On July 2, 2026, I brought my 3 1/2-year-old dog, to Vet on Fourth after he suddenly developed…read moreenlarged lymph nodes. A fine-needle aspirate (FNA) was performed, and I was told the preliminary findings were suspicious for lymphoma. Anyone who has ever heard the word "lymphoma" associated with their pet understands how devastating and urgent that moment is. The clinic used the Zoetis VetScan Imagyst platform to evaluate Blue's samples. According to Zoetis, "Using the Add-On Expert Review feature on your VetScan Imagyst platform ensures that an AI-flagged cytology sample receives human validation within hours." Zoetis also states that "Completed expert reports are returned directly to your dashboard within a few hours." I left the clinic at approximately 8:08 PM on July 2. The expert review report that I later obtained is marked Finalized: July 2, 2026, at 8:34 PM--just 26 minutes after I left the clinic. Despite the report being finalized that evening, I was not notified of the expert review results until July 10, 2026, eight days later. This delay is especially concerning because canine lymphoma is a time-sensitive disease. Early diagnosis allows owners to promptly consult with a veterinary oncologist, discuss staging tests, and begin treatment if appropriate. Every day matters when evaluating treatment options and planning a dog's care. My concern is not that additional testing or an expert review was performed--I appreciate that the clinic sought board-certified confirmation. My concern is that a finalized pathology report documenting a potentially life-threatening diagnosis was not communicated to me for eight days. During that time, I repeatedly contacted the clinic asking whether the results had been received, only to continue waiting while believing the report was still pending. As a pet owner, I expect timely communication of critical diagnostic results, especially when the diagnostic platform itself advertises expert validation and report delivery within hours. Pet owners facing a possible cancer diagnosis deserve prompt communication so they can make informed decisions about their animal's care without unnecessary delays.

Monroe Local Guide·27 reviews·9 photos…read more a week ago New I went in today to get my 10 year-old Golden Retriever his vaccines that were needed. I tried calling beforehand. Nobody would answer the phone. I tried calling several times no answer so we went in. It was 1:50 PM.The door was wide open with no cars in the parking lot. When I walked in the girl at the front demanded what do you need? I responded my animal needs vaccines. She retorted back aggressively "I need this clipboard back before two". She had an aggressive turse rough demeanor. I said no problem. I turned it back into her at 1:55. She rolled her eyes without looking at me and said "what's his name" again in a very abrupt manner. I had missed a little box off to the right side that I didn't see. I filled that out, put his name on that he was male and his age. handed the clipboard back and she said go sit down. Will call you when he's ready. We were the only ones in the waiting room. Nobody else was in there. After a minute or two of sitting there they called him back. The girl asked me a few questions if he had any seizures or allergic reactions to vaccines, but she never introduced herself, said anything to Bentley or us other than ask us if he'd have ever had any seizures or allergic reactions to vaccines. She said, hold his head, turn his butt. Very aggressive and angry. I didas directed then she said, hold his head straight up in the air nose pointed to the ceiling, which I did, she shoved the Bordetella vaccine in his nose. The entire staff acted as if they were all angry at someone or something. He's a golden retriever, very kind and 10 years old. She treated him in a very aggressive unaffectionate way towards the animal, as if it was his fault she was there. I have been there several times before and never been treated in this manner. I will pay more to go to a regular veterinarian. If you care about your animal and more about the animal than the cost, I highly recommend not going there. these employees who don't wear name tags that I saw don't introduce themselves and treat the animals in a very aggressive way in front of me. I can imagine what they do when the owners aren't there. They should not be working there around animals. Shame on all of them. It's becoming very evident there's something going on with upper management at this particular establishment and it's trickling down to the public employee. my husband and I are both nurses. I'm an RN. I've been in healthcare 40 years recently retired now. If I treated my patients and family the way they treated us and their patient.( my golden) I wouldn't have a job very long. Management allows this to happen

NO call or text back. never received any call or text actually. I had to take my dog to our local vet, he had a fever and a hematoma in the scrotum, received medication and told to watch the black area, should not be black! now back to the vet again because the stitches came out early and the black scrotal tissue has died and is separating from the upper 2/3 of the scrotum! BAD surgery! please avoid Animal Protection League!!! just don't trust them and their alleged vets!

I am incredibly disappointed with the scheduling oversight during my recent visit. I explicitly…read morerequested an appointment with Dr. Hammons, a request that was completely ignored by the front-desk staff without any warning or communication. Instead, I was blindsided and paired with Dr. Bibbs--a veterinarian I have had profoundly negative experiences with in the past and specifically avoid. As a natural doctor and nutritionist with 20 years of experience in holistic medicine, I treat highly sensitive, complex animals that do not fit into a conventional box. I came into this appointment looking for a professional collaboration. Instead, Dr. Bibbs met me with rigid resistance, an incredibly closed-minded approach to care, and unnecessary negativity regarding my dog's future, rather than giving the animal hope and a renewal at life. Multiple questions I specifically came in to get answered were completely ignored. I was also met with extreme pushback regarding aggressive vaccine protocols being forced for basic procedures, completely disregarding individualized, safer health approaches for highly sensitive animals. This clinic has wonderful practitioners--Dr. Hammons and Dr. Lockhart are excellent and open-minded--but Dr. Bibbs lacks basic empathy. Years ago, I dealt with her after my previous companion was misdiagnosed by another vet --a soul dog who was by my side through my darkest health battles--which tragically delayed his cancer diagnosis. She gave me attitude rolled her eyes when I wanted to do things as holistically as possible and that I just needed the right diagnosis. One medicine where it actually helps and doesn't suppress and mask the problem only to create a layer unhealed. To make a traumatic situation worse, while he was under, she unfeelingly asked me over the phone if I was "sure" I wanted her to wake him up so I could see him. My animals are in exceptional hands, and I have a proven track record of successfully healing situations the conventional system gives up on. I will continue to utilize the doctors at Judson Road who actually have a heart and an open mind, but I will never allow Dr. Bibbs to touch another animal of mine. The front-desk staff must do better to ensure explicit client requests are honored so owners are not blindsided this way.
