Preventive care

I brought in a poor doggo who was hit by car and they immediately raced out to rush him back to stabilize him and offer pain relief. They spent hours trying to locate the owner of his microchip to no avail, but they were so gentle and kind that I decided then and there they will be my new primary vet for my own animals. Wonderful team, so blessed to find them! (Photo is of my own dog Harry, not the one who was hit by the car.)

Best vet ever! We love Dr. Farris, Taylor, Laura & all the staff! Both my fur babies act like they’re going to the biscuit factory rather than the vet lol. That says it all! Thank you for all you do!

The staff here is amazing! Everybody from the front desk to the assistants and doctors make an effort to ensure you and your pet are comfortable and informed. I really like how you text before entering to make sure nobody encounters other patients, making sure to keep any nerves at a minimum.

This place is only about your money! They did a procedure on my 9 week old puppy and told me that the stiches would hold for 7 days. However, they came out in less than 48 hours. The doctors told me that they would redo the stiches since it happen so quickly. However, when I asked them to redo do them in less than 48 hours they suggested doing another surgery. If they did not know how to do the procedure correctly, why didn't they just tell me up front? I was going to go through with the recommended surgery, then when I called them to come in they said to go to the ER. I spent roughly $800 with them for no legit care. The procedure was only $158 and the remainder went to medicine. Then, when I went to a new surgical vet they asked what medicine was he on? We then discovered that they did a fecal exam and no worms were detected. Furthermore, they still prescribed him with de-wormer for no reason which made his symptoms even worse! MY $4000 puppy almost died due to malpractice. Thank God, I found someone who knows what they are doing and educated me that they the procedure was done in a new style that has a low success rate. Thank you River Run Animal Hospital for basically stealing from people. Don't Trust Them!
