It has taken me a little bit longer to write this overdue review because I was grieving the loss of my Ginger. Lake Area Animal Hospital was a blessing to me as to why my cat was so sick. I had taken her to a few other vet clinics with no actual answers but added medications. I just wanted answers to what was wrong with her. Even though the drive was over an hour from my home I didn't mind. From the moment I called to get Ginger in, until I left with my heart broken I had the best experience here. My heart broken because the news of my cat not being able to survive was devastating. But finally, I received answers. A few days later I received a card from this hospital with uplifting words from everyone. I cried and so full of emotions but thought this was such a caring thing to do. Thank you so much Dr. Hicks and everyone! Your hospital is where I want to continue to bring my little furbabies! Blessings to you all for what you do for families!
Wonderful and caring staff! Dr. Joseph Stark and all of his staff are wonderful beyond words! We live in Ragley, La. and pass by many other animal clinics to get to Lake Area Animal Hospital. Very attentive, professional and caring! Never in a hurry to rush you out the door. Extremely thorough in explaining every detail of our pets concerns and needs. I highly recommend LAAH to all of my friends and family!
My cat was very close to death due to a cyst and I was lucky enough to find lake area hospital. My little buddy was a new patient and they saw him the same day to treat the infection. Thanks Dr. Ashley for the great care.
I love the doctors and staff at lake area animal hospital. They truly make you feel like your fur baby is part of their amazing family... its awesome starting at reception desk all the way thru to the back. Dr Houston picked up on issue with my dog with in secs of us being in the room with her.... so appreciative because our fur babies depend on us and their doctors for their voices.
On March 14-17 2024, we left our dog for boarding ( 4 days ) and provided our own food (individual containers) to be given to our dog. The day we picked up our dog at the hospital we were told that everything was fine. We went home and noticed our dog was slow and weak... and when we looked at the bag, the food was pretty much intact and only one container was empty. Immediately called the hospital and they mentioned that dog ate the first day but not the remaining 3 days. We did not receive a call during these 3 days not to mention that additional food was not offered to our dog as discuss with hospital personnel during the call. We are disappointed with the boarding service provided and hoping it will improve.
I can't say enough good things about Lake Area Animal Hospital. Zeke has been going there for all of his eight years of life and will hopefully go for another eight years. We didn't know if we would stay when Dr. Stark retired, but stuck it out and we're glad we did. Not only are Dr. Houston and Dr. Briscoe caring and compassionate to our dog and us, but all of the girls working there are awesome to Zeke. They all know him by name. He was recently really sick and we thought he was going to have to be put him down. Not only did the doctors not give up on Zeke, I think it was just a big challenge to get him healthy. They have diagnosed him with Addison's Disease and he is now way better. He's energetic and has gained the two pounds he had lost. My wife and I are truly grateful to them for their hard work, because now we can hopefully enjoy Zeke for several more years.
