Excellent service and friendly staff. Be sure to sign up with the program they offer for pet insurance. Well worth it in the end.

River run staff is always pleasant and you can see they love animals. The doctor is kind and takes care of my Prince all the time. Very knowledgeable team. read more

They're available when you need them and treat you like you're apart of the family read more

I highly recommend River Run Animal Clinic for it's wonderful staff and especially for its Vet Dr. Steve McColman. The Staff could not be nicer and more caring especially taking care of our aging pets. Dr. McColman has helped give great quality to our 13 year old dog Flippy who was almost crippled and now he is getting around really well after his diagnosis and recommended medication and supplements. Can't thank these people enough for what they have done, read more

I was referred to this facility from The Humane Society for low cost neuter. I now board my 61 lb 8 month old German Shepherd mix there from time to time and have never had any problems. The facility is a little warm for a vets office but hey, things could be worse. The staff is always friendly and attentive. From what I've witnessed, the vet techs genuinely care for the animals. I would recommend this place to anyone who lives in the area. It is a vets office, not a day spa. Don't expect to walk into this place with wind chimes and aromatherapy coming your way. read more

I've been taking my dog to this vet for a few years and the service is okay at best. I recently chose to take my dog elsewhere because of the terrible, insensitive service I received. My dog has a tumor and a growth in his mouth and before he had surgery naturally I wanted to talk to the vet about what to expect. When I called in to speak to the vet the woman who answered the phone was rude and sarcastic. I told her that I preferred to speak to the vet about my concerns and she told me that the vet would call me back. I waited for days and he never called me. When I finally called back she reminded me of the price of the surgery (which I already knew). I cancelled the surgery and requested my dog's medical records. We found a new vet. My dog is now getting the attention he deserves and I feel like a valued customer. I will never return to River Run Animal Hospital! read more

I've been going to this clinic since my pet was born. I am SO disappointed to know that my cat has not been properly diagnosed even after the vet having seen him three times this year. I went to Sheridan Animal Hospital a few days ago. The vet walked in and immediately asked me if my cat had a thyroid issue - based on his visual observations! Never once did Dr. Steve indicate that my cats weight loss, icky ears, and low grade temperature - that I keep going back to him to look at could be a result of thyroid issues! Never once did he do blood tests - instead injected my cat with antibiotics! I'm so done! After seeing this new vet and getting the testing and results, we've confirmed its a thyroid issue and after just three days of meds, my beautiful cat has made SIGNIFICANT improvements! Dr. Bob and Dr. Kadish are well worth the trip from Miramar. So disappointed with River Run... read more

Terrible service. I've been going here for years and the staff just gets worse and worse. Was there for pricing but not even worth it anymore! My patience is gone. Will be going to another vet. read more

I was referred to this place through the SNIP program. I have to say the staff here was so wonderful to work with. Im a new pet owner and was clueless where I should go for my pets doctor visits. I highly recommend this office. read more

My experience actually happened a few years ago and I had no idea yelp existed at the time or I would have submitted this review sooner. I was referred to them via the humane society for low cost spaying. I made an appointment and brought my dog in. I brought her in with a muzzle because she gets really nervous around new people and animals. I was being a responsible owner and protecting my dog utlimately. The looks I got from the secretary were absolutely judgmental and made me feel uncomfortable for having a dog in her presence with a muzzle on. The dog sat quietly,behaved, actually avoided other animals, and did not show any aggression at all while we waited in the waiting room. I had adopted this dog several months prior from one of my mom's coworkers and am really quite uncertain about the kind of circumstances she lived with prior to me. Anyway, I dropped her off and was called back a little while later because she was visibly stressed and her muzzle had come off. So I went back and helped them out with her. She had her procedure done and I picked her up later that day without any issues. So a few days go by and I noticed that the incision site is has become swollen and saw that part of it was reopening and had purulent drainage coming from the site. I actually did not return to River Run initially because of how uncomfortable I had been there, but took her to Banfield instead where they graciously treated her with care and assessed her. However, they were hesitant to do anything because they were unsure of the exact methods used during this procedure and recommended I take her back to the vet who operated. I called River Run to make an appointment, but her wound started to look worse so they had me bring her in right away. So now I'm dealing with a situation where my dog is extremely stressed out with being back in this particular building (she was fine at Banfield and any other vet she had previously dealt with for that matter). She did not want the vet to touch her at all so he gave her a sedative (which she fought very hard against...poor thing. I should've left). ** side note I am actually very experienced with working at veterinary hospitals and dealing with animals** So I was able to restrain the dog in a good enough position for the vet to examine her and determine that she needed antibiotics. The vet stepped out to grab the medication and instructions for me. This is what really blew my mind. After the vet stepped out I overheard his secretary speaking with another customer in the waiting room telling them that my dog was "The type of dog that would kill another dog if you leave it alone with them." I could not believe my ears!! Any animal lover who actually cares and knows animals would have seem that her reaction was purely fear & stress based. She spent most of her time trying to get away from the vet, not aggressing at him. But she wasn't in the room witnessing any of this. All this lady knows is that I brought the dog in with a muzzle. I hate to admit it, but my feelings were truly hurt. All I could think about was what people like this woman would do to a dog like this because they simply didn't care to understand. When the vet returned, he saw my face and asked my what was wrong so I told him, and he immediately left to room and literally yelled at her about it. Her response? "It's not my fault her dog is like that". So it's my fault?! You know nothing! This woman should be nowhere near animals in my opinion. I wrapped things up as quickly as possible and, unfortunately, had to deal with the secretary to pay for the visit (which in itself is absurd considering the circumstances). She looked me straight in the eye unapologetically and conducted business as usual. I never went back. By the way whatever your name is . My dog was already living with a very small elderly and irritating miniature pinscher and never even tried to hurt him once. I also recently adopted a puppy at 8 weeks old and she immediately took the puppy under her wing and has been treating him as her own for a whole year without ever attempting to "kill" him as you put it. As a matter of fact she is very watchful of our whole little family and has only stepped in with a growl and a warning when other dogs have shown aggression towards the other 2 dogs. I trust her with my life and I would gladly give mine to save hers. She loves people and wants nothing but love. She even loves babies and wants to spend the whole day cuddling, licking, and possibly trying to eat a diaper or two. You are a nasty person and should not be in the business of dealing with animals. I hope this finds other customers, who have dogs with similar stress issues, well. They deserve patience and caring not judgement and disdain. I wound up taking her to Pembroke Pines Animal Hosptial right off of Flamingo Rd & Pines Blvd for several years and the staff that treated her the way she deserved to be treated! read more

Got a SNIP voucher? Want to get your pet spayed/neutered? DO NOT go to River Run Animal Clinic! Pet owners get the voucher because they cannot afford to get their animal fixed without them. River Run is listed as a SNIP provider but will add many unnecessary charges to get your pet fixed! It was bad enough getting a confirmed $97 + voucher quote over the phone by two different receptionists, one being (as far as I know) the self proclaimed office manager, Lorraine, but then upon taking my pet in the day of the appointment (which I took the time off work for and caused undue trauma to my cat), I was handed an Invoice of $182!!!! I told her that was not the price I was told over the phone. Lorraine adjusted it by removing one "optional" service and handed me a second Invoice for $149! I again said that this was NOT the price I was told over the phone (which she knows, because she gave me the initial $97 phone quote) but she wanted to talk over me, trying to explain that it was only part of the expense. Instead of admitting that she had given me the wrong quote and trying to make it right, she felt the need to repeatedly explain that $97 was only partial cost to me, already being highly irritated by the deceit and waste of my time. This office needs better, more competent, honest management. I will NEVER return to River Run Animal Clinic! This place is obviously out to nickle and dime pet lovers and should not be listed under SNIP providers. I can't trust them to give an honest price, so how can I trust them with my pet? read more

Decent animal hospital came n for a regular check up for 2 dogs. Vet looked over dogs and answered all questions that I had no problems.

The service I had from these young people were amazing. They were very helpful, I can surely say they weren't in it for the money but more because they care about the customer and the animal. I will definitely be returning with my chihuahua. Thanks a million guys. read more

This is for the Miramar Office in Florida. I have two 7 year old female cats and a baby boy that is 7 months or so, before I knew of this clinic and the wonderful, professional and caring ways Dr. Steve and staff are, we used to use Knowles Hospital. They are good as well, but they missed out a bit on the caring side. I am writing today cause my husband and I are forever grateful for the caring way the Dr. Steve handles the pets, the way that the staff cares for those animals that are left for treatment, clean kennels, healthy food, you call and they answer any question you have, not necessarily you need to speak to the Dr. they are all aware of your pet and every other pet and can answer your concerns. The young staff from Lourine to the girls and guys you can't get them anywhere, they are the best. They treat the animals with passion, caring and attentive way. My cat just had a major surgery and she is doing great thanks to this clinic, this lovely people. I cant thank them enough and they also provide health insurance for pets. AWESOME Thank you all for all you do for the pets and for us Humans that cant have enough of them. We love you all. Dana, Sundae, Oreo, Blackie and Mama Bear Barbie. Thank you. Truly the Best you all can be. read more

My black Labrador, Thunder is almost 9 years old. He has been going to River Run for about 3 years and he's not going back. I'm a college student so I come about every 6 months and my dog stays with my grandparents who take very good care of them. I recently came home and Thunder wasn't back yet. They picked him up the next day and as usual he was drowsy it seems as if they drug him up to calm him down, he's a very high energy dog. I realized his front paw nails had not been cut and his skin was extra dry. We payed them for up to date shots, a bath and the nails to be cut. 2/3 of these services we didn't receive but they charged it to the bill. He already has dry skin but we asked that he be bathed in oatmeal bath products HE WAS NOT BATHE AT ALL! His skin was flaking and his paws were sore from them not clipping his nails. They take your money but don't render services. Watch your pets closely!! Needless to say he's not going back and the people who work in there always have to drag him back to the cages. I never had that issue except for here. He hates it and I do too. Don't bring your animals here!!! read more
