This new owner is very hateful. He has seen my service dog for over a year. Since he took…read moreownership, he said I was rude to the staff and argued over 80 cents. He also stated I'd have to go see another vet. This is all slandering and untrue. I was short 80 cents and was going to go to my car to get the 80 cents, but a wonderful staff member said she would take care of it. This Dr denied my prescription for my service dog because he said I was looking for a new clinic. Why in the world would I look for a new clinic until he denied me the prescription for my service dog. Yes, I said I would have to look for someone else if he refused to fill any medication for my service dog. I did have to take her to Mountain View Humane to get her spayed due to my disability and lack of income. I thought at one time Blacksburg Animal Clinic was the best! This is not the case after DR Watson bought the clinic. He actually spoke with me on the phone as well and was very hateful and domineering. I tried to explain and he said he would send my medical records to whoever I wanted, then blocked my number as I only had a few hours to choose a new vet. I then emailed him to try to explain because he wouldn't give me a chance to speak on the phone when he called back. I said I'd have no choice to report him to the state board and DCA. He just gave me a hateful answer and then proceeded to tell me to do as I see fit. It's like he doesn't care! Who wants a vet like this?

BAC is a wonderful animal clinic! My girl Mildred (border collie mix) had some kind of problem with…read moreher ear that seemed to come out of nowhere. I called them up and fortunately they had a drop-off slot available. When I dropped Millie off the staff was very friendly and welcoming. By the early afternoon one of the veterinarians rang me, and went onto express she had contracted an ear infection. He administered some medication, and explained I shouldn't have to worry moving forward. When I picked her up she was clearly feeling much better. Since the visit Millie has been just fine. I'm most thankful for everything the folk at BAC did for her. They are officially Mill's vet! Thanks again y'all!

I brought my dog in to be evaluated for vomiting and clearly informed Dr. Matt McCormick that my…read moredog is reactive. I requested and placed a muzzle before the exam began. During the physical exam, instead of asking me to assist with restraint, which has worked well with other veterinarians, Dr. McCormick began pinning my dog firmly against the exam table in an attempt to control him. My dog became extremely distressed and ultimately urinated and defecated during the restraint. The level of force used felt excessive given that his anxiety and reactivity had been clearly communicated. I had to intervene and remove my dog from the situation. I understand that reactive dogs can be challenging to examine, but I expected a more collaborative and low-stress approach. Based on this experience, I will not be returning to this clinic.

They did not acknowledge my concerns about my pup. They insulted me by saying that her symptoms…read moremust be caused by her food (which they don't sell) or my well water (which tests clean) or Lyme (which was not warranted). I was told to change her food and come back in two weeks. I went elsewhere and got a diagnosis of a serious disease which I had suspected all along. The new clinic listened to me and answered my questions. The correct tests were ordered, and I finally got treatment. The new clinic always provides written discharge notes. I had to call multiple times to get the test results from Companion. I felt like I was a bother - not a client. Dr Fabrizi there was the only one who did at least acknowledge the symptoms.

Visited Dr. Young on Monday an hour before they closed to get some flea medication for my three…read moredogs. The Vet only spent a few mins with my girls as I expressed my concerns about some dry skin. He gave no recommendations or medication for her skin. I was promptly sent to the front where they told me my bill. I was surprised at the amount so I asked about the meds and how long it last. They said only a month. I requested something that would last longer since I was shipping out in a month. They finally gave me bravecto which last 3months. I then had to write two different checks because the woman upfront wasn't paying attention to the total nor was my bill itemized. I have no idea how much the visit costed. I called before I showed up and was never informed that they only accept cash or check. Would have been nicer to know that before hand. Walk ins are convenient but there is no compassion at the front desk.

Dr Young really loves animals otherwise he would overcharge like most vets do. He's kind & compassionate & his staff has always been so great.

I brought my dog there because of weight loss and a hard mass on his side. While vet was doing…read morephysical examination she said she couldn't feel anything that wasn't normal. Saying that was part of a dog's anatomy and not to worry. I felt relief after hearing this and waiting patiently over the next month hoping to see him gain weight, which never happened. Once I witnessed his puppy energy starting to decrease and appetite slowly fading, I setup an appointment at a different vet. During the week I had to wait before they could see him, he really went downhill, and died the very next day after that vet visit. The mass on his side was a cancerous tumor that grown so large it had taken up all the space in the lower part of his body. I felt something was not right the day I first saw that bulge on him. Took him to Riverside that same morning. Now I'm left to wonder, would he still be alive if the vet knew what a dog's anatomy should feel like. I feel that should be basic knowledge if you are a professional small animal vet. I trusted she knew what she was doing. and now my 1 and 1/2 year old puppy is dead. Im heartbroken.
