    I can't recommend this clinic enough. They are phenomenal…read more I first used them about two and a half weeks ago, when one of our rowdy Great Pyrenees came up three-legged. (Old timey or farm terms for an animal that has a hurt leg/paw and can't distribute weight on that limb.) We recently moved to the Coopers Creek area. We are retired professional horse breeders. Not the back yard type...which I respect ultimately...but, some country folks that spent 30 plus years breeding, maintaining a top notch small breeding facility. I spent many a day and night working with large animal vets....traveled with them on their trucks and scraped old paint from their clinics. We can deliver distocia foals, do ivs, suture and pretty much a lot of things not really familiar. Not chest thumping at all. Just a day in the life. We had exquisite small and large animal veterinary clinics in the Winder area. Theiy worked with us, unbelievably. They loved the fact that we could handle pretty much everything from routine vaccinations (large animals, not pets) to administration of antibiotics, IV fluids, delivering foals, etc.. When we retired and moved back to the mountains (I'm a dyed in the wool hillbilly that ventured off to the big city for my career in geology), our main concern was finding a vet clinic for our beloved doggos and cats. We sold our very successful horse breeding operation and farm and moved to our retirement home, back in my beloved mountains. I tried a clinic in Blairsville....not. good. All I was to them was a a replant with a checkbook. Blah, blah, blah. We had one of our Great Pyrenees (relocated farm dogs...now couch potato) come up lame. Long story short...he was a week overdue for his yearlies....a week. We were trying to spend the next month getting everyone on the same schedule. They refused to see him. Even though I said go ahead and get his mere week overdue full plate of shots done....just help him...he was in the front seat of my SUV, whimpering in obvious pain. Again...I take care of my animals...always have. Trying to sync up everyone's shots. It was an over pierced tech that refused him treatment. When I was arguing that my beloved pet needed treatment....the pierced thing saw the Chick-fil-A delivery car come in to the clinic with their f#%^=%%/ breakfast. She dismissed us immediately, I can only imagine to get a free biscuit from her employer. My head exploded. Hubby and I got on the phone and soon found Cohutta Animal Clinic. I made the trip down to Blue Ridge and the phenomenal staff at Cohutta, met me in the parking lot and within 30 minutes, Buckshot was diagnosed with an ouchy sprained wrist, treated and we were on our way home. Yup, they went ahead and vaccinated him....even though he was safely within the time frame. Fast forward until this past Friday morning. Buckshot is fine and terrorizing the local squirrels and field mice. But....another of our pack of three dogs....Angus the Yorkie....suddenly couldn't breathe. He was almost 13. I raced him to Cohutta Animal Clinic first thing Friday morning. He had a collapsing trachea. He had never shown any indication of that. He was a bigger, stout, healthy Yorkie until all of a sudden....he crashed and couldn't breathe. Dr. Orr met me in the parking lot immediately and raced him into critical care. Angus was fine one minute....then wasn't. Dr. Orr and her staff spent all day trying to revive him enough to get to a specialist for a trachea Stent implant. They never stopped trying to get him stabilized enough for emergency transport. It wasn't to be. Even with the entire staff working with him all day, in incredible devotion and professional knowledge, it was little Angus' time to cross the Rainbow Bridge. Angus was simply the best dog ever. And Dr. Orr and her staff did everything possible to save him and make his last hours as peaceful and comfortable as possible. I will NEVER forget their incredible compassion and kindness in one of the hardest times of our lives. God Bless Cohutta Animal Clinic. I have found my vet clinic.

    Brought my dog in for a spayed and belly button herniation repair. Left my number for them to…read morecontact ME with questions. 3 hours after drop off they called my husband and stated she had fleas and they gave her meds to get rid of them. At pickup I confronted them and said she didn't have fleas, you shouldn't have gave her anything and I wasn't paying for it. ($15 dollars) The owner proceeded to argue with me and said my husband authorize the meds, which was a lie. Then he said she had an infestation on her chin only. Not a flea anywhere else on the body. This is a10lb Yorkie, you would definitely see an infestation. I have 2 other dogs at home and we do NOT have any fleas. If one has them they all have them. After telling him (the owner) to get my dog I was finished discussing this he continued to harass me in the lobby. Very unprofessional and poor customer service. He might want to think about checking his EGO before he goes to work.

    My dog was in on March 17 th for her annual check up and dental cleaning. I saw no one I'd ever…read moreseen before, that was concerning but generally the staff was pleasant. Lab work showed a likely UTI and anemia. The anemia was not shared with me. My dog did well over all and almost $900 later she came home. The next several days were uneventful but on Sunday March 22 in early evening my dog became ill and showed signs of distress. A trip to Mountain Emergency Vet was in order. Upon exam and radiograph it was determined she had a ruptured tumor on her spleen and there was little to be done so my sweet precious Buttercup was euthanized I'm not suggesting CBVC did anything wrong but it's their behavior since that has shown their true mission which is the almighty dollar and lack of caring being their mission. The emergency vet notified CBVC early March 23 of Buttercups passing. I called later that morning. Now mind you my dog had her annual On the 17th March and needed no routine vet services for a year had she lived. On Saturday April 4th I received a text from CBVC saying my dog needed vet services. I was really distressed and called them and chewed them out. Done with their incompetence so I thought. Yesterday I got a postcard saying my dog which passed 3 weeks earlier needed an annual checkup. These people should never be allowed to be in business. They really don't care about your pet or you. Run like hell to another Vet as fast as you can go. My heart is broken at the loss of my sweet precious Buttercup and they're so cruel that every time I start getting into a better head space they hit me again. They are cruel and evil.

    Tammy and Nicole at the reception desk were wonderful. Marissa, the vet tech, was also very kind…read moreand capable. Doctor Deanna Hayes was very kind, did not rush through our visit, unexplained everything very thoroughly. The prices were surprisingly lower than we expected.

    Used to like their boarding facility until my dog got sick from all the unvaccinated rescue dogs…read morethey used to house in the same area. Then they shut their boarding down to make more money elsewhere. Thankfully my dog has not been sick often, however a couple of times she needed anal glands expressed and an X-ray. They refused to do either procedure without sedation. (!!!) My dog does not tolerate sedation well and was a zombie for 24 hours after their last sedation. Sedation should not be used for quick, simple procedures. I was a vet tech many years ago and I know you can either hold the dog or muzzle them for the things that take less than 2 minutes. Prices are way out of site and the last vet I saw just wanted to keep uncharging me for unnecessary tests that I refused. When I called to have her checked they said to bring her in and then upcharged me for an emergency visit. I questioned them about why since I called and requested a visit and they said I didn't have an appointment. Unbelievable. Won't be back.

    Zero stars if possible. We have 5+ years, 7 dogs and 1 cat with this hospital. $10,000+ spent and…read moremore donated toward their "rescue" services. I called veterinarian office (unable to locate license number on state registry - not sure if licensed). The receptionist answering the phone had trouble hearing or understanding my name, my animal's name and insisted I leave a message with her as no doctors were available. My message contained the following information: - We have previously had 3 dogs put to sleep with them. We understand that with some dogs we waited too long, and there is no knowing when we didn't wait long enough. I was concerned I was currently leaving my dog in pain and I told the receptionist, "I don't know what to do. I need more information." - One of our dogs, a 15 year old, had had a lot of issues in the past for which we came to see them. They did not run any serious diagnostics as we were told this would require scheduling ahead of time (we are rural). I called upset because despite the prescription food they prescribed in the past, she was still sick. - I requested a doctor call back or an appointment be scheduled, but I specified I wanted an ultrasound or other diagnostic to be scheduled because I didn't want the doctor to just look at the dog again. I was told that I would receive a call back shortly. Two hours later I was called and told that if I'm unhappy with how they do things, I can go find another veterinarian. Their callousness and uncaring nature, the unbelievable lack of disregard not only toward the dog but to the people involved is not even my complaint. They have left me with no recourse and no veterinarian in our rural area that can see a sick senior. No animal hospital can see the dog to care for her - they are all months out. Only emergency veterinarians are available for emergency services. The receptionist that called me would not tell me which doctor told her to tell me my dogs were no longer welcome. When I (upset, obviously) was LOUDLY telling the receptionist on the phone, through tears, about how callous they were, she began to yell at me. This complaint is in regards to the fact that no amount of money, no amount of history, no amount professional quality of care was enough to keep me and my dog out of the situation we currently face: at the end of her life, with no professional care. Just because I requested a diagnostic that was apparently recorded as "customer not happy". There are so many other things that could have been done - they could have called to clarify the message, they could have called to hear any concerns, they could have done absolutely anything other than telling me I was on my own. While my message did not contain any regret about prior visits and services, I certainly regret it now. Had I placed my trust in a better individual and practice I would not find myself in this situation. Certainly some businesses adopt a "cut and run" philosophy. A veterinarian should not be one.
