Do not use Duke Animal Clinic! Our cat was being treated for hepatic lipidosis. Dr duke said the feeding tube was mandatory for a chance of survival and she would need it for 6-8 weeks. After a week with the tube She was getting better so we took her home to continue care at home but The tube fell out and I took her back within 30 min to have it put back in. That was a Saturday and I did not hear back from him until Monday right before close. He claimed she took an interest in Tuna oil so he did not put the tube back in and said i could come get her. Well she wasn't really eating so i took her back. He finally put the tube back in (it was 5 days after the first one fell out). But it was too late she regressed into a worse state than before. I went and visited her and told the vet tech to let Dr duke I wanted to take her home because I didn't want her to die alone. Dr duke finally called me back after hours and said I could come get her tomorrow and that she was starting to look a little brighter again but she died that night at the clinic. I requested her vet record and was horrified to see there was no documentation of treatment for 2 days prior to her death. When I confronted Dr Duke about this his response was "I do not have a scribe following me around". He had zero empathy for the loss of our sweet cat.
Dr. Duke is one is one of the most caring veterinarians in Mobile. He is the only vet I use. He will treat emergencies at no charge if the circumstances warrant. He will come into the clinic, even if it's inconvenient for him, to feed and/or medicate patients every couple of hours. He euthenized our beloved dog, Ruger, and was extremely compassionate. He even let our daughter make her own clay paw. He takes emergencies on Sundays, and stays long hours after closing to tend to patients. He has been in practice for many years and has a wealth of knowledge. If you want a caring, knowledgeable veterinarian, I would highly recommend Dr. Duke.
I had to take my dog in for emergency care when he was ill. They kept him overnight, medicated him and gave him lots of love. I highly recommend Dr Duke and his staff.
There was a small lump on my dog and I took him to Duke and the vet said don’t worry about it, It’s just a mass and “not harmful”. 2 years later it started to grow and grow fast and Duke kept saying it’s ok. My gut told me otherwise. I took the dog to Springhill pet hospital to find out it’s CANCER! Now they are having emergency surgery to HOPEFULLY get all of out but it might be to late. Duke is absolutely a terrible vet. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!!!
To anyone who say differently about Dr. Duke it’s a shame. He has always treated our animals with the utmost respect and bent over backwards, literally to make sure they are comfortable in the worst of times. Thank you Duke Animal Clinic for years of great service and care.
Had to put our cat to sleep, and Dr Duke was the one you did it. My cat was very old and skinny and brittle, it was time. When he got her out of her cage you put her down instead of being gentle with her he grabs her by her head and pulls her out, then when he was putting her to sleep on the table he kept spinning her around like she was nothing, he is clearly only in for the money and don’t care about your pets.
