THEY WILL KILL YOUR PET
I wrote this review on their facebook page and instagram and they deleted it and blocked me. So shady. cant imagine how many horror stories theyve tried to cover up
NEVER GO HERE! THEY WILL KILL YOUR PET!!!!!!
I had an appointment at 5:30 for my very injured Sugar Glider. I called the staff to let them know I was there at 5:20 and no one answered. I saw a staff person come outside and asked them to let someone know i was there. I NEVER heard from them again. I called again and again until someone picked up 20 minutes later. They took down my name, pet name, and car info. I ended up waiting out there 3 more hours. I tried to call a million times. Finally I got a hold of someone and they straight up told me that they forgot about me. They told me the only vet that sees sugar gliders already went home. They said they would call the vert but they never answered. They told me theyd have to admit my pet under emergency and would charge me hundreds more than they said id have to pay originally. I was so upset and everyone I talked to on the phone was so rude. They didnt care at all. Worst staff I have ever seen anywhere. They ended up taking my sugar glider inside for an hour but the vet never answered the phone so they did nothing for her. When they brought her back out to me, she was dead. They KILLED her!!!! save your pets. Never take them in here. Every person I saw walk out the doors was crying. They killed every pet the day of 11/1/21

Took my dog there for tests. Was ripped for a $46.00 "hospital stay" fee although she was there for less than two hours. Wanted to stay with her to observe the tests since she was so stressed out from three previous vet appointments in the last month. I was told that "no one was allowed in the back" and of I didn't leave my dog they would not do the tests. I had no choice! Will not recommend this place. Would give a "0" star rating for their professionalism.

I was very pleased entering this vet hospital was met at door by a very kind lady who told us where to check in .The check in girl was very friendly and the wait was very short.The tech.came and got us and handled dog with up most care. . Them we were met by Dr Collins who spent more then enough time explaining our pets surgery. Left dog there two nights and was called and updated often.When we picked her up check out girl was also very friendly Over all it was costly but worth it to us and the dog is happy again.ThankYou So Much

I had very bad experiences with a woman emergency Vet, DR. GREG CHAMBERS & the surgeon DR. SHELDON PADGETT.

The emergency Vet was kept pushing for me to euthanize my dog right from when I first brought him in.

Dr. CHAMBERS DID NOT FULLY COMMUNICATE THE SERIOUSNESS OF MY DOG'S CONDITION THROUGHOUT OUR INTERACTIONS !

THE SURGEON Dr. PADGETT WAITED NEARLY 3 DAYS TO DO AN EMERGENCY PROCEDURE THEN UNFAIRLY COERCED US HARD TO EUTHANIZE OR JUST GIVE UP AND LET OUR DOG DIE!

Awful! Worst experience. All they wanted was money. Dr. Tried to push surgery for broken leg. $3500 - i do not have. And the Dr. made me feel horrible for not moving with surgery I could not afford. Asked me to call family and borrow $3000. I cried all day... I mean all day. They just left me wait in a room i thunk, hoping I would change my mind. A few days later, I took my little dog to another Vet to have her checked again and was told no way they could have done the surgery without shattering her tiny bone. Never again.

I must say that this hospital may be a Godsend for some, mostly people with A LOT of money. I don't understand such high prices for bandages, and excessive wait times. It's one place you can't leave for less that $300. Unfortunately, that is the state of vet care these days. So many unwanted animals and it's best just to adopt them and care for them, then when there old age sickness comes put them down. It's the most humane thing to do and do they really need to suffer through cancer treatment? (only for their owners, I guess) If you don't have pet insurance I would avoid this place at all costs, unless your dog or cat was hit by a car then bring your high limit credit card.

I called before going in as an emergency to make sure that they could treat birds. I was assured that they could. Upon getting there I was told that the avian vet, Dr. Riggs was there and would be immediately consulted and that my bird was "very stable" ....an hour later I was presented with a paper stating the care would be between $600-$1200 and that my bird was now critical and that treatment may kill him but lack of treatment would for sure. I said, "OK, what have you done for him so far, and what did Dr. Riggs say"....to which I was told, "I am not sure where he went and we have done anything yet because we need you to sign off on this first"....huh?? I paid $111 when I walked in and signed a consent to treat at the same time.... why are we waiting...my bird was bitten by a cat!!! He needs antibiotics! There were NINE employees standing around the front office-area but nobody could figure out what was going on...Angie was rude and too busy training somebody to be bothered with helping a client....I told them to give him the meds, i would pay and take him some place that he could actually be treated! HORRIBLE HORRIBLE experience!! I will NEVER go back! To allow a bird with a CAT BITE to sit for 1.5 hours with NO TREATMENT is inexcusable! I called ahead and left in my pajamas because I knew it was an emergency...why did they not know that

I took my chinchilla here, because it was acting strange and kept having little seizure-like episodes. When the doctor finally came into our room, he said that our chinchilla was stable and was showing no signs or symptoms of abnormalities. He told us we had two options, have the chinchilla admitted ($400) and have numerous tests run the next day or take him home because there was nothing else they could do. We drove 60 minutes away and paid a $110 dollar fee just to bring him in and have doctor tell us to take him home. When the nurse finally brought our chinchilla back, she said that he was acting lethargic. He was spasming as she gave him to us, but the doctor said he was completely stable. As we were leaving, the doctor came out and simply said "Doing better?," then walked away. He died two hours later in my arms. I will never return to this facility as long as I live.

There mission, I feel is our animal comes first. They are very detailed with there exams. And can give you options for the best care & outcome for your animal. Thank you all do very must with our Pippin, we miss him each & ever day. He was such a little fighter.

when we went to emergency, we had great care from beginning to end, the staff was great, the following day we heard from Dr. Daye staff, we had winnie in the following morning, we just received a call to update us on how she is doing, could not of had better care, Dr. Day was loving towards Winnie , and we felt peace when we left, is it expensive yes, is she worth every dime? Yes she is, hats off to the doctors and staff, God Bless you all . The Brienza and the Swegheimer family
