I feel like posting every single day about this. All I can think about is my dog's needless suffering. Mike read more

if you want one of the Millville vets to be honest with you about your pet, don't take your pets there. I took my dog there and had severe pancreatitis and I asked him if I should put him down and there's always they wanted to do is to put him and put IVs in them, and then I came to pick him up and took him back the next day. and I had to put him down all night when we did bring him home. He was suffering and crying all through the night so they should never have said to keep him on IVs that he should've been put down like I asked instead they wanted to keep charging me and charging me so don't take your pet there read more

My Grandmother's cat was needing to be seen and we were referred by someone who said this clinic was good and charged a reasonable price for their service. They were wrong. My Grandmother's cat was seen twice and each time the lady that saw her didn't spend more than five minutes with her after waiting in the lobby for almost an hour before being seen. It wasn't busy either, there was only one other person waiting in the lobby. The first visit I was charged $100, the second visit which the vet spent less time with her they charged my credit card $335 and then I was also charged $88.75 for what I'm not sure. The vet didn't do anything except look in her ears and say she creates more wax than most cats and told us that her hacking like she's got a furball is normal and to let her continue to do it so that she can get whatever is causing her to do it out. I'm very disappointed and I will never go back again! If you're looking for a decent vet clinic this one is definitely not it. Save yourself and your pet the time and money and look for a vet who will be more thorough and not not price gouge you. read more

I decided to try Millville vet clinic hoping to find a country vet attitude and approach. Boy was I disappointed. What they are is a corporate owned clinic designed to make as much money as possible. To get a simple procedure they will force you to conduct an array of tests which are not necessary except to rack up your bill. Their prices are exorbitant, and just as high as AVC vet clinics. Some procedures are voluntary but the vets will make you feel like you really don't care about you pet if you don't get all the tests. They have several vets and they all have something to prove. They are all rude and pushy, and if you don't agree with everything they say, they will attack your character and become downright nasty. Millville is one of the worst vet clinics in Redding. All they care about is making money like all the rest. What has happened to veterinary Medicean industry in Redding? read more

I have been to a couple other Veterinarian offices since I moved to the Redding area 15 years ago, but Millville Vet is far the best. Everyone is so nice and helpful. When we had to say goodbye to our 16 year old Shih Tzu they were all so sweet and made it as easy as possible for me. I was a mess and I truly feel like the Vet and the Vet Tech really cared and gave me the time I needed to say my goodbyes. I also received the nicest sympathy card in the mail sign by everyone in the office with the nicest words about our boy. read more

After an emergency visit to another vet tonight I'm about $1600 into a botched spay. They tried to clean it up but nowt without charging me $950 to do it. I will be contacting the office manager on Monday. I've been a client here for a long time and have spent a lot of money. It seems to be a particularly mercenary kind of operation, they only want to squeeze every last dime out of you. I'm sad and disappointed, if you are looking for a new vet I would recommend going elsewhere. read more

We have gone to Millville Veterinary Clinic for over 25 years now. They have seen me do the "ugly cry" more than once when while holding my dog when putting them to sleep. We got a very nice card in the mail from the clinic signed by ten of the employees, including the doctor who was the one who gave our dog, Emma Lou, the final injection last week when we had her put to sleep. Each person wrote a personalized note. The vet was the sweetest guy. He was young, probably around 30 years old, and very empathetic and soft spoken. I saw him the time before when we were trying to figure out what to do to relieve Emma of some of her pain and I was glad he was the one there with me last weekend. We go to Millville Vet because of the small-town family atmosphere and the way they treat us every time we are there. We started going there in 1995 with our first dog, Misty, a yellow lab. We lived in Shingletown at the time and the vet from Millville had a clinic day one day per week in Shingletown so that is how we started seeing him. We have lived back in south Redding since 2003 but have continued to drive the extra distance to go there because we know they take great care of our fur babies. If you are looking for a vet, I could not recommend anyone above them. You will not be disappointed and will feel the care and concern of all who work there. read more

After trying several vets in town, I am so thankful I got in with this vet. Dr Presleigh and her team are great. I always felt like I was heard and they took exceptional care of my very moody cat. read more

I have been taking my dogs to Dr. Presleigh since 2001. I remember the tiny little house out in Millville that he started in - same location as now. His prices have always been reasonable, his staff is very caring and compassionate, and it is truly a family business as his daughter is now a veterinarion and his son handles the "business" side of the practice. read more

I quit going here due to the office staff are so rude and disrespectful. It was a great place when the old man was still working.

I took my new puppy here just for a check up! The girls at the front desk were so accommodating and friendly. The doctor was fantastic and very patient with me (as I had a lot of questions as a first time dog owner). All in all, the experience was great and I'm so happy to have found a permanent vet for my puppers read more

Understand my normal rating of this veterinary clinic would be a 3 or even 4 stars. I gave it 2 today because of the incredibly long wait. What's the point in making an appointment if you don't get in for 40 minutes after you arrive. The vet we saw was nice and seemed knowledgeable. I will give them another shot because we've had good service here in the past however if this continues I will find another vet. The vet did remark that Saturdays are their busiest. Today is 3/7/2018. I received a follow up phone call from the Millville Veterinary Clinic. They asked about my less than satisfactory review. They were truly concerned and apologetic. I truly appreciate the fact my patronage was important enough for them to take the time and contact me after the fact to explain the perfect storm that put them behind last Saturday. read more

I guess since everyone is staying home they are notice how broke down all their 4 leggers are getting! Thanks to Milville they are all here running around like crazy making sure to help us all out. I have 3 doggos & they have us pull up to the front of their building. Then we call or honk & they come out to get them from the car. Millville Veterinary Clinic really has their act together amid the COVID-19 shut down. Thank you to all the staff that's out here working so hard! Again, a class act out here! read more

See all

This is a wonderful veterinary clinic! Thank you so much Tracy. Putting our dog Mia down was very difficult for our family but you made the process as loving and caring as you could. We will never forget that And today.. Thank you Jessica for being SO extremely helpful over the phone! You were able to answer all of my questions and help me out. read more

Worst veterinary clinic I've ever been too. Never been treated so poorly or bad a vet that had such a disregard for the animals well-being in their care. Vet was rude, aggressive and unprofessional. Paid for test to be completed but vet refused to explain results. Was also sent home with medicine without clear instructions or explanation to what it is. I was also there for almost four hours and still left without answers or clarity to the services performed. Would rather drive an hour to Chico if I have to than come here. Do what is best for your pet and go somewhere else because they are not about your pets well being here. We were treated like a nameless profit cow in a dairy line. It's obvious they are about the money and not the animals. read more

Amazing doctors at MVC and great staff! Love that it is locally owned and family operated! Dr. Jen Presleigh is awesome! The Presleigh's are a wonderful family. So glad there is still a vet clinic that is not owned by a corporation! read more

Lost my 8 yr old McNab, with no answers from my vet of 35 years. So Millville is a new vet for me. Friendly staff, beautiful campus, did a complete work up on my girl for me just to make sure all was good with her, after losing her brother. They also tried to help me figure out ways to get her to eat, (as she's been sad) and trimmed her nails. They were patient and took time to answer all of my questions. I left feeling very comfortable with my choice. read more

All of the vets here are fantastic. Sometimes there may be a wait but emergencies do happen. And they don't insist on $500 worth of lab tests every time you go in. I have some feral cats I'm working to TNR and they always get me in for spay or neutering. read more

My dogs have been seen by Millville Veterinary Clinic for about 20 years. They are very expensive but it was worth it. They were super - - until - - - today when my dog is bleeding from it's rectum and I called the clinic for help. The help was "Call Asher" - - I have been abandoned by the very people I thought cared. Obviously, they don't. read more

Millville Vet was able to get me in on a Saturday with an emergency with my dog, Lewis. The outcome was not what I expected but they were very compassion and thorough in their evaluation. The office staff were very friendly and the place was so clean. A very friendly atmosphere and I highly recommend them. read more

I have been going to Millville Vet throughout the last 30 years when Randy Presleigh owned it. He actually cared about the animals and wasn't all about the money, like they are now. I took my sick foster kitten there and originally got antibiotics for her, they didn't work so I needed stronger meds. Well, the vet wanted to charge me 450-650 in "tests." I had explained how I just spent 1500.00 on another cat and didnt want to spent the money on a foster kitty, and the vet started arguing with me and trying to catch me lying, which made no sense cus her job was to treat the animal only. (I lied about nothing, she just clearly wasn't listening.) I asked to speak to the manager (who is the son of Randy Presleigh) and he didn't care either. He said I could put the kitten down or take it to Haven, and still charged me for an office visit. I am so disgusted with this place I can't even put into words. Recently when I have taken other animals there, they gave me estimates of 1000.00 and 1100.00 in various fees, one of those was for a spay, which should never be that high. I will never be going there again. read more

Caring, thorough, professional and personable care from vets and staff. Dr. Hoff makes sure all options and outcomes available are understood and that my cats best health and happiness is the top priority. My pets and I feel welcomed and well taken care of at Millville Vet Clinic. read more

I love the vets and the staff here. Have a 3 yr old dog newly diagnosed with a heart condition. More than likely hereditary due to the breed. He was started on meds as soon as it was confirmed and then they also recommended for him to have a consult at UCD cardiology clinic. They will continue to be involved in his care. For example at UCD he has to be sedated due to his size regardless of his temperament. Did not do well after sedation. Millville vets agreed to do his films and send them down before we leave the morning of next UCD appt. Dr Bieder(sp) has been awesome about calling and checking to see how he is doing. She really cares. The other vets we have seen are great as well. Highly recommend them. read more

We've been taking our pets to Millville for several years now. We've seen different doctors there, but the last few times we've seen Dr Lawson. It is very clear she cares about our pets as if they were her own. She's very thorough and informative. Thank you for caring for my baby! read more

A vet that actually knows about chickens! And doesn't treat you like you're weird for loving them. Wonderful.

I have been a customer at this vet for at least 30 years. The straw that broke the camels back so to speak was when the office manager (their son David) told me to check with my bank on a credit card reversal, instead of saying I,ll check with my people to see if it was applied. He then hit my wife up for a balance of 51 dollars that we owed for a procedure that the vet was not sure was complete and we were coming back in 2-3 days to make sure all was right. My wife asked about the cost of the meds we were given our dog and was then told we could have the meds at internet prices. Excuse me I've been paying higher costs for meds for many years and now I'm told I could have been paying many dollars less. The vet who took care of our dogs was Jennifer and she did a good job, but the letter I received from her was a insult at best. After 30 years I was sent a form letter, no mention of us going to a different vet and that they were sorry we were leaving. The service did not run us off, it was the customer service or lack of that drove us off,David does not now how to handle customers, and I should know as I ran a heating and air company in Redding for over 30 years. Norvin Gandolph Enterprise heating and air. (Retired) read more

while we appreciate that they fit us into their schedule, they did not find that our pet had life threatening issues and now we may have to euthanize. they wanted to charge us more money to try to figure out what's going on when we had already paid and they misdiagnosed and sent us home with misdiagnosis. will not be going here again. now our pet is in the hospital. why didn't Millville veterinarian see this and thoroughly evaluate him? now we are faced with having to euthanize him. read more

This place is awesome! Today my dog got a foxtail embedded in her ear. The vets office took her right away and fit her in and treated her quickly so she wouldn't have to spend the day in pain. The staff and veterinarians are amazing! read more

I have had only positive experiences having my pets cared for at Millville Veterinary Clinic. Dr. McGann is very knowledgeable and caring. I trust in her to care for my animals. Everyone at the clinic is caring and attentive. I will be moving out of the Millville area but I will continue to bring my animals to Millville Clinic for all their needs. read more

Made an appointment to have my large parrot wings and toes clipped with this vet; had called to ask if they were able and was assured they had the experience on staff to "clip" accordingly. When I arrived and was ushered into the exam room, my 1st indication they were not experienced with parrots was they do not have a scale with a perch as all avian vets do. Secondly, I could not get an definitive answer when I asked specifically if they had exper with a large parrot (my bird is a macaw)..... I ended up leaving with an uneasy feeling I was "over-sold" about the depth of service with the staff. Staff was friendly and professional just not experienced enough with exotics.... read more

This is the best group of veterinarians around. All are thorough, professional and very loving. I have a number of cats and dogs that I take to them. Years ago, they were my goat vets. The vets and staff are all incredibly kind and friendly. The vets are all up to date on all the latest education and treatments. They also all have good old fashioned "horse sense". The prices are absolutely fair, and lower than the chain vets. You and your fur babies are treated with dignity and respect. It doesn't matter if I live in Shasta or Tehama County, these people are simply the best. read more

Yesterday I took my 3 year old lab to have a foxtail removed. Dr. Lawson was the one that we saw. After 45 minutes of telling me everything that was wrong with my 'senior citizen' (according to Dr. Lawson), we never got to the foxtail and I ended up walking out. DO NOT LET DR. LAWSON SEE YOUR PET. It was a horrible and traumatizing experience. She tried to up sell for 45 minutes. She wanted to do blood work on my 3 year old 'senior citizen', vulva surgery, vaccines she already had, etc. It didn't end for 45 minutes. I was there for a foxtail. I'm not happy I had to have my dog suffer through the night but I went to Brink's Vet in Palo Cedro today and the foxtail is removed and life is great again. **Sidenote: To be fair, I have never met any of the other vets in the office and they may be wonderful. My review is on Dr. Lawson specifically and not on the vet office or the other doctors. The front desk was very professional and accommodating. The entire office was very clean. The location is great. The staff was very friendly. read more

Our family has used this vet clinic for probably close to 40 years. It's family owned and they are amazing. I grew up in Millville then moved to redding but make the drive back to Millville vet clinic for all my vet needs. The dr. Was thorough and kind even after my cat tried to eat her.. they have the best prices than anyone in town and have worked me into the schedule last minute more than once. I can't say enough good things about them. read more

We needed a place to board our small dog in an air conditioned facility with room for her to move about. This is the second time we have taken her to Millville and are quite happy with the facility and the service. While here this time, I decided to have her teeth cleaned. The Dr. was very understanding and considerate of my availability on the phone when she called to let me know what she expected to do before the procedure as well as later that evening to let me know how well our beloved pet had handled the teeth cleaning. The front office staff are very friendly, helpful and understanding as well. We will be bringing Bella back for more boarding and have every confidence in her care while she is with the Millville Veterinary and Boarding facility. 5 paws up for this business! read more

Fairly good doctors but it seems like all they want to do is get you to spend money. Definitely beware of them trying to sell you something. When my cat was sick I was told he was likely stressed from a move and a new cat in the house. First I was told he didn't think it was respiratory. He wanted to do blood tests and xrays because he thought it was a stomach issue. After I refused because he was definitely coughing up mucus and had runny eyes, I was talked into purchasing to purchasing a pheromone plug-in that was supposed to calm the cat down. I broke down and purchased it for about $70. I looked on Amazon and they had the same exact thing for $29.99. Marked up more than twice as much. It didn't really help my cat. He continued to cough up mucus for about 2 weeks after the vet visit. I can't recommend this vet because of these seemingly shady practices. read more

After years of my Mom's dog being miss-diagnosed at another Vet, we got a reference from a friend and finally brought him here to get checked out for a so called mystery-problem by the "other" vet. They not only diagnosed him on the 1st visit, they were able to actually fix the problem. He had an abscessed tooth that they were able to remove and now he is all better! My Mom lives in Redding, but it was worth the drive to have her dog healthy and happy. read more
