I have been looking for a new vet closer to home and found Simmons Veterinary Clinic through a FB…read morepage referral. So thankful for this referral!! My super high-energy Frenchton, Miles, had an injury over the holiday weekend, which I thought was his back leg. I made an online appointment request for the next available weekday, which was approved first thing in the morning. The online appointment system is so easy and very efficient. The facility is adorable, spotlessly clean, and the staff is amazing. Sharif is an absolute angel, treating Miles like his own pet, and I really want to be his new best friend, Lol! Dr Simmons is fantastic and took so much time with Miles, explaining the injury and the required treatment. I feel confident he will be feeling back to himself soon once we get thru this rest period to heal what turned out to be a herniated disc in his lumbar spine. I have happily found my baby's new vet and feel very confident in the care my sweet boy received today! I was sent an email with the notes about the visit which was such a nice touch. I have never received anything like that with any other vet office. I am very thankful I was referred to Dr Simmons!

What a great experience! I have a blue heeler who is very on edge when we are out in public and…read morebeing amongst other dogs. At Simmons veterinary clinic we got amazing treatment from the time we stepped in with front desk administrator, to nurse and Dr. Simmons himself. Really loved the intimate approach and made our visit smooth sailing and most importantly my pup went through with the visit without being stressed out and left the clinic a very happy dog, that is priceless! We live out of state but will be driving to Simmons clinic for routine check ups and vaccinations because they were just that great ! .

We adore the folks at North DeKalb Veterinary. Dr Lloyd has…read morelong been known as the cat whisperer. I saw why at my first visit in 2022, when he was able to efficiently and accurately diagnose a chronic case that stumped three other Vets. They are now our first call when we realize we have a foster cat with a potentially medically complicated or confusing case. Doctor Lloyd has been able to help us get answers and better understand treatment options for medical multiple foster kitties for us over the last few years - from an older kitten who kept getting high fevers and bizarre symptoms, a young cat that showed signs of feline hyperesthesia, a tiny kitten who turned out to have a rare congenital cardiac condition (both are adults and doing great!), our own sweet but very skittish cat who needed complicated dental surgery, and a geriatric sweetheart with a laundry list of medical issues who found himself on an EU list at a rural shelter, Dr Lloyd helped us understand what to look out for with his conditions and what to balance in his treatment plan for best quality of life during his hospice foster time with us. They have always taken the time not only to explain any findings or recommendations and answer questions, but to make sure the cat had the best possible experience during the exam with the least amount of stress. The bedside manner grabbed my attention before they'd even had a chance to show the medical brilliance. I felt bad at first booking my resident cats for an appointment bc it seemed greedy to use that sort of amazing diagnostic and treatment planning ability to just give a routine check up and vaccines, but I'm so, so, so glad we did Eternal gratitude to these folks, especially Dr. Lloyd.

On top of their great care, they're also practical and thorough, providing sound advice without over-medicating or over-prescribing. He manages cats so well, their anxiety is incredibly lower under Dr. Lloyd that our previous vets. Can't say enough good things; if you're on the fence, give N. Dekalb vet your business... you won't be sorry!

On 11/11/25, we brought our dog Latte to the ER for the third time, and once again there was…read moreabsolutely no urgency, compassion, or real medical care. He sat in the back for over 3 1/2 hours with no fluids, no meds, and no update. The tech was nonchalant when I expressed concern, and Dr. Peters brushed everything off--suggesting Latte may have "eaten an acorn or turmeric," completely ignoring his two-year oncology history and the $20K+ of treatment we've done at this hospital. We also learned that day that our amazing oncologist Dr. Mobley was gone -- and it shows. The doctor who replaced her, Dr. Callahan, has shown zero interest in communicating. Every attempt to reach him was met with pushback. How are we expected to keep spending thousands at a hospital where we can't even speak to the specialist responsible for our dog's care? Thank you to Cassandra, the only tech who actually gave Latte fluids and medication, and to Desha, who listened to my concerns. Meanwhile, the office manager never followed up. Then, without my consent, Latte's oncology appointment was canceled. When I called about an estimate later that week, they hung up on me. And this wasn't an isolated issue. Since 11/13, I contacted St. Francis over four different times trying to reach their oncology team and the office manager about Latte's condition, the lack of urgency, and the negligence we experienced during not one but two ER visits. I was dismissed repeatedly. I was told they were "busy and short staffed," placed on hold, and when the call disconnected, they never called back. My inquiries were never passed along to the people in charge. I called again on 12/2, after Latte had passed away, and was told the office manager had been "informed" and would contact me. It is now 12/4. Still nothing. The most heartbreaking part? St. Francis's ER doctor told us Latte was probably just experiencing stomach discomfort from an acorn. In reality, Latte was already in kidney failure. The oncologist who reviewed his bloodwork never told us that -- he only said some values were elevated and recommended a low-fat diet and an internal medicine follow-up. I physically went in the next day and booked that appointment myself because no one at this place was taking initiative. One week later, at Thrive, we were finally told the truth: Latte was in kidney failure. Two days later, he was gone. When Latte fell critically ill, we were so exhausted and traumatized by St. Francis's neglect that we had to rush him to a completely new ER -- VEG. They were the exact opposite of St. Francis: quick, compassionate, responsive, and they let us speak with the doctor before we arrived. As soon as we walked in, they rushed Latte into triage and immediately began treatment. They treated it like an emergency -- something St. Francis has never done. When Latte passed, VEG didn't even charge us for the ER visit. They sent us a card signed by the entire staff with condolences. Dogwood contacted us with kind words. Dr. Clark, an oncologist from Dogwood, personally called and spoke to us in detail for 30 minutes about Latte and offered sincere condolences. Meanwhile... St. Francis Oncology has not reached out at all. I even called them to inform them Latte had passed when I canceled his internal medicine appointment -- and still, nothing. After $20,000+ in oncology visits, surgeries, chemo, and thousands more in ER visits, they couldn't even make one phone call. All of the people who ever cared have left, and now I understand why. We've brought three dogs to St. Francis since 2022. We have lost two under their care, partially due to negligence. We will never subject our last dog or any future pets to their unprofessional, unethical, profit-driven system again. Please, I am warning you: DO NOT take your pet here. Nothing is an emergency to them. Their turnover is alarming. Their empathy is gone. Their priorities are money, not your pet. Your pets deserve better. Blue Pearl, VEG, Dogwood -- literally anywhere else but St. Francis.

After 16 wonderful years, the health of our dog , Jett started to decline. It got to the point…read morewhere he could no longer get up on his own. Seeing him like this was completely devastating. I brought him in to the emergency room for an examination and the doctor said that it was very unlikely that his health would improve. I was heartbroken and a complete mess. The staff was very kind to me. After deciding on euthanization, a staff member discussed the different options of cremation. I decided on a private cremation. I decided to stay with Jett while he was euthanized. The process was surprisingly peaceful. The room they placed us in was clean and calming. I was able to stay as long as I needed to. About 2 weeks later, they called to let me know that Jett's urn was ready for pickup. In addition to a beautiful urn, I also received a paw print and certificate of cremation. They even included a pamphlet on dealing with grief. Jett brought my family so much joy over the past 16 years and I'll miss him dearly. I am truly grateful for the staff at St. Vincent for showing genuine concern during my grief and assisting Jett with passing away peacefully.
