    This staff is so amazing. I take my English mastiff puppy and my golden retriever here and was very honest about being taken advantage of by VCA pet hospitals in the past. Instead of taking offense or feeling like I was attacking their profession as a whole, the vet here explain to me why she was administering each thing to each of my pups (one had a hot spot and ear infection, the other was coming for their second parvo shot). They are super sweet and helpful, and I just went in for my pups 3rd parvo shot and rabies shot, they had me in and out in literally 7 minutes or so. Highly recommend

    This place is fantastic! They don't price gouge you and are always accommodating to our every need for our little pets. They don't make us come in for unnecessary visits, always see us timely, and are friendly and personable each visit. I highly recommend for anyone who wants to take great care of their pet, but would also like to retire one day!

    Dieter says the Dr. was very nice to him and says Thank you

    Great place. The Vet is very nice and patient with the animals there. The prices are compatible with other Veterinarians maybe even lower. Will always bring my dog there

    Dr. Wendy and assistant checking blood panel

    Our little guy is getting older so when we found a large lump on the side of his neck and above his collar we were very concerned. Due to the holidays we couldn't get him into his regular vet for a least two weeks so we called Auburn Pet Clinic as we had gone there previously with another dog years before. Dr. Rice was no longer practicing but Doctor Wendy was there and we were able to get an appointment within two days. After a thorough examination and blood work he was put on antibiotics and steroids and then checked again three days later. We felt he was doing much better but Doctor Wendy wanted us to keep him on the antibiotics and steroids until they were gone. Hopefully he is on his way to a full recovery.

    Profit over patients should be their motto. After spending $1500 on allergy testing (I was told…read morelater by another veterinarian it was unnecessary testing). I wanted to save some money by purchasing allergy medication online. It was half the price South Auburn veterinary clinic was charging. And they told me they would only sign to fill online prescriptions once a week on Wednesday. So they forced me to purchase another week of medication from them, or pay another 50+ dollars to get seen by another veterinarian, or make my pets suffer with allergies. Then they act like they were doing me a big favor when they forgot to fill it out on Wednesday the following week and they had to fill it out on Thursday. This place is a scam and I would avoid it at all cost.

That's 44 years ago and they got rabies from wild animals!!! You can't get rabies just by touching or being near an animal WITH rabies (which my dog doesn't have). It's extremely unlikely that you or a pet would get rabies from a scratch. This is just more legal BS to make more money and get on the GOVS books as having a dog so the GOV can get license fees... it's NOT for the dog it's just $$$. I don't like pumping vaccines into me or my animals all the time.

She was so loving with our helping our 19 year old kitty Jet go to her final sleeping place. Every question answered, everything already thought of. She gave us the option to leave her with us, take her/cremate and return, or cremate and have her hang with other amazing pets.

    I went in for a visit with our new puppy. I agreed to some things and declined some others. At each…read morestep the fear mongering was layed on pretty hard. This was not done with conversations about facts, but with statements lacking nuance and assuming that all people who are not vets are idiots. This veterinarian may not be for you if you believe in species appropriate diets, spacing out vaccines, using titer testing, or any attempt to engage in dialogue that goes against their beliefs. I was treated like I might lick my uncleaned counter after prepping raw meats or like I might lick my fingers after picking up dog poo in my yard. On the positives, they do have good weekend availability, fairly reasonable pricing and if you are 100% on board with Western Vet medicine without need for intuition or nutritional approaches, then you will like most of them. There are some truly great people at this vet clinic & not every experience has been negative. My review is based on their unwillingness to have the pet owner be a part of the process and to not being open to dialogue about different approaches to nutrition & care options.

I have been wanted to get her spayed and micro chipped for a while. After going through another company for her shots (and they weren't cheap), I found Animal Spay & Neuter on Yelp. You first need to call and leave them a message with the information they ask on their voice mail. Then, they call you back to get you on the schedule. You need to put down the payment over the phone to secure your spot for the spay or neuter. I was called back about 48 hours later, and on the schedule in less than a week. When the day arrived, you need to arrive at 7:30am and call the number on the banner at the front entrance to let them know your there. Then, you go up to the window when they call you back, to check in. They have the option to micro chip your furry friend, so if course, I wanted Sophie chipped. That I paid for when she was ready for pick up. They tell you they'll call you when your loving pet is finished. Sophie was done later that morning and would be ready for pick up at 1:30pm. Everyone here seemed so gentle and loving with Sophie. They are amazing for what they do. I am so thankful they were able to help me take good care of Sophie!

    Just a heads up for anybody getting a cat neuter or spay:…read more They will add a 5 dollar (at least) charge for being "rowdy", which is weird because when I was picking up my cat, every single person got the same charge with no previous warning. Also, they charge 6 dollars for a cone and say that they don't supply the cone because the cat was acting fine when with the vet (which was when they were sedated. Another thing, they have a sign that says to call them upon arrival and they will call back when ready, but even though I was the first one to arrive and call I was only helped after 5 people so they really need to fix the whole system here.
