How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Indianola Veterinary Clinic

Preventive care

I have been lucky enough to have found this amazing Vet Clinic 9 years ago. All of my pets come here. Even after leaving the area for 3 years, once I returned, back to Indianola Vet Clinic we came!! Caring & compassionate doctors and staff. I cannot say enough good about all of them. I drive the 30 min + because they are worth it!! Keep up the awesome Clinic… my 3 pups love you all!!

The team here is fantastic. Everyone communicates clearly and effectively, but more importantly they treat every animal as if they were their own. This clinic also works exceptionally well with reactive/nervous animals. Do not hesitate to take your reactive animals here, just let the staff know when you call what your animals needs! Yes you will have to wait, but the place is so busy because people trust them, they make time to see you and your pet and address your concerns, all while treating everyone so well. Thank you to the staff here, you all are amazing.

Been doing business here for 13 years. Both large and small animal. Very caring and compassionate people. Customer service is awesome but we do miss Dr. Freeze and Dr. Brennan. Still an Awesome staff. Dr. Corbin did an awesome job providing the best care she could to one of our beloved coonhounds. Thanks for all your caring service.

Having to put a pet down is one of the hardest things we experience as people. I cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Ben and his compassion, empathy, and patience when it comes to this difficult moment. Nothing felt rushed—he let me fully express my concerns and counseled me through the decision. The clinic as a whole makes the process as easy as they possibly can, doing everything behind closed doors and giving you as much time with your pet as you’d like. Thank you for everything all of you do. You’re so appreciated.

Their communication is very poor. Last year my dog went under and they saw a few spots that they thought needed to be removed but wanted to wait for my permission. I completely understand, gave them my permission and rescheduled the surgery. They didn't remove the lump that they told me they thought needed removed and would like to wait and see but continued with other bumps that weren't labeled a concern (skin tags). They didn't tell me this prior to at the surgical consultation nor did they tell me when I dropped off my dog. My dogs over 10 years old, he can't be going under for things that aren't important especially when the surgery was originally scheduled for something else. Now, when they tell me in 6 months they need to have the surgery, it will be so much higher risk plus he'll have an unneeded one under his belt
