Good service with friendly & helpful staff! Convenient Saturday hours for Emergencies & Walk-ins only (1st come-1st serve.) They have a separate building of decent size next door for Boarding. They offer online access to your account. Overall fantastic!!

Took my dog in for diarrhea. My vet was a young man named Aubrey. He hydrated my dog & gave medicine. This caused a huge water bubble under his chest. Took my dog back when medicines didn’t help. By now my dog had pure liquid for a bowel movement. Aubrey replenished the same useless medicines. I knew he didn’t know what to do. I talked to the receptionist & she told me to try Dr Shealy or Wagner & another doctor. I took my dog to Urgent care in Columbia. An ultrasound show a huge water pocket by my dogs heart. He contracted pneumonia & diagnose with Inflamation Bowel Disease. He lived in an oxygen tank for 4 days. I believe Aubrey caused the pneumonia and the water pocket by his heart. I conferred with the vet regarding Aubrey’s hydrating method & they just shook their heads at the water bubble he caused. I posted on our community facebook & found a family stating this same doctor didn’t help their pet. By the time their dog was diagnosed with another vet it was too late to help. I’m not saying don’t use this practice. I’m saying if that young guy named Aubrey walks in the exam room grab your pet & run out screaming!!!

I came here for a C-section after my dog successfully delivered 3 healthy puppies at my home.The only reason I decided to take my pet to the vet to deliver the remaining puppies she had inside her was because I had concerns of her catching a infection later due to afterbirth.Within 2hrs of arriving at the vet my dog was able to walk in the building with no issues.Later I was informed that the remaining 3 puppies inside my dog were dead or clinging to life due to stress from being stuck in the mothers canal (which was impossible).I requested to see them & they clearly had nice pink gums & moving .After also seeing the mother of the pups in a deep sleep for 5hours after leaving the vet I realized that the veterinary administered too much anesthesia & that caused two of my puppies to pass away . Also please ask to visibly see your deceased puppies if you get a C-section here because after I was told my puppies were dead/dying if I didn’t “repeatedly” request to see them they would have kept the one puppy that was still alive !

These people are just amazing ! They work their butts off on a daily to make sure your fur baby is seen. My fur baby has been going here for over 10 years! I would not take her anywhere else. Best of all they make sure they stay in your price range and making sure they are fixing the problem as best as they can( if you don’t have the funds for it). They treated my baby like she was a Princess today and made a very scary situation for me and her into a solution ! Left with answers. Thank every single one of y’all I don’t know what this world would be like without vets.
