My mother recently left her small yorkie at this clinic for an extended stay while she was on a cruise. We picked her dog up sticky and wreaking of urine. We’d understand a small odor after being in a kennel and around other dogs, but this was to the extent of mistreatment of the animal. The front desk was kind and offered for us to bring her back to be washed, but my mother no longer trusts her dog with these people.

Medical staff is definitely attentive, efficient & have genuine concern for their patients. Unfortunately, this clinic has few if any discounts for a family w/multiple pets and their fees are generally higher than other vet clinics. This is our local clinic of choice out of convenience as opposed to a longer drive to West Columbia, a clinic of more reasonable prices.

Very friendly and caring staff. Dr Miller even though he couldn't pull Emerys broken tooth he explained why he couldn't do it. (her tooth is a healthy but broken tooth, she broke her k9 so its really hard to get the Nerve out) The other vet DIDN'T tell us this. They just gave us a price.

I’ve been bringing my kitty Monte here three years or so and wouldn’t take him anywhere else. I also brought my kitty Buddy here until he passed away, and these folks couldn’t have been any kinder and more compassionate. I would refer this office to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pets.

I absolutely love dr Miller and his workers! He and his workers are not only professionals, but they genuinely care for their patients. I found a kitten a few months ago that was sick, dr Miller and crew helped make him better. They have preformed the spay and nueter surgeries on all three of my cats, they all healed up without any complications. I will continue to bring my kitties here for all their vet needs (=

We had a very unfortunate experience when euthanizing our dog. He was around 15 and the vet didn’t use a two-injection procedure (the first to calm the animal or lidocaine to anesthetize the vein and the second to induce death). He weighed 6 or 7 pounds and his veins were old and frail. They put in an an IV port and brought him in the room. The pentobarbital or whatever was used hurts a lot when injected (particularly in small and old dogs with poor veins) and the syringe with the medicine came out of the IV port after just a little had been administered. He started crying and he had to be held down while they tried to get the needle back in the catheter. The purpose of euthanizing an animal is to relieve pain and suffering and that’s not what happened in this case. It is a haunting memory. I had a good, productive talk with the vet afterward. She didn’t want that to happen anymore than we did and we talked about how she planned to prevent something like that from happening in the future. Before he died, as he got sicker and sicker, she tried her best to make him comfortable and it is unfortunate his life ended the way it did. I’d be happy to go back with our other pets if not for the terrible memory.
