Lake Dow Animal Hospital

I have four animals I take here; the staff is wonderful, the doctors are excellent, and it's always really clean. Lake Dow is also the least expensive vet I've found anywhere around:) Really can't say enough good things about this facility.

We brought our family cat in (Siamese). It was a week where the vet was in surgery and wasn’t seeing walk-ins. Siamese was very sick with a growth in her mouth that manifested over the weekend. We got there at 0730 and was the 1st patient there. The receptionist was kind to us and allowed us to be a walk-in. The vet techs were sooo compassionate. The vet was so knowledgeable and kind. Siamese had multiple brain tumors and a lung mass. She was at the end of her life. They allowed me to go pick up my daughter (17) from school so she could be present during Siamese’s final moments. They were best friends. We were able to hold and love on Siamese as she pasted over the rainbow bridge. The entire office was extremely sweet and helpful. They made our hard decision so much easier. We received a sympathy card in the mail a week later with everyone’s signatures. It was a real nice and personable touch. My daughter also got a plaster impression of Siamese paw print. Thank you soooooo much for all that y’all do for us humans and our love ones!!!!❤️

I had a great experience my first time here with my dog. Staff was very friendly and making an appointment was very easy. The veterinarian was patient and careful with my dog and explained everything thoroughly during the visit.

Lake Dow is the best in the area! Staff is amazing, friendly and always eager to answer questions. Prices are great, in comparison to others. When my older cat needed dental work a few years ago, they were our best option and I’m so glad we found them! We appreciate them so much.

I’ve been taking my dogs to Lake Dow regularly for 15+ years, but something seems to have changed, and not in a good way. I called for an appointment for a sick visit, because my dog had been having digestive issues for over a month and had lost a noticable amount of weight. The woman on the phone said they no longer do ‘walk-ins’; I said I didn’t walk to ‘walk-in, I just wanted their first available appointment. The she said I might want to call other vets to see if someone else had availability. I said, it’s not urgent, so I really just need your next available appointment. She then suggested I call back the following morning at 8am to try and snag an ‘emergency’ appointment with them. I said, again, it’s not an emergency, I just need an appointment - the first one you have available. My dog wasn’t critical, she just needed to be seen and to like lave some blood work to figure out what’s going on. She literally would not make an appointment for this dog, who’s been their patient for 3 years, since her first puppy visit and for all her annual shots and heartworm testing, etc. Are they trying to transition to an emergency or wellness only business model? I just don’t get it, but I have changed veterinarians.
