As soon as I walked in, they got us right into the examination room which I appreciated so much. This prevented a lot of extra stress on my cat because she didn't have to see a bunch of other animals in a waiting room. Every single person who works here is so kind, empathetic and friendly. I also loved that this is a "no fear" establishment. This means that they didn't scruff my cat during the appointment and they were super gentle with her the whole time. They also brought her in a nice cardboard box to hide in to help calm her down and created a hiding spot with towels for her. My last vet didn't think to do any of this for my cat and they were so aggressive with her which is why we never went back. The people who work here were just very considerate and made me and my pet feel comfortable and well cared for. They were upfront about all costs which I appreciated as well. An added bonus, they have an outdoor patio area right outside the examination room (awesome if you have a dog) and it also allowed you to be able to walk right out to the parking lot instead of having to walk through the lobby which typically stresses animals out because they see other animals coming in. I can't recommend this place enough. You can definitely trust them with your fur babies and know in full confidence they are in good hands at River Oaks Animal Hospital. Thank you guys!

Let me say first that the doctors here are good. Dr. Morris is great. Office staff and techs are…read moregreat. I've only been unhappy with one doc, Dr. K. That was an ortho consult several years ago. He was condescending and fairly rude. Have seen him since and he was ok, so I assume it was a less than ideal day for him. The care is very good. My problem is this: They are way overbooked, even one of the ladies who answers the phone told me they don't have enough doctors for the number of clients they have. HIRE MORE. Or stop taking new clients. When I have a sick pet and am told by their vet that they can't schedule them in for two weeks - and to GO TO THE EMERGENCY VET - that's wrong. You are there to be a patient's regular vet, you don't treat them or their people this way. They are also one of the most expensive vets in the area. No wonder people can't afford some vet care.

We visited this practice for the second time last week in Myrtle Beach from our vacation spot in Sunset Beach. Our first experience was a few years ago when Dr. Black saw our miniature schnauzer Katie, who was an ailing senior citizen. Dr. Black took all the time in the world to examine Katie and to educate my husband on what was going on with her health. She even called my husband after he had returned to Sunset Beach to suggest another medication that might be helpful, and had one of her technicians drop it off at the Food Lion parking lot on her way home! That is how considerate and compassionate she is. We returned last week with our newest mini schnauzer Josie, who had two sets of stitches from an unfortunate encounter with a fox, and our local vet wanted them removed before we returned from vacation. We were so happy to once again call on Dr. Black and enjoyed our experience even more. Her assistant Erika was so nice, and made us feel at home as we waited for Dr. Black. She gave us updates while we were waiting and was very gentle with Josie in getting her ready for her appointment. Dr. Black was as terrific as we remembered her, extremely caring, knowledgeable and gentle with Josie. She removed Josie's stitches and reported that Josie was a perfect patient, and was healing well from her injuries. She is not only a skilled medical professional, but also a very kind and relatable person. If you live in Myrtle Beach with your pet, you are very fortunate to have Dr. Black in your midst! Susan W

This totaled: $1180.00 Do you know what an OSHA fee is? Exam your invoice and question charges. Watch for upselling of procedures and testing. Did you know the average cost of a vet visit in MB is 60.00 I'd like to add that the assistants are friendly.

I took my injured dog in for help and was told it's not an emergency vet. The sign on the front door as well as the sign in the lobby and GOOGLE all say emergency. We sat for a few hours hoping someone would see us. While we were there a person walked in late for their appointment and was told 'we can't see you because you're late'. My dog could have seen the vet in that appointment. The counter lady kept saying we aren't an emergency vet and haven't removed the signs. They lobby sign is in CHALK, not hard to remove. I would drive to Charleston before we ever set foot in this unfriendly place again. They don't care about your pet's health and well being. Go elsewhere and save yourself the heartache.
