Included with every visit is a cute little photo of your pet (although Tootie usually looks terrified ). I keep mine in my car and it makes me so happy to see my baby every time I drive. The staff is also very responsive to emails/texts/phone calls. They are quick to send your primary vet any updates on your pet from their most recent cardiology appointment, and also willing to weigh in or collaborate with your primary vet if your problem isn't heart related (for example Tootie had pancreatitis recently and I wanted to verify that all the new meds being prescribed were okay for him to take with his current heart meds). I cannot sing enough praises for this business! They have made such a positive impact on our lives. Honestly, I'm an ER Nurse and I wish all medical practices coordinated/collaborated care the way Dr. Straeter does for her patients!

Tracie and Stormie were a significant part of Sam's care too and I cannot say enough good things about them in the way they handle their positions, each pup, and the paying customers. They have a dynamic team. I highly recommend them and will continue to keep Sam in their care or others that may need their care in the future. One happy rescuer...

We recently had one of our pets pass and they told us it would cost $8600 just to maybe save her life and the puppies inside of her. And to add injury to insult the bed that we brought our dog in, they threw it away Without our consent. And they offered us another bed that was abandoned by someone else. Poor judgment, poor taste in medical practices, poor taste in customer service. If you love your pet stay away from this place. In addition, they are not BBB accredited.

Unprofessional and disrespectful treatment by staff…read more I had high hopes for this veterinary practice because the veterinarian himself is knowledgeable, kind, and clearly loves animals. However, my experience with the staff has been deeply disappointing, to the point where I can no longer recommend this clinic. I reached out to them for help rehoming my cat, as I was told they might be able to assist in finding a foster home. Over several weeks, I followed up multiple times, only to have to repeat my situation to different staff members each time. I explained that my cat was attacking another one of my pets and that I was desperate to find a safe, responsible home. During one of my last conversations with a staff member, I expressed my distress in a way that was clearly misunderstood. I was adamant that I did not want my cat to be euthanized and refused to take it to a shelter for that reason. Despite this, the clinic called the police on me, assuming I was a danger to my cat, which was not only incorrect but completely unnecessary. The way this situation was handled was unprofessional, harmful, and frankly, traumatizing. I live with health conditions and the police arriving at my home, banging on my door, made the situation significantly worse. Instead of communicating with me like an adult, the staff member avoided accountability when I later inquired about what happened. To make matters worse, I then received a termination letter dropping my pets as patients from the clinic. What's even more disappointing is that after all of this, they have shown their true colors by not even caring about the rehoming of my cat. They would rather I take my cat to a shelter where it would likely be euthanized, yet now that I'm still trying to find a safe home, they are ignoring my calls and emails--while an innocent cat's life is at stake. This level of disregard is absolutely unacceptable for a veterinary clinic that claims to care about animals. On top of that, it seems that none of the staff are actually certified veterinary technicians, and that lack of proper training is evident in how they handle situations. This ultimately falls on the veterinarian for choosing to employ an untrained, inexperienced, and very young staff. Science has proven that our brains are not even fully developed until age 25, and it shows in how immaturely this situation was handled. A veterinary practice is not just about the doctor--it's about the entire experience, including how staff treat pet owners in difficult situations. The veterinarian may be great, but his staff's lack of professionalism, compassion, and accountability completely ruins the experience. If you're looking for a veterinary clinic where the staff is trained, professional, and able to handle sensitive situations appropriately, I would recommend looking elsewhere. I truly wish I could give this place five stars, but integrity demands honesty.

They provide a 15% discount off your first-time visit along with some goodies for your pet's first visit. Even if you're forgetful like me, they will honor that 15% on a future visit. They do an excellent job sending reminders, making phone calls for you to come pick up your pet if you boarded it, vaccinations, everything. They're willing to work with your schedule no matter how crazy it gets. I would not hesitate to recommend this place to other pet owners in Birmingham. It also helps they're located near Petsmart and Petco if you need to pick up anything else on your way back home. It might be a hard place to find since it's off in a small road. However, it feels like a family run business and they'll give you all the attention you need.

I unfortunately found myself in need of emergency animal care after my dog was attacked and bitten…read moreone Sunday morning. Fortunately his wounds were minor and I was able to clean them and stop the bleeding at home, but I wanted him seen professionally as infections can happen very easily when there is a bite wound. I called a nearby vet ER who mentioned that if I waited until noon I could check out the double oak urgent care which is substantially less expensive. That is exactly what I did. What would've been a $600 emergency visit was instead a $130 bill including medication. Dr Rutter and her team were kind and helpful and I greatly appreciated this option. Please consider supporting this urgent care should the need come up! It's such a great option when an emergency arises.

The vet oversaw my pup's groom to make sure everything was as I wanted. If you are in need of a simple, "breed neutral" shave (they don't do breed specific grooming at the moment) and you aren't picky, then this is a great place to go! It was $20 cheaper than my usual groomer, because it was a simpler cut, which I didn't mind at all!! The vet and staff were so kind! I will definitely be back.
