I cannot say enough how much I LOVE this vet. Dr Andrews and her staff are the most amazing and caring vets I have ever worked with. You just can tell she truly cares about all animals, AND their owners (that is the important thing).
When we lived in Athens, our oldest Husky was going to a different vet (on 29 close to Hull). Not only did they charge an outrageous amount for just plain check-ups, they kept charging us hundreds and hundreds more dollars when we had questions about a sore on his neck. Three different diagnoses - all wrong, and thousands of dollars wasted. And all of the diagnoses were COMPLETELY different from the one before. (1) Its just a bug bite, (2) Maybe he got shot with a BB gun and it lodged in his skin, (3) Looks like a growth. All three of these scenarios ended with us paying them MORE money just so their Vet techs can misdiagnose the heck out of our dog.
Fed up and frustrated with going broke at that other vet and still not receiving one solid answer, we finally went to Colbert Animal Hospital. It was the best decision we ever made!!! Dr Andrews took one look at our sweet 11 year old Husky and knew it was cancer. Of course this was absolutely devastating news to us, but she was so kind and even hugged us while we were taking in the news (this was he fist time we ever met her too). She didn't ask us to spend hundreds of dollars on different tests to see what kind of cancer, and she didn't suggest surgery because of his age and he complications it could have brought. Instead, she took an holistic approach to his care and he was able to live 2 more fun-filled years under her care. We were so grateful for her and her staff during those 2 years. They are so compassionate.
We now live in Decatur and have not found a quality vet who even remotely compares to Dr Andrews and her staff. So we still drive our other Husky up to Colbert, 1.5 hours away. She is THAT GOOD!
I recommend her to ANYone looking for compassionate, affordable, quality care for their beloved pets. read more
