    After having brought my cats here many times since my last review, I can honestly say this is the…read morebest vet I have ever trusted. My kitty once developed a goopy pink discharge in her eye due to being bapped by my other cat. I called and they fit me in that night at 830pm. The veterinarian was very gentle with my baby and did a very thorough checkup. Turns out my kitty was quickly forming an ulcer which we caught very early. We were able to heal it within a week! Turns out the place is open 24/7 so they're the best for emergencies. I also highly recommend this vet for their dental work. My kitty had to have a few teeth extracted and the vet took before, during, and after pictures that were texted to me for reassurance. They did an amazing job on the stitching and she had no post surgical issues. Overall this is hands down the best vet in Lafayette.

    Do Not bring dogs with a traumatic past here. I brought my girl here and we adopted her about 5-6…read moreyears ago from a shelter who saved her from an abusive environment. I communicated to the techs that she is very skittish and has came from an abusive home. They either disregarded this remark or didn't have the necessary experience to understand the situation and handled her just as any dog. Due to this she did react negatively and bit a tech. They then came back and told me I was lucky that it didn't cause any bleeding otherwise they would've quarantined her at the pound. I am not sure how more clear I could be saying this dog came from an abused home and is skittish. She has never bitten anyone as long as I've had her but how my communication was disregarded and how she was handled escalated the situation unnecessarily which almost resulted the to quarantining my dog.

    Worst experience ever! I never write negative reviews but this must be shared! This is my…read moreexperience in its entirety. I went to the vet, to get my puppy's (three months old) checkup, deworm, and shots. As soon as I walked in, my dog stopped in the doorway. I had a hard time pulling him in with the door while also holding back the toddler. So, my daughter (3yo) ran straight in. I had to pick up the pup who weighs almost 23 lbs. I saw two people watching. I guess they pretended not to notice. My appointment was at 3:50 p.m. and I arrived early around 3:40. I was there until 4:32 p.m. It was really hot in there. I was sweating! When they came into the exam room, there was no introduction. The vet was, I assume Dr. Lee, I am still not sure since there was no introduction. My pup was uneasy on his first trip away from home. He started to growl. After coming out from under the chair, he looked at me, calmed down, and sat. I said, "Good boy" when he looked at me and sat. I guess it was the vet who told me not to praise my dog unless he is doing something I want him to do. I did, but she was not looking so I told her that I rewarded him for sitting, not growling. She sounded slightly rude, but she didn't see. How many times did I spell my dog's name for them? Over five. They still managed to spell it wrong. It's just a dog but pay attention, please! I am not sure why my payments could not have been done while I was in the exam room. This could have prevented the whole waiting-next-to-a-parrot situation. As I was paying, I asked for some information on a future appointment for my CAT. I was carrying my toddler and holding the leash of the 23lb pup. We were waiting, so I showed my daughter the African Grey Parrot. I know very much about animals, and I know not to put your finger in the cage. But my daughter had never seen one before. I was keeping her away from the cage the best I could. There is no sign and there are no barriers around the cage. Some places put plexiglass at the bottom for protection. Honestly, I couldn't see it until I heard him whistle. Rose came to hand me my receipt just as my daughter was getting closer to the cage. The bird saw this and came closer. As I was being handed my receipt and I turned to get it, my daughter was being bitten by the bird. One quick second is all it took. I want to point out that I was holding my daughter's hand and the leash the entire time. Before I could say don't touch, she was bitten. No, she did NOT stick her finger inside. She was pointing and it lunged at her finger and was just close enough to reach. The exact spot it happened was where the cage opens for the food dish. Rose asked if she was bleeding and I said no. So, of course, she said, "Don't stick your fingers in cages!" Then the lady said that she would email me the information instead so that I could leave. She confirmed my email address AGAIN before I went. I confirmed my information and the pup's name multiple times. That day they never emailed me the information that I was waiting on when she got bit! As if it was all for nothing. When I did finally get an email, it was the wrong information! I asked about my female cat's upcoming spay scheduled for 5 days later. Instead, they sent estimates for my puppy boosters and neuter. So, no wonder. I guess she thought I was stupid for asking about a spay for my "male" when I really was asking about my female cat. I guess I looked trashy, poor, and stupid if she thought I was asking for pricing on the "dog." Either way, I was not being listened to, which I find disrespectful. I'm sure they are good people, maybe it was just one of those days. I am sure your animal will be in good hands. If you don't like being social and are only focused on your pet, you might like this place. We will not be going back, and our furry family is growing as we will be adopting a puppy next fall. I need to find someone who cares about the clients as well as the patients. I've never thought I would want to be treated like a dog until dealing with these people!

    I can't imagine having had a worse experience with a vet clinic. Aside from Dr. Fontenot telling…read moremy husband that she dislikes our breed of dog, A German Shepard, she let him walk out of her practice a year ago, claiming he had a false positive heartworm test. Fast-forward one year and we recently took him back there for his annual visit, and low and behold, he has heartworms. None of the issues we took him in for were addressed and Fontenot didn't even have the common decency to come out to the car (being they are still doing curbside only) to explain his course of treatment. Instead, she sent a vet tech out to our car to try and accuse us of skipping our dog's heartworm preventative ( of which I have records to prove that he has never missed). Accountability is everything in this world. Had she retested him a year ago, perhaps she would have found that indeed his first result was not a false positive. Instead, she is so quick to get everyone out of there. Not thorough at all! Profit only! Additionally, we cannot get this clinic to give our dog the heartworm preventative they are now recommending. They will not authorize his meds through third party services and have been giving me the run around for over a week about technical difficulties with their online store. Overall, this vet is highly incompetent and I believe that because she has such disdain for our dog's breed, she was hoping he would die of heartworms. Please do not bring your pets to this joke of an establishment.

    Not the worst experience of my life but definitely not the best…read more I was born and raised in south Louisiana, true Cajun. This is far from the southern hospitality I'm accustomed to seeing... Maybe I caught them on a bad day? First, they only have one doctor on staff and you can expect to wait upwards of thirty minutes to see him in the waiting area. The lady behind the counter doesn't really want to know you or why you're there and her attitude sucked... The visit felt very rushed especially after discovering my dog had heart worms. We rescued this dog not know he had the heart worms and were genuinely concerned for his health. I really didn't feel like they cared about our furry little friend. I'm not saying they have to personally care but on some level that is what vets are suppose to do, CARE for you pet... I would look elsewhere. Update: We took our pet to a vet in Texas and were informed that the heart worm treatment method they wanted to use here was outdated and dangerous.
