I have been taking my senior dog, Carla, to Glenroads Veterinary Clinic for about a year and they have been very professional and thorough while taking care of her. Even during the pandemic, Dr. Flickinger has been available for all of Carla's needs whether it be by phone or in person. The support staff is amazing in communication and scheduling and they are so friendly and welcoming. Carla fell asleep for the last time recently, but when I have a pet in the future, I will certainly trust Glenroads Veterinary Clinic to take care of him or her.

I. Love. This. Place. I called to speak to their resident grooming queen Andrea because I was experiencing difficulty having Zeus groomed. I’d been calling all over the quad cities and Andrea was the ONLY person who took the time to actually ask questions and try to understand exactly what Zeus needed, she made sure I knew the cost of everything and was in contact with the veterinary side to get all my appointments lined up. She even squeezed us in to her crazy busy schedule. The veterinary side is amazing as well. All of the girls that work there were incredibly friendly both with me and with Zeus. It was an incredibly refreshing experience! the vet and all the vet techs were primarily focused on Zeus’s safety and comfort (which I know can be a challenge when dealing with a nervous 70 lb pit bull). I could cry I’m so happy with the service and love I received in visiting this place and I don’t think I could ever go anywhere else. Thank you all so much! Here’s a photo of my handsome boy after his bath!

We have gone to Glenroads for a few years now and safe to say they are the best. I have been to probably 20+ vets for various animals over my life and have never had such high quality care. I am a health care worker myself and have crazy high standards. Appointments are never rushed and they get a full history on your pet. If you are a regular patient and are having an emergency, they will get you in the same day, maybe even within an hour if urgent (for us once!) Their entire staff seems to really care and their receptionist, Arielle, treats you like family. Highly recommended!

We have been using Glenroads Veterinary Clinic for about 13 years now. They have taken quality care of our cats and golden retriever. They are kind and supportive when your pet is in distress. All the Doctors are knowledgeable and all the support staff are patient and helpful. Excellent service and a good value!

I had an awesome experience the very first time calling to schedule appointments for both my little dogs. The front desk was extremely friendly and professional. Dr. Flickinger was extremely professional, caring, gentle and informative about how we can together insure the best way to keep my boys healthy! M Weaver
