We ended up switching vets in April after an unrelated, yet also extremely negative, experience at Black Creek. Upon my GSD's first exam at the new vet on August 10, we had to schedule oral surgery. On August 18, THE NEW VET HAD TO EXTRACT 15 TEETH due to the level of decay, lesions, and bone loss that Dr. Hamblin COMPLETELY missed. I literally cried on the phone post-surgery with the new vet, as I could not comprehend how that level of tooth decay was missed in not only ONE , but TWO yearly "well checks", by Dr. Hamblin. Save yourself the heartache and do not confuse a pleasant bedside manner with a vet so egregious that she overlooked a condition this significant entirely. TWICE.

When I said I literally had no vehicle to do that with because my car broke down when I was literally en route to do so, she said "I don't care. Take an Uber." WOW. Just WOW. Unprofessional. Cruel. Nasty. If this is the representative this veterinarian has chosen to be the first contact for her practice, this tells me EVERYTHING I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT HER.

They will not accept any call in or fax prescriptions from providers like Chewy. The only way to get a prescription filled outside of their office is for the pet owner to snail mail in their authorization form to the medication provider. I believe that Its very clear this is a tactic to manipulate pet owners into purchasing medication through them. it would be of great service to all pet owners if VCA accepted phone medication authorization request from medication providers. Mail in authorization is a waste of money (postage, envelope), time, and runs the risk of the form being lost in the mail. The stress imposed upon pet owners to go through this process is uncalled for, and preventable. This level of burden placed upon pet owners is a bad look for VCA.

I called this morning to make an appointment and the woman who answered was extremely unprofessional.The very first greeting was harsh and rude, and when I asked her to clarify her question due to a bad phone connection, she spoke aggressively and made her annoyance known.

The receptionist was friendly, attentive and thorough while explaining the new regulations. I am extremely happy with the care my animals have received through North Country but will now be driving the extra miles to Pulaski as it is not worth the discomfort dealing with the front desk at the Oswego location.

It was discovered that my 12 year old cat Pippin had a belly full of cancer. They did everything they could to prop him up to try to give me a few more days with him. When it came time to say good bye, as difficult as the entire process was, they treated it as a very solemn occasion, ushering us into a room as soon as we entered the door. They're on point when it comes to wellness as well. Staff are knowledgeable (I was there and heard one on the phone with an owner whose dog went into heat for the 1st time and needed to be talked off the ledge) and compassionate. I don't expect to be a pet owner for a number of years, but thank you, Dr. Alina, for being SO kind and gracious to Pippin as well as myself. I'm happy for you that you're moving on. This practice, very fortunately, has other amazing vets but you WILL be missed.

Their prices are reasonable, especially for vet care which seems to be ridiculously expensive these days, and they have helped us make decisions that have both saved us money & time when it came to our dogs care.

All services have been expected so far - prices are not nearly as costly as surrounding quotes I've gotten either!

We have a kitty with irritable bowel syndrome who suffers nausea, vomiting and loses her appetite…read moreand stops eating. She has small kidney stones as well. She is sensitive to prescription vet diets but will tolerate a non-prescription urinary tract diet we give her: when she can eat. Our family brought her to several vets who made various efforts to help her, such as a prescription stomach medicine that helps with nausea and stimulates appetite, to no avail. Because, our fur-baby is also sensitive to certain traditional meds and methods. Dr. Cortes immediately pinpointed what Jemima needed, a series of injections to be repeated periodically as needed. Her appetite is terrific afterward, and it has lasted sometimes for 4 months. In addition: this is a human being who loves animals. Animals are his life. He lives, breathes and interacts with them as though they were his own. They are. His knowledge is matched with his keen instincts and skilled decision-making. I highly recommend him, yes, even to people who may have to travel some extra miles to get to him. Well worth the effort.
