All Species Animal Hospital

A couple months ago, my Nigerian/Pygmy mix was mauled by my 2 dogs. All Species welcomed me with open arms. Dr. Innocent was very in tune with Rudy's pain level and assisted with first aid immediately. This was a tough and miraculous surgery. Dr. Innocent repaired Rudy's crushed jaw and surrounding tissues. It was touch and go for a bit but Rudy pulled through. Today he is eating by himself and being his usual goat self. I owe my deepest gratitude and service to Dr. Garry and his staff. His staff is very knowledgeable and impeccable with their service. You can count on Dr. Innocent and his staff to hold your hand and explain every procedure in layman's terms so that you can understand. The best thing, in my opinion, is that All Species leans more toward natural healing and not unnecessary procedures. All Species truly has your pet's best interest at heart.

We had a pet emergency and we love 2 hours away. We arrived as the main veterinarian was supposed to get off but they stay open just for us. They helped us navigate the hard decision to put our sweet baby down and they didn’t make us feel rushed at all even though we were there 2.5 hours after they were supposed to leave. I will forever be grateful for this experience going as smoothly as possible due to the people. They even went and got a fur clipping for me and drew a picture of her. They were AMAZING! They let me cry and hold her for an hour before taking her back (when I was ready). They even found and brought us a charger when our phone was dying. I will recommend them for the rest of my life! So grateful!

Dr. Innocent and staff are very kind helpful. He always takes his time and we never feel rushed with our visits. I feel like he really cares about our pets through the questions he asks and advice he gives. He also saved the life of one of our bunny Ellis (on left) twice. He is still going strong and healthy.

We are new to the area and needed an exotic vet. I called BluePearl, and they stated they didn’t see exotics, so they recommended this place. I called to ask if they had experience with newts and was told, “Yes, of course!” We scheduled an appointment, unsure whether our newt had an obstruction or was pregnant, since it's breeding season. When we arrived, there were no other clients—this should have been a sign. The receptionist was nice and polite, and the doctor was also courteous, although clearly not as informed about newts as they claimed. We told the tech (who was also the receptionist) that we were concerned about a possible obstruction, and we heard her relay that information to the doctor before he came in. He told us he thought she was either pregnant or just fat. He palpated her and said he didn’t feel anything. We again expressed our concern about a possible obstruction, especially since we had rocks in the tank (which we thought were too large to swallow). He brushed it off, saying, “They’re not dumb like dogs—they wouldn’t eat rocks.” He then flipped her over to look at her stomach to check for eggs. He kept referring to leopard geckos instead of newts, saying things like they bury their eggs and lay leathery ones. It seemed like he was trying to see the eggs through her stomach, which you can sometimes do with geckos—but not newts. We had to correct him, explaining that newts don’t bury eggs and they’re not leathery; they stick them to plants. He told us X-rays would cost $400 but didn’t think they were necessary since he believed she was just fat and couldn’t feel anything. The appointment ended with the conclusion that she was either overweight or pregnant. He said he was going to Repticon and would ask breeders what they thought, took a picture of her, and promised to call us back on Saturday. First, I wasn’t looking for a breeder’s input—that’s why we sought medical care in the first place. Second, we never received a call back. Meanwhile, she kept getting more bloated, so we sought a second opinion. That vet took X-rays for much less—and it turns out she did have an obstruction. She’s currently being treated, and we’re hoping she pulls through. If you’re looking for medical care for an exotic pet, I do not recommend this clinic. I’m extremely upset that our concerns were dismissed and that we had to pay for a visit where the doctor clearly wasn’t confident or knowledgeable about the species in question. I see that this clinic often responds to reviews, which is understandable. However, if any part of their response attempts to blame us as clients, I will be taking this matter to the veterinary board. We brought our pet in because we noticed something was wrong and trusted this clinic after being told they had experience with her species. Instead, we were dismissed. That delay in proper care may now cost our pet her life. We acted in good faith, relying on what we were told by professionals.

My kids and I all agree this is the best vet visit we’ve ever had. We drove an hour and a half as this is the closest exotic vet to us and Dr Gary and his staff were amazing. He took the time to show my kids who were interested the neat animals and told jokes. He was through in his examination and we learned so much we didn’t know about how to care for our beardie. We will definitely be back next time we need a vet
