Abbott Road Animal Clinic

Abbott Road Animal Clinic

(20 reviews)

Dr. Chris Jones has been reported for substandard veterinary conduct to both, the Michigan…read moreVeterinary Medical Association, and the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs. I wish I had taken the warnings from other Google reviewers seriously. Unfortunately, I experienced the exact same incompetence, unprofessionalism, and disregard for both pets and their owners that so many have described in the reviews over the years. Carrie Westphal was right: they nickel-and-dime pet owners with unnecessary, overpriced appointments and procedures. Lain's tragedy of a missed heart murmur diagnosis echoes my own experience with their careless medical oversight. Like Zainab, I've been treated with open hostility for asking basic questions. Carsten Walker's account of being blamed for the clinic's own surgical mistakes shows the same refusal to admit error that I encountered. Shauna Soergel's description of staff manhandling anxious pets is not an exaggeration; I've watched them escalate a stressed animal rather than calm it. Cristi's story about Dr. Jones' arrogance? 110% accurate. He is a liability. These are not isolated incidents; they are a consistent pattern of negligence and disrespect toward clients and their pets. My own breaking point came after multiple visits with Dr. Jones. In a 2023 visit, he ignored my explicit instructions and gave my Klee Kai unnecessary vaccines that were not due until the following year. My own records (provided by our previous family vet) show my Morkie was due for rabies 24-Jan-2023, while my Klee Kai was due 13-Feb-2024. Dr. Jones' excuse was "we usually just do both dogs at the same time." This is a textbook violation of informed consent and client autonomy. My final visit was also with Dr. Jones, after I was told my Klee Kai had IVDD by MSU's ER. I scheduled this appointment for long-term care planning. Instead, Dr. Jones simply regurgitated the MSU report back to me nearly verbatim, with awkward silences where paragraphs/thoughts ended in the MSU report. In those awkward silences I thought to myself, "is this a joke?" He came and went from the room multiple times (3+) to check and re-check the MSU reports again and again, he even offered to print them out for me; I was already given copies by MSU. "Dr." Jones never answered my direct questions about preventing disease progression. When I finally asked, "do you even know what IVDD is?" it was clear he had nothing to offer so I ended the appointment. The staff behavior is no better. One assistant ignored me upon arrival, humming and staring at her computer until she decided to check me in. She then stood behind the counter while telling me to weigh my dogs (something every other vet tech I've ever dealt with has done themselves). She snapped at me when I asked, "Isn't that your job?" emphasis was given on "job" not "your". With a raised voice and aggression in her body language, she shouted at me "do not tell me what to do". This not only shows how systemic the issues at this animal clinic are, but it shows the managements total disregard for professionalism and customer-directed incivility. On my last visit, when I refused to pay for a pointless appointment that provided no medical value, the assistant and office manager tried to flag me down in the parking lot, prescription in hand, insisting I "WILL pay." I told them to call the police, twice, because I was not going to be paying them for services I did not receive. Overall, this clinic has: A) a pattern of overcharging and pushing unnecessary procedures and vaccines, and in my experience: without consent. B) Failure to diagnose or discuss serious conditions until it's too late. C) Rude, condescending, and aggressive staff, both in person and over the phone. D) Improper animal handling that can traumatize anxious pets. E) No accountability when they make mistakes. If you care about your pet's health, safety, and emotional well-being and your own sanity: go ANYWHERE else.

I have used Abbott Road Animal Clinic for over 50 years. The only reason I don't live near them…read moreanymore and the vet I use is down my street. However, they have attended to: Gomer, Thor, Texie, Sadie, Gulliver, Muffin, Oliver, Little Dorrit (all dogs); and cats Mr. B, Mishin, Duncan, Hitchie, Alexey. I've also had them taken care of when we went away. I loved every vet and vet tech there.
