    Unfortunately, on 3/26/25, I had to choose end of life care for my 3 year old Bernadoodle Baxter. He was hit by a car and suffered significant damage to hips and legs. The staff at Leland was so warm and understanding. They made my pup so comfortable. The room designated for the transition featured candles and music. They made a very sad transactional event a moment to remember. I rescued him from a puppy mill. Leland was his first vet visit. They treated him for parasites and being under weight. Dr. Ray and I believe Emily were wonderful. I can't recommend them enough.

    Just moved here from Portland, Oregon July 16, 2022. Very happy with Leland team. Our Lhasa Apso is being taken care of. Thank you all.

    She was a bit anxious but Leland eased her anxiety

    I made the decision to switch to Leland and I'm so thankful I did! it's hard to change vets when you've been comfortable at one for a bit. However, my friend HIGHLY recommended Leland for my dogs and I'm so glad! Their compassion, professionalism, and honesty was so comforting. They were transparent and honest about cost and didn't try to upsell me with unnecessary treatments. I have 4 dogs and Leland just earned my business for all 4!

    My pup wasn't feeling well so I took him to Leland for a check up and they were able to identify and treat him right away. Thanks so much.

    Carreker and the vet assistant both knew details of what was going on - they even knew which injection had upset our puppy the day before.

    I absolutely love Dr. Cary and the entire Apex team! I've been bringing my five pets here for over…read more10 years, and I truly wouldn't go anywhere else. I've also recommended Apex to several friends over the years, and they always tell me how amazing their experience has been too. Dr. Cary takes the time to really get to know each pet as an individual. What works for one of my cats might not work for the others, and she always tailors her advice with that in mind. She's incredibly thoughtful, knowledgeable, and compassionate -- and she makes herself available via email, which has been so helpful when I've had questions or wanted to run something by her. She also really gets the financial side of things. She never pushes unnecessary services and often suggests effective OTC options when appropriate. She's even helped my fiancé and me come up with ways to save money while still giving our pets the best care possible. It really feels like she's on our team. Anytime I've had an issue, Jamie or Dr. Cary has resolved it quickly and kindly. And I always look forward to seeing Barbra -- she absolutely lights up the front desk with her warm hugs and sweet personality. She's truly one of the kindest people you'll ever meet. Apex feels like family. I trust them completely with the health and happiness of my fur babies, and I'm so grateful for all they do.

    I have never experienced a more unprofessional, uncaring, and dismissive veterinary interaction…read morethan I did at Apex Vet in Smyrna, Georgia recently which revealed a level of disregard for BOTH animals and customers that is truly alarming. We have been loyal customers at Apex since they opened several years ago. Our rescue dogs have been seen by multiple vets here without issue. I've actually recommended Apex Vet to friends and family in the Smyrna area. All was fine until this visit exposed how poorly this clinic handles urgent situations and established customers. It's clear after my interaction with the owner Jamie Cary (and from reading other yelp reviews he's responded to) that he is far more interested in exerting "his authority" rather than helping a pet in distress. One of our dogs suddenly began limping, with her paw severely swollen, warm, and painful to the touch. She was clearly distressed. I secured an appointment and even with car issues, managed to arrive only five minutes after the scheduled time. I called on the way to warn them I was coming and received no answer. Upon arriving, the front desk staff member--someone we had never seen before--told me she would "be right back," then disappeared into the back offices. When she returned several minutes later, she informed me that we could not be seen because the appointment time had passed. I asked whether there was a grace period, and she confirmed it was five minutes. At that point I explained that I had arrived at 4:05--within that grace period--and she had been gone the entire time I was waiting. Her response was that it "didn't matter." The message was rudely: you're late, leave. At no point did anyone: +look at my clearly distressed dog +ask what was wrong +offer a later appointment +provide a referral +or even express concern As I was trying to leave, the owner (Jamie Cary) came out and asked me into an exam room. I assumed he was trying to resolve the issue, but when I asked whether my dog could be seen, he said no. I explained what had happened at check-in and that I was only seeking urgent care for my injured dog. The way he spoke to me felt intentionally demeaning, condescending and his focus appeared to be on shutting down the conversation rather than providing care or other options. He told me that if I continued expressing frustration, I would have to leave, and then stated that he would involve Smyrna Police. Feeling unsafe at this point, I told him I did not want to be in the exam room with him alone as he clearly didn't care what I was saying and kept escalating the situation. His staff members were giggling in the back room as I could tell he had done this sort of thing before. We walked out untreated, ignored, and stunned that a veterinary clinic would show such indifference in the face of obvious pain. While I was waiting outside for my rideshare to arrive--with my dog in pain--he proceeded to call the Smyrna police and started to record me on his phone. There was no threat, no refusal to leave, no disruption beyond expressing dissatisfaction with being denied care. This was a startling escalation of a simple scheduling issue and, in my opinion, entirely unnecessary. It was clear the Smyrna Police officer who responded felt the same way. All they did was run my license and then I went on my way. Our pets deserve care, empathy, and urgency. We received none of that at Apex Vet Clinic. There are many veterinary practices that genuinely care about animals and their owners--Apex Vet Clinic is not one of them. I would strongly warn any pet owner to reconsider before choosing this clinic. Our pets deserve compassionate care, not bureaucratic indifference and hostility.

    Recently I had an experience with my dog who was having seizures. I brought her in hoping for…read moreurgency when what I assume was the receptionist noticed me crying, but the receptionist continued her phone call. Maybe that is protocol (first come, first serve), or maybe she did not notice me, but she was not the reason for me writing a review. I was brought to the back where I met Dr.Boyce. After explaining what happened, Dr.Boyce suggested two options for my dog; she stay for observation where she can be monitored and administered medicine, if needed again, or she come home with us and we administer the medicine ourselves. He gave us the room to determine what was best for my dog as another attendant brought her back with a catheter for monitoring, so I could see her. I admit I was not fully present due to realizing the severity of my dog, but I knew I wanted her to be around professionals who could help her better than I, if needed. When Dr.Boyce re-entered, I unknowingly and accidentally interrupted him by saying, "we'll let you monitor her," not realizing he was speaking while walking in. I assume the doctor only caught the end of my statement, because he acknowledged it with an "oh, okay" and continued speaking about the preventative medicine we would need to give her when I took her home for good that night. Dr.Boyce then took my dog, mentioning he was going to remove her catheter and left, but again, I was kind of out-of-it with the severity of my dog. By the time the next person entered the room, it was the attendant with my dog without a catheter and her 'instant' medicine. As she guided me to the front, I was confused and told the attendant that I believe there was a miscommunication, because I had told the doctor I wanted my dog to stay. Dr.Boyce was within earshot and spoke up saying "Oh we took out the catheter already, I thought you said you wanted to take her," as he ushered the attendant to take her back. No sorry or acknowledgment of the miscommunication which to me, confirmed the lack of bedside manner I had felt previously with his "oh, okay." Looking back, my annoyance was more so in the fact that nobody confirmed anything, when a simple "are you sure" would have clarified the miscommunication. As someone who has had her for over 15 years, I know that dogs can be expensive, and knowing I wanted to do everything within my financial power to help her get better, I was left in that moment wondering how much extra putting the catheter back in would be if they needed to. We came back around 2 hours later to pick her up. After learning that she had been ok from the attendant, we received the special 'instant' medicine to stop her seizures, but there were no further aftercare about what my dog could or couldn't do, where I was to get the preventative medicine, and especially no written instructions. I arrived home exhausted, and found myself unable to fully explain what do to next, or what to do if special circumstances were to arise. I placed my dog in her bed but was unaware if she was allowed to go to sleep? Was the room light too bright? I wished I didn't have doubts that could have been again, answered. My intention is not to leave this to ruin the reputation of a vet clinic that I'm sure had good intentions - as shown by the 5.0 scoring. It is more so to make aware of gaps that could hopefully be filled going forward by ensuring actions are made with 100% clarity, not leaving dog owners uncertain.

    My dog is not easy going when it comes to being examined, but Alaka and Dr. Rice go above and…read morebeyond to try to keep her calm & still, and do it with such kindness and patience.
