Conner arrived feeling unwell, and the doctor along with the vet tech demonstrated exceptional skill in promptly identifying my pet's ailment. They swiftly transferred him to a reputable pet hospital, where he received top-notch care. I greatly appreciated the follow-up call from the staff to inquire about his condition the following day. The team's compassion, friendliness, and dedication to both pets and their families truly stood out to me.

Amazing place! All the Doctors and staff are wonderful! If they are booked for the day they will immediately call you to see if you can come for an appointment that canceled. Dr. Christine Eidson cared for my 16 year old fur- baby very well and made my decision that no one wants to make very soothing and comforting. Thank you to you and all your staff.

My dog was a new patient and they had access to her records. She was fully vaccinated, radiologist readings, blood work, and had her teeth cleaned in the past couple years. They ordered new X-rays and I didn't blink that it cost over 500 dollars. Money is not an issue when it comes to any of my pets. She was diagnosed with a heart murmur. She was getting worse and I knew she was suffering. Long story short I knew it was time to put her to sleep. The doctor wanted to try one more drug. Of course you listen to the doctor. After the doctor left the room the hired temp vet tech belittled me for wanting to put her to sleep. I told her she was a rescue and she stated "How long have you had your dog" I told her I've had my dog 6 years.Then she said "Oh I was going to tell you to take her back to the rescue center instead of killing her" I left because I was in shock and didn't say anything. My dog died 2 days later. She suffered because I didn't have time to rush her to the hospital. Now I have to live with knowing I should've following my heart and put her to sleep. I should've told the vet tech to shut the hell up and demanded to talk to the vet again. PLEASE PLEASE remember you might see a vet tech that is not employed there. When I called to tell them what happened that was their excuse. She isn't employed with us. PLEASE READ THEIR REPLY!!!! WE ARE SORRY FOR YOUR DISSATISFACTION. I feel like I just returned an item to Walmart. I live in a retirement community and I've been spreading the word to avoid this place. The feedback is that people have heard bad things and they will spread the word about my precious dog.

I have been bringing my pets to Sangaree Animal Hospital for 24 years. I started at the Sangaree location & switched to the Cane Bay location because it's closer to home. The doctors & staff are amazing, caring & professional people. The most difficult thing for a pet owner is saying goodbye to a beloved family member & they are incredibly compassionate when that unfortunate time comes. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

My dog had an ear infection and they were able to see us the same day! Everyone from the front desk (Melissa) to the technicians (Kris) were very thorough and kind. My girl was crazy but the doctor loves her! Thank you Dr Reyes!
