Melinda Upton, DVM

Dr Upton, Theresa and Christine are absolutely the most professional, kind, caring, considerate, hard working professionals I have had the pleasure of working with! When you need them, YOU NEED THEM and they are 100% there for you and your pet. I hope you never need them but if you do, feel at ease knowing they never give up!

We just lost our boxer to cancer. Dr Upton and her staff were very professional but most of all they cared about our boxer like he was their own. They treated him regularly and grew to love him like their own. They gave us an extra year with him for which we’ll forever be grateful.

I found Dr Upton and her staff to be kind, sincere and educated in the services they rendered. They treated me and my pet with respect and consideration. I credited Dr Upton for extending my pets life with not only time, but also quality of life. I am extremely satisfied with the care my pet received from Dr Upton and her staff. We are lucky to have a vet in Tulsa the caliber of Dr Upton. I would highly recommend her.

Dr. Melinda Upton and her staff are the most compassionate and talented professionals. After learning my precious pup, Bruce had lymphoma we were referred to their office for treatment. Dr. Upton was always honest, upfront, and communicated options, cost, and prognosis succinctly and with compassion. Her staff, Theresa and Chris took care of Bruce and me with love and their talents combined gave us 5 more precious months with him. They saw to it that his quality of life was the best it could be while extending his life as best they could. If I called with a need, they addressed it right away and were very flexible in scheduling our appointments in light of the fact that we had to come from OKC to Tulsa for treatment. Dr. Upton, Theresa and Chris are lifetime friends now. I would highly recommend this clinic, but pray you never need them.

Horrible experience. With my beloved little dog I needed this to be a good experience, but it was not. Dr. Upton and her staff were disorganized and confused. More than once Dr. Upton insisted we had had conversations we had not had and made decisions we had not made. It was an uphill battle but since it was my little dog's life I was dealing with, I tried to make due. Today they made another error and initiated a huge miscommunication. But instead of trying to figure it out, fix it, or give me a call, Dr Upton phoned My LOCAL VETERINARIAN (not me - my vet) and cancelled today's chemotherapy for my pet, told them she "felt she wasn't a good fit." I don't know if it was out of embarrassment for how many times they've screwed up, or if they are just that stubborn. At any rate, it is my sweet Kaliope who will suffer from this. She only had two more months of treatment to go and now Dr. Upton has probably ended her life. Don't let her do this to your pet too. Notably Dr Upton reports in her response to this valid complaint that I was belligerent to her staff, which is untrue. I also never said any of the things she reported I said to her. Part of me thinks Dr Upton's tech/receptionist provided her with intentional miscommunication about our conversation, But this has been ongoing, and also should have been handled by a phone call to me from Dr Upton herself instead of thinking I would have said something like that. Also, there is not another chemo clinic near her. The only other one near me is 5 hours away. She also has some facts confused about Kaliope's treatment, which is not new. But that was par for the course with Dr Upton and her office. Extremely poor communication on their part, and took no responsibility for their mistakes and miscommunications. This woman had no qualms about stopping chemo bc of an error on her office's part. The rest I'll take up with Dr Upton through her Vet Board.
