How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Augusta Animal Clinic

Preventive care

We have taken our dogs here for the last couple of years and cannot recommend them highly enough. We recently had to take our beloved girl Finn in to be put to sleep. While there's no such thing as a good experience in putting a pet to sleep, we couldn't have asked for a better one. Dr. Lee and Jessica were excellent with our Finn and genuinely kind. This is a practice that really cares about animals and about their humans.

Saw their advertising on their car and approached him. Ask if he is taking any new pets. Told me sure. Told I had a 3 year old Long Hair Shepherd. Told him he is a little on the rowdy side. He's answer to me that he wasn't equipped for rowdy dogs. Then he turned his back on me and walked away. Meds do calm him down. he just needs his shots. If anyone knows of a good German Shepherd vet, please let me know.

My cat had surgery which I would rate 5 stars. After the surgery he had diarrhea and they sold me “medicine” for $45 which I found out after Chewy sold for $9. They also charged me $70 for the followup appointment after the surgery. The vet took no more than 30 seconds looking at the operating site to make sure it had healed ok. Should that not have been included in the surgery which was a few thousand dollars. I will not go back. How can you trust a vet that overcharges that much????

My family took our dog to Dr. Lee today. From start to finish, the experience was phenomenal. The staff immediately greeted our little one and made him feel very welcome for his first visit here. Dr. Lee is incredibly personable. He took the time to listen to each of our concerns, very empathetically. The doctor reviewed the entire history we brought along and talked with us about it all - plus some current issues. He took his time with us - we never felt rushed. Thankfully, everything checked out alright, and we were on our way (with a very reasonable bill, too!). Trust Dr. Lee with any animal - he cares deeply about them and also about us, as their owners/family.

I’ve taken Ollie (my 18 yr old cat) to Augusta for better than a year now. I have found them to very responsive, they explain everything's thoroughly and have a genuine concern for health of the pet.In a word, excellent. I highly recommend them. No matter what part of the area you’re coming from, it’s worth the distance to get the kind of care that’s offered
