Olsen Veterinary Clinic - Veterinarians Near Me - Glen Carbon, Illinois

Really a bad vet. Super slow to diagnose issues. My dog had a health issue, and Dr. Olsen's total incompetence lead to his death. We took our dog for a second analysis and that vet was shocked that our dog had not been properly treated. Avoid this vet. read more

Regardless of past reviews, I had to take my cat to a vet quick. It wasn't a dire emergency but her usual vet could not get us in until over a week and that would not work. My boyfriend and I looked up local walk in vets, and this office popped up. We took my cat in this morning at 8 am and we were seen right away. He quickly saw what was wrong with my cat and gave us the appropriate medication for her. We were out of the office in less than 30 minutes which was great. I recommend going here if you need a walk-in vet! read more

I'm glad I didn't read any of the reviews prior to taking my pet. The only reason I went to this clinic versus my regular vet is that the Rescue had already set up the appointment for my puppy to get spayed. First off, the staff nor the Doctor are client-oriented. Upon walking in and informing them we had an appointment, Dr. Olsen instructed "Andy", the assistant, "Take care of them!" First impressions - Wow - Rude. Andy took my pup. Me: Do you want my phone number, in case, you need to update me? Andy: No. I don't have time to call with updates! WHAT?! OMG - I should have just taken my pup back home. But, she stayed. *fingers crossed* I called at around lunchtime to check in my pup. Spoke to the Dr. - He said everything went well. Uhhhh.....Ok. Picked up my pup at about 5:15 that evening (they close at 5:30). My phone is ringing, my partner wants to know if I'm there yet. I told her, I just pulled into the parking lot. She received a call from Rescue mom, asking if we were going to pick up our pup since they close at 5:30! Ummmm.....Remember my conversation with "Andy"? Yeah, right! Needless to say, I checked in with the receptionist and told her I was picking up my pup. I thought she would be in a crate or in a recovery room of some sort. Nope, my pup was laying on the floor behind the receptionist desk next to another post-surgical pup! BTW, I asked the receptionist where was my pup's "cone of shame", she responded "Oh! I was wondering who that belonged to". Really?! She provided no post-operative instructions. I had to ask. Honestly, I just wanted to get out of there and make sure my pup was going to be ok. I will not be returning to have her sutures removed. I will take my pup to my regular vet. We are 3 days post-op, so far, so good. My pup is almost her regular self. Appetite is back, tail is wagging. Thank goodness. Dr. Olsen, it may be time for you to retire. The smiling, caring, pet-loving profile picture that you see on his website and the Yelp profile, is not who you are nor is it a reflection of your "staff". Pet owners, if your pet is indeed a valued family member, be wary and cautious. read more

If I can sue this office for negligence I would. This 'vet' hit my golden retrievers lower intestine during surgery, leading to an eventual death a week later. Absolutely unbelievable I am beyond broken for my angel. read more

We have been going here for well over a decade. Dr. Olsen has done a fine job taking care of our pets. He saved two of their lives. Sadly, they have all since died from old age, but we trust him with our new kitten. read more

PLEASE! If you do anything, do NOT take your pet to this clinic. The staff is negligent and blatantly lied to my face. I was told my dog had her parvo and rabies shot when in fact they just never did it. They were then appalled when I questioned why I was lied to and I was hung up on. The service is awful, the communication is awful, and the care was awful. I could write a novel, but please love your pet and do better than this place. read more

I lost 2 cats in 2020 due to the financial hardship and expensive quotes provided by another well known very clinic in Glen Carbon. I was faced with another illness with my surviving cat this December and at a loss knowing I couldn't go back to our previous vet. I found Dr.Olsen on Google and they got me in the same day. They were able to treat and help my deathly ill cat and save his life without forcing me to make the choice of either giving him thousands of dollars or letting my cast die. I'm very grateful for him and his assistant, Andy! I only wish I would have known of him and his practice earlier, then my other 2 cats might still be alive. I highly recommend Dr.Olsen if you need good care for your pets at a reasonable price. read more

Brought my dog here to get neutered and while the surgery was okay, the communication between the doctor, front desk staff, and me was horrific. The front desk staff was useless, including the doctor who never spoke to me after the surgery, and gave me little information about how to take care of my dog's post surgery needs or concerns. When I asked questions about post surgery, I was given a vague answer. BUT my FAVORITE answer I received when I asked the staff if my dog had glue or stitches was "I don't know. I wasn't there." I will not being going back and will tell every pet owner of my terrible experience here. read more

Very poor doctor when it comes to handling anesthesia, I've read instances where other people have lost their animals after coming here. I would recommend North gate animal hospital much more. read more

Dr. Olsen and his vet techs have been taking wonderful care of our two dogs for about two years. Our mastiff is always getting into trouble and he always suggests the most effective solution while making sure we don't break the bank. I called this morning - a Sunday - at 7:30 AM to ask about my mastiffs tail injury and he immediately called us back with answers. I am so thankful to have a vet that cares enough to take time on his Sunday morning to return a work call. His vet techs are incredibly kind and patient. We always have a good experience here. Thank you Olsen Vet for your top notch care!! read more

This is the place you've been looking for to bring your pets. Great service, clean, friendly, efficient, affordable. Your fur babies are in good hands here. read more

DO NOT TRUST ANY QUOTE THEY GIVE!! They do not honor the prices quoted. We paid over $300 MORE than the price we were told it would be. If I could give them a negative review I would. We will never go back!! read more

NEVER TAKE YOUR PET HERE!! If zero stars was an option I'd go with that... I brought my cat in to see Dr. Olsen for the first time. He was diagnosed with a UTI (common in male cats). Dr. Olsen said that my cat needed to be catheterized and kept over night. He then called the following day to say that my cat was blocked up again so he re-catheterized my cat and kept him over the weekend. The doctor went out of town over this weekend, but decided to clear my cat to be sent home on Monday without seeing him first (which he admitted to). I went to pick my cat up after work on Monday and the nurse yelled at me for trying to open the carrier in the office to see how my cat was feeling. When I got my cat home and let him out of the carrier, he was dripping blood WITH the plastic parts of the catheter STILL SEWN INTO HIM and he was covered in his own pee from laying in it all weekend long... I have the pictures to prove it... To add to that, my cat was sent home from Olsen's office with a completely blocked bladder. Olsen and his staff did not even check on the state of my cat's bladder before sending him home with me. I had to rush my cat to the emergency hospital, where they told me that surgery was required because his area was too irritated to try to catheterize him again. When my cat got into surgery it was discovered that only 1/4 of his bladder was left because Olsen used outdated medicine (a hard catheter) on my cat which punctured a hole into his bladder. The emergency vet clinic was unable to save my cat due to this. To top it all off... Olsen still charged me for the "work" he did on my cat. When I went to his office to explain why I refused to pay the bill, he threatened to take me to collections. Heartless. read more

I really like Dr. Olsen. I've been bringing my cat to his practice for a couple of years now. His prices that he charges are very reasonable, he is usually able to find a time that works well for me and he obviously cares about the animals he sees. He is often pretty busy and can seem a bit gruff at times but he is thorough and doesn't put animals through any tests or procedures that he doesn't think are necessary. He is kind of old school in his approach and reminds me of an ag vet - very matter of fact and straightforward. read more

Jenna Kueper, who works here, is also involved with Four Paws Sake rescue group in Maryville, IL. These are not "rescuers", they are dog nappers. Just know that she is watching to see where pure breds are having litters so they can come confiscate your puppies and call you a "backyard breeder" when you try to get them back. Dr. Olsen might be great, but his staff is corrupt. read more

I use Olsen Veterinary Clinic for all my animals (Horses and dogs) Dr. Olsen is always very professional and caring for my pets. I've had 1 dog that was dealing with end of life issues, I explained that putting him down was my last resort. He explained his condition to me and gave me the option to take him home and make his passing as comfortable as possible. I will always thank him for that option. He did the same for a horse that I had raised from a foal. He recognized how attached I was to her. He came out to put her down realised my situation and recomend a solution that gave me another 6 months with her and she went out on her terms with her head in my wifes lap.He is a wonderful Veterinarian and wont pressure you to make any decisions your not ready to make. read more
