This new owner is very hateful. He has seen my service dog for over a year. Since he took…read moreownership, he said I was rude to the staff and argued over 80 cents. He also stated I'd have to go see another vet. This is all slandering and untrue. I was short 80 cents and was going to go to my car to get the 80 cents, but a wonderful staff member said she would take care of it. This Dr denied my prescription for my service dog because he said I was looking for a new clinic. Why in the world would I look for a new clinic until he denied me the prescription for my service dog. Yes, I said I would have to look for someone else if he refused to fill any medication for my service dog. I did have to take her to Mountain View Humane to get her spayed due to my disability and lack of income. I thought at one time Blacksburg Animal Clinic was the best! This is not the case after DR Watson bought the clinic. He actually spoke with me on the phone as well and was very hateful and domineering. I tried to explain and he said he would send my medical records to whoever I wanted, then blocked my number as I only had a few hours to choose a new vet. I then emailed him to try to explain because he wouldn't give me a chance to speak on the phone when he called back. I said I'd have no choice to report him to the state board and DCA. He just gave me a hateful answer and then proceeded to tell me to do as I see fit. It's like he doesn't care! Who wants a vet like this?

I called them up and fortunately they had a drop-off slot available. When I dropped Millie off the staff was very friendly and welcoming. By the early afternoon one of the veterinarians rang me, and went onto express she had contracted an ear infection. He administered some medication, and explained I shouldn't have to worry moving forward. When I picked her up she was clearly feeling much better. Since the visit Millie has been just fine. I'm most thankful for everything the folk at BAC did for her. They are officially Mill's vet! Thanks again y'all!

I boarded my pup here at the recommendation of a friend, but had a very bizarre and unpleasant…read moreexperience. Upon dropping off my pup, Katie told me that she loved shelter mutts and that they had such a special place in her heart. After about 24 hours of boarding, I got a text with a picture of my pup enjoying life and living large resting in a dog pool. She said that my dog was "doing great" and that he was "such a sweetheart". It was great to receive an update and I enjoyed my vacation knowing that my pup was happy and in good hands. After I returned from vacation, I excitedly rushed to pick up my fur baby when Katie told me that my pup had been a problem and asked if I had ever had any issues with him attacking other dogs. On the verge of tears I told her that there had not been any issues and then asked what happened. Katie exclaimed that my dog attacked 3 other dogs and that he had sent them to the veterinarian. I asked for pictures, owner's contact information, and veterinary bills so that I could pay for the damage and contact the owners, but Katie told me that I shouldn't worry about it and that "she wasn't even going to tell me". I thought this was very strange- I certainly need to know if my dog attacked 3 other animals! Katie told me that my pup had to be kept separate from other dogs and then described my lab mix as a "pitbull" and asserted that "all pitbulls get violent at some point or another". Later on in our conversation, Katie mentioned that she needed to take the 3rd dog (that my dog attacked) to the vet because my pup attacked him on the 4th of July when everything was closed. This made my ears perk up- It was the 5th of July and earlier Katie had asserted that my dog had been in isolation for the last few days... How could my dog have attacked a dog on the 4th if he was in isolation? When my pup was brought out he was visible shaken and he looked as if he had been running wild in the woods for a month. He was covered in scars/gashes, which a month and a half later, still have yet to heal. Luckily, after 3 days my pup stopped cowering and began acting like himself again. I can't imagine my pup acting violently, but at the end of the day he is an animal and I wasn't there to see what happened. Unfortunately, Katie couldn't produce any documentation to support her claims. I don't know what happened during my pup's stay at Blacksburg Critter Care, but it was not a pleasant experience and I highly recommend you take your fur baby elsewhere. My pup has stayed at Heartstrings several times now and we have not had any issues.

I brought my dog in to be evaluated for vomiting and clearly informed Dr. Matt McCormick that my…read moredog is reactive. I requested and placed a muzzle before the exam began. During the physical exam, instead of asking me to assist with restraint, which has worked well with other veterinarians, Dr. McCormick began pinning my dog firmly against the exam table in an attempt to control him. My dog became extremely distressed and ultimately urinated and defecated during the restraint. The level of force used felt excessive given that his anxiety and reactivity had been clearly communicated. I had to intervene and remove my dog from the situation. I understand that reactive dogs can be challenging to examine, but I expected a more collaborative and low-stress approach. Based on this experience, I will not be returning to this clinic.

The new clinic listened to me and answered my questions. The correct tests were ordered, and I finally got treatment. The new clinic always provides written discharge notes. I had to call multiple times to get the test results from Companion. I felt like I was a bother - not a client. Dr Fabrizi there was the only one who did at least acknowledge the symptoms.
