    I've been going to Dr. Clayton for years. I foster, dog sit and have three dogs of my own. So…read morelong as the care you need is relatively simple and your animals are healthy, the office seemed great. However, when the time came that I had two very sick pets, I had a horrible experience with the care, diagnosis and customer service at this office. I will never recommend somebody go there again. I took my dog, Sherman, in Monday morning, as I knew something was seriously wrong. Sadly, they misdiagnosed him and sent Sherman home with Pepcid; but offered to keep him for observation. Given that they had just evaluated Sherman, I didn't feel it was in his best interest because he would not be able to get decent rest while they "observe" him in between appointments. They already knew he had been vomiting and not eating. Two days later, Wednesday, nothing had changed, and Sherman was considerably more ill and with a fever. I brought him in, they took his temperature, did a blood draw and offered to keep him to "observe" again. They had no explanation of what they would do differently other than wait for the blood panel to come back. I knew lying in a cage at the vet office would only cause him additional anxiety when he was already very sick. By Thursday, my other dog, Maisie, started falling ill. The Clayton vet could not fit me in until Friday later in the morning. I called earlier that Friday and spoke with a technician, to try and understand what they were going to do differently. Suddenly, Dr Anne Clayton came on the phone and started berating me. After remaining silent while she went on a rant for 2 1/2 minutes, she ended the call by telling me to go to another vet. There I was on a Friday morning, now with two very sick dogs, looking for a new vet. Thank God for All Star Veterinary in Westfield! Absolutely amazing! They fit us in immediately, repeated the appropriate bloodwork and started my dogs on the antibiotics they needed. It was dicey over over the weekend as I had to hydrate both dogs with a syringe until the antibiotics kicked in. My first dog had a much longer road of recovery given that he had gone so long before receiving proper care and medicine. After the weekend, I texted Clayton Vet to see if they would bare any responsibility for what had taken place. I understand that sometimes we have bad days or mistakes happen. Instead, he responded defensively, stating he listened to the recordings and that he was inactivating my account. I understand his desire to back the other veterinarians at that office. But he could've responded simply with, "We had a lot going on at the time. Sorry if things slipped... how are the dogs doing now?" After years of a business relationship, and sending them many new clients, it is disappointing to say the least. My dogs almost died as a result. Dr. Clayton told me that he had a recording of the call - I strongly encourage him to post that recording for others to decide for themselves. What's a shows an additional testament to their ignorance and customer service is how they continue to advertise on their Yelp page. They're actually using a picture of MY dogs, standing in MY front door to promote their business. See below.

    I love this practice. I've been a client of Dr. Ross Clayton since about 2004 when he was part of…read moreanother practice. Even when I lived in Bloomington for a while, I still drove up to Carmel with my dogs (I live in downtown Indy now and the drive is 100% worth it). He is very knowledgeable in his field, keeps up with current research, and is the kind of vet I can trust implicitly. He gets to know you and your dogs, and he really partners with you in their care. He knows my philosophy on things like when to prioritize comfort over cure and what matters to me. I've spent many years adopting older special needs dogs, and he has been invaluable in their care. I've also seen Dr. Dana Graham at times with acute issues and she is so thorough with how she approaches complex medical issues and also really partners with me for making medical decisions about my dogs. We have also seen Dr. Dan Genatiempo for euthanasia and he was so calm and compassionate and just really made the whole experience exactly what it should be. All of the staff is great - the techs, the front desk, everyone. They know my dogs and are always caring and helpful and just in general great to work with - especially when you are in an emotional moment like significant health conditions and end of life. I never give my trust in healthcare providers easily, but this practice truly has my trust. They are so rare and wonderful.

    When they had two locations, the one on main street was amazing. Ever since closing that location…read moreand apparently letting go the vet and staff there, I've had mixed care at the original/remaining location. Some techs have wrong billing information, some vets glazing over important information, assuming you can afford all recommendations, and despite multiple follow up visits, my pets aren't getting better. Their lifetime vaccine policy was excellent but is no longer offered to new patients. They handle the pets with care, even reactive ones. The techs are relatable and very loving to my pets, but the vets aren't solving long term problems

    Miss Daisy and I both enjoyed the experience from start to finish. Miss Daisy is the world's cutest…read moreAmerican Bulldog/Boxer, in case you were wondering. I'll add Daisy photos to this review for kicks. The personal touch at Leo's Pet Care takes the experience to the next level. You can't help but leave knowing they truly care about the health of your pet and client education. In Daisy's case, we had a yearly check up, nail clipping, heart worm test and two non-cancerous tumors tested. All good for my "80 yr. old" pup. Leo's Pet Care has two location in the Indianapolis/Carmel area. Make certain to check in on the Yelp app, they donate one pound of dog food to the Humane Society with each check in. I also recommend following them on Facebook to learn more about your pup/kitty and ask questions. Now, if only there were a sixth star...

    Trigger warning: pet bereavement…read more We are newer to the area and had went to a vet on Springmill but I didn't care for his bedside manner towards my cat. Anyways, Lilly Vanilly (Lilly) was always food insecure. She was a dumpster kitty that was weaned way too soon. She became obese and had some health problems because of it. Last month she became constipated. She would strain and cry. We attempted all of the things. Pumpkin, forcing fluids, high fiber wet food. We made an appointment and they got us in the same day for a ROUTINE appointment. They didn't charge for an ER appointment which I appreciated. They took X-rays and Lilly needed to be deobstipated. I left her there for the afternoon. The initial deobstipation didn't work. The second one a few days later worked much better and she seemed like she was getting along much better. Back to her normal self! Fast forward a week later and she was just not doing great. She had to go to the kitty ER in Indy and stayed for a day. Anyways long story short they fixed her once again. Temporarily. We lost our poor girl today. I'm not sure if it was the constipation or the fact that she may have had an obstruction but her last month of life was heartbreaking. All-Star was incredible through the entire process. Seeing these comments about how expensive it is has been strange because I feel like the cost of services is on par with any other facility but the staff here shines! Even follow up texts to ensure things are going well. Yesterday I made an appointment for 0800 today because she stopped eating and began exhibiting signs of generalized weakness. Lilly didn't make it to her appointment. She passed about 7am today. I still brought her in, but a different kind of appointment. We made the decision to get the personalized cremation where they return the ashes in an urn of your choice. They also allowed me to take paw prints which I turned into art. They'll do much better prints for me as well (I'm not a professional paw print taker, but I love to paint and Lilly would always kind of just sit and watch while I create. I'm glad I had supplies with me today) anyways. As sad as this story is I still have two cats as patients and I'm very impressed with the care that we received.

    Dr. Foust is the best vet I have ever taken my pets to. She helped with my cat's very difficult…read moremedical issues and made him healthier in his last years than he was his whole life. Both she and Sydney guided us through putting him down when it was time and made it a memory that we can look back on without guilt or regret. It was as good as a sad situation like that could be. We just adopted an older dog with an unknown past and I was so grateful to book an appointment with Dr. Foust the morning after we got her. She gave her all she needs medically and advice for us for helping her adjust to her new life. We just moved out of state and I will miss her and Sydney and appreciate the extra time and care that they gave my family during the 2 years we lived there.

Dr. Cable comes in with a very calm manner and loads of yummy dog treats: * peanut butter, which is smeared on a paper plate * wet dog food, also put on a paper plate * other good things my girls love/loved. Each had a slightly rough first meeting, as they hadn't met her, but once they got whiffs of things in the basket she brings in, well, they were in love. She's always aware of their moods and reactions and easily works to reassure them, which has been quite successful. The main issue I have has been getting one or the other through the waiting room, as both are/were very protective. The costs are a bit high, but I've joked with friends that I put money into a matching 401(k) at all my jobs mostly for my dogs' care. Even if I hadn't, I'd stick with Dr. Cable. The staff is also exceptional. They've gotten to know my dogs and have helped with getting them in the door and into an exam room. So appreciate that.

    So far so good. We have taken our pup here twice. They offer a free first visit, which we took…read moreadvantage of. At the first visit I felt like they were really trying to sell me several things we didn't necessarily need. Something was a little off the first visit but it wasn't terrible. We ended up having our pup neutered here and I was really wowed by this (second) visit. Our dog is very anxious and reactive, but thanks to the staff working this day he did fine on surgery day. Shout out to Kaity!!! Her calm and slow demeanor (he feels threatened by quick movements) made our pup feel very comfortable and safe. Kaity was very informative and I did not feel she was trying to sell us things, which was a stark difference from our first visit. I do think the prices are on the higher end but they are "carmel prices". The facility is very clean and nice so I do not mind paying a little extra.

Next, the vet techs are all so kind and compassionate. My dogs immediately warmed up to them and felt at ease. They also explain everything well and share a variety of treatment or care options. None of my other vets have gone so far to explain my options or give me any choice in care honestly. I cannot say enough how much I appreciate their empathy and their detailed explanations! Finally, the prime pet plan helps us to save money with my younger pup who often gets sick and needs care. I don't have to second guess myself anymore if it's worth going in and getting a bill because I know now that she'll be covered under the plan for visits.
