We have used Lowrys Animal Hospital for regular care and emergencies. We simply cannot imagine a more loving environment to bring our loved pets for care. Doc Katrin sits on the floor and plays with my dogs while she talks with me. They show the utmost of care and professionalism, and don't treat you like a number. I've been to those and won't go back. And, even equally important is the lovely young ladies that work the desk. Well mannered and caring young ladies. You can tell they all love their clients with four legs.

I can not say enough wonderful things about Dr Nan. My sweet Toby had been fighting lymphoma for…read moreover 7 months and was finally ready to run, play and swim free from all pains and limitations. Dr Nan came to the house, agreed with how and where we wanted to do the procedure in order to make it as kind and peaceful as possible. She was so calm and loving to Toby and to our entire family. She made a horrible situation survivable.

My baby's only option for pain relief this week was euthanasia. She'd already spent some inpatient…read moretime with her regular vet and she really didn't care for going in to that office. Since this was inherently going to be a stressful situation for me (what an understatement!), I didn't want her to be stressed or afraid too. The regular vet (Dr Melissa Privette of Palmetto Pet Hospital, already reviewed) was entirely sympathetic and recommended Dr Nan. Dr Nan is wonderful. She's caring and compassionate and her come-to-you practice allows her to spend quality time with both you and your pet. She truly cares for both of you! She educated me in advance about the process and what to expect. And she delivered on every commitment, there were no surprises. Dr Nan serves about a 40 mile radius of Charlotte so chances are, she'll come to you. She charges $38-$42 for the visit. Drugs or other supplies needed are extra, just as you'd find in a regular vet office. She treats dogs, cats and horses and can do pretty much anything except surgery at your home. If your baby hates going to the vet's office, give Dr Nan a try. I would not wish a euthanasia situation on any pet parent. But if you are left with no other humane options, make your last choice Dr Nan.

My sweet little dog had been acting funny and yelping in pain so I took him to Dr. Gwinn who…read moreimmediately knew what was wrong. He was so compassionate and loving with my baby.

It's a little bit of a drive for me, but I wouldn't take my baby anywhere else.

My daughter arrived with our baby in her arms--literally dying-- and was rudely treated by the front staff and sent home. Called a liar by staff. I know they are busy but one look in my girl's eyes would have made the difference. Took her to urgent care and they couldn't help. It was too late but it wouldn't have been hours earlier when a client calls the dr to help. Isn't that what they are there for?!? Dr. Love is good and kind but his staff are subpar at best. I would not ever recommend you take your pet here.

We drive…read morerescue cats and dogs to and from veterinarians, shelters and kennels as well as to retail locations that adopt out animals. The Lancaster Animal Shelter collects strays and adopts them out and we are part of that network. Carolina Place is a very nice, friendly and supportive veterinary operations that gives treatment to rescue cats and dogs, does the neutering and spaying operations and insures that inoculations and other treatments are done prior to adoption. Their charges are minimal which is their contribution to supporting the Animal Shelter efforts. Our recent pick up involved Bubba and Wilber, two groggy cats who were recently neutered. They were put in cat carriers provided by the animal shelter so we could take them to a local store that was having a pet adoption fair. Two sweet cats who were most likely "turn-ins" whereby their owners left them in care of the shelter. Many of these animals cannot be adopted and are euthanized, so each time we transport we feel that we are saving the lives of these pets. Carolina Place is so supportive and friendly that you know that they truly care for animals. My guess is that they regularly provide this caring care to animals under their care as well as to the owners of pets of all kinds. Nice professional people.

If I can prevent anybody from witnessing what eyewitnessed December 8th 2025 I'm hoping this review…read morecan do that... The morning of December 8th I brought Felix a cat that I been nurturing since October a little cat that I found outside that I bought a little house for at PetSmart put it in my breezeway where he lived for 2 months .. With Halloween around the corner I was concerned because I was taking care of little Felix and a friend of his which I fed everyday and still do but doesn't hang around like Felix did so I brought Felix in and put him in the side bathroom... When my other cat Sammy who is 15 would be sleeping in another room I would bring Felix in the den and play what a good cat ...I've decided to then call top gun my veterinarian to have him neutered and vaccinated this is a little cat that I brushed cleaned his eyes and nurtured from a little kitten that was outside He wasn't considered feral!!! That evening before I brought him to be neutered I said Daddy's going to take you tomorrow morning and we're going to get you fixed and you'll be meeting your older sister this little guy was so thankful to be in and warm and saved The morning of the 8th got up cleaned his little box that was in the tub in the bathroom he was using Fed him He scratched his little scratching pole climbed it looked up at me like I was the biggest savior! I brought Little Felix into top gun veterinarian the girls at the office couldn't believe how chill he was That's an exact quote as I took him out of his carrier show him off, They assured me things would be fine they would call me around 11:30 12:00 remember I know they take lunch from 12:00 to 1:00... I get a call a little after 1:00 to pick up your little Felix everything went well and he's great takes me 25 minutes to get there I paid the girl at the desk Andy came out with Felix I unzipped the carrier look down Felix was on his back eyes were bulging as far as they could go wide open glazed over eyelids will blue and white paws stretched out extracted and he was choking Little foam in the mouth it was obvious he was no longer mentally there and he was choking for a long time They said oh my god he's having a allergic reaction? I said oh my God and they rushed him in the back me not knowing at the time That being on his back was a death sentence!!! He wasn't monitored They couldn't have even looked at him when they called me He was choking for a while a long while... They worked on him in the back and told me that they felt he was brain damaged Of course he hadn't received oxygen for a while quite a while He was on his back choking on vomit and phlegm while he was under anesthesia probably never came out of it properly it's devastating it's horrific!! I had the owner call me because the vet didn't know what to say when she called cuz she could not disagree with me that he choked and then it was not a allergic reaction to the anesthesia He was on his back!! The owner said to me these things happen with a feral cats were afraid to put our hands In carriers they might bite us ?I said this was a cat I nurtured from a kitten He wasn't feral he was brushed hugged and loved!! She's side and said what would you like me to do?? All I know is that this little guy trusted me and I am devastated I feel like I've done something terribly wrong by even bringing him to be neutered it's an awful feeling awful feeling .. mind you this carry was a very nice carrier with a top that zipped all the way around inside I put a small blanket that Felix would sleep on inside his little house to make him comfortable.. if you remember December 8th was a very cold rainy day, if they felt that The blanket would jeopardize him coming out of anesthesia properly they should have removed it ,They didn't say that I'm thinking if he was on his back how did he turn over how could he turn over that poor guy suffered and it breaks my heart

We will be forever grateful for their attention to detail. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Hovering over a dog you just met to the point where he was visibly uncomfortable was out of touch…read more But what really lost me, was being told "we move at the dog's pace" while simultaneously stressing him out and recommending calming medication for a follow-up visit... then charging me $94 for nothing but stressing him out. From my experience with dogs, the technician needs more training on reading and interacting with dogs. Or this clinic is more interested in selling unnecessary products than providing patient-centered care. My dog loves going to the vet and is usually very loved by staff. He wasn't barking, growling, or snapping, he just kept trying to tuck himself next to me. He made it very clear he was uncomfortable with their approach, and instead of adjusting the approach, the response was to suggest calming medication. Maybe I just had bad luck with the tech; I heard great things about this place. But I'll trust my boy's intuition and not put him through that again.
