We took our sick senior dog to university to get an opinion about where she could be saved after she stopped eating. The vet was optimistic and willing to do a dental the same day as her teeth were awful, but they ran labs and she was just too sick and now looking at kidney failure. He said we could take her to a major hospital and maybe she could pull through and live a little longer, but we've been through a lot over the past year with her being in heart failure and we know she stayed with us longer than most dogs do who suffer heart failure. The vet was super solemn in giving my husband the bad news and he had a really positive experience despite the bad news that we had come to the end of the road with our most beloved dachshund. We will be taking our growing puppy here in the future like when she needs a spay. Please keep your dogs on heart worm medication. Our dachshund went to a rescue with heart worms and we fostered her through the treatment and then foster failed. She was the most amazing dog. Rescues pets are amazing animals.

My bill was $204. Once I get there, I am told she has yeast in her ears and to give her children's claritin for breathing due to trachea. Last night, Boots was breathing was labored, she whined all night and did not want to sleep. I contacted ER med vet and was advised to give her claritin and follow up with my Vet. Today, I call at 11a and stated the obvious. Do you want to bring her back for an exam (additional charge). No, i am calling for further recommendation as i was there Friday and the claritin is not working. I am told I would receive a call back. Around 345p, I receive no call and contact them again. First, Noone remembered me calling, hence I was told about the call back without alerting anyone. After calling for the second time, holding for 15 minutes, I am told that there is no record from the visit on Friday and I would need to come in and recharge for another exam.... Needless to say, its a hard NO! I don't not recommend due to no records, additional charges, lack of care and customer service.

You won't find another Vet Team in Mobile with more compassion, more knowledge, or more dedication. I wish I'd have found them years ago, but I'm grateful that I have them now.

One star could not do my dead dog justice, but that's my only option. My 14 year old dog Charlie,…read morehad been going here since he was born in the early 2010's. Years ago, he started having breathing issues and we started seeing Dr. Mary Edwards exclusively. He was put on a few medications, and we were fine... until his recent ACL injury, about a month ago. Charlie was a very food driven, active, bubbly dog. After Dr. Mary told me he had an ACL injury, I asked about an injection called Adequan, after doing light research the night before. She lit up and said that would be a great option, so they show me how to administer the medication, gave us some Galliprant, and sent me on my way. Two weeks ago, Charlie started vomiting and having diarrhea. We were trying to give it a few days just incase his stomach was upset. It continued, he began to lay in bed all day and refused food/water. Friday, we took him to a separate vet and they informed us that Charlie was in stage 4 kidney disease, and those two medications he was prescribed are things they can't have if he has kidney disease. This doctor didn't suggest or mention testing his blood before going on these medications. Also, I was never informed of any side effects, or anything to look out for if the medication wasn't right for him. This morning, we had to make the grueling decision to euthanize our sweet boy. His creatinine levels had reached 11 and at that point, he was suffering, in pain, and laboring to breathe. He was my bestfriend since I was in kindergarten, and now he is an angel in heaven. Please, read a few other reviews, as I wish I would've, and take your animal somewhere else.

Today we went for our dog to get her stitches out after having her spayed and her back dew claws…read moreremoved. However she had already taken them out of her legs herself at some point.... When we went to have the surgery 2 weeks ago, they ask that you drop off in morning and then you pick them up that afternoon. They offer bloodwork and pain medicine in addition to the price quoted on the phone that are optional. They give you a paper to fill out when you arrive so you can select what all you want to do for your pet. We opted to have bloodwork, medicine and her nails trimmed too. They call you during and or after surgery to keep you posted. We were relieved to hear she was doing great. They offered to remove her back dew claws because she had already injured them and I had meant to ask them about it, but forgot so I was very happy they called and asked. They were very efficient and professional. The entire staff worked as a team and you can tell they love animals. Overall they had the best pricing (even with the add-ons they offer) and everything went well.

They were ready for us when we arrived an hour later (drive took 1hr) and put us straight into an exam room. The vet tech's were incredible, as was the front staff and Dr. Gregory (?). They did an initial assessment, asked questions and gave us a best/worst case scenarios. They took Gus back twice - once for vitals and a second time for bloodwork. Luckily our dog is pretty agile so he came away with scrapes and bruises but it could have been much worse. You could tell they were exhausted as they had 2 very urgent cases, yet still cycled us into the rounds. I would recommend this facility and the staff. Yes, we waited. Our "emergency" was not the highest priority and we understood that from the onset. They did the best they could considering the resources and more urgent matters they had. We would return and we would recommend.

We ended up having to send our girl over the rainbow bridge and the staff was so nice and compassionate during one of the worst days of my life. They handled the situation so gracefully. Fast forward to this week, we received Chloe's remains and we even got a card from this location that was signed by the staff and had a paw print on a card from our Chloe. For someone that had never visited this location, they treated us like family and for that, I will be forever grateful

I've been waiting 4 months to write this review. In Dec., Village called and said I needed to be…read moreseen. I confirmed I needed to come in now and not May (1 year f/u) and the very nice lady at the front desk said "actually yes, I could wait until May." Great! Just 3-4 weeks later, I placed an order for meds to be delivered and the next business day my order was declined. When I noticed this, I called and the other front desk lady - an Extremely unpleasant woman - said I must be seen before I can get more heart meds for my dog. I referred to my call the month prior. The mean lady told me too bad, I must be seen by the new doctor. I was hours away out of town and still they would not fill the rx 1 more time (2weeks supply) without being seen. With no notice, Village cut off my dog's life-saving medication. I had to pack up and head back to Mobile so that I would not be without medication when I arrived back from vacation. What kind of company does that to someone with a terminally ill "baby" as they like to call pets. If that were my only unpleasant experience, I could get over it, but I got a new medication that front desk refused to help me with including ignoring my emails when I inquired about it. Village has treated me terribly in the past few months. The new female vet is young and nice and seems savvy enough, but you have to deal with the front desk the most and the office feels really dirty and old. The workers got together and painted the joint and it's really bad. But you're still paying top dollar for services just like if you pick a vet with a nice office. Since vowing to leave Village, I have taken my new puppy to Westside. It's a much cleaner, appealing office. And we took our sick, sweet girl to University Animal Hospital in a Hail Mary attempt to keep her alive longer from the heart failure that was taking her from us. I called University on a Monday and got in first thing Tues. morning. My husband highly recommends University as a small operation with great service and said we need to start taking our puppy there. I was impressed by University's quick appointment time and they will l do a same day dental! Unheard of. They also do light anesthesia options for dental cleanings but also offer full sedation. When my puppy needs to be spayed, I'll take her to University. And never go back to Village. Ever.

After speaking to the manager Kelly regarding the discrepancy between our original price and the overcharge, she threatened to delete our dogs vaccination records if we wanted any sort of refund. I have never been spoken too by a vet office the way Kelly spoke to me. We kindly requested a refund due to the fact that we were misinformed by her staff. It worries me that a person like this works in a space that cares for animals. In an animal hospital, many people need a warm, kind spirit to guide them through potentially difficult times. Kelly is very far from that. This was our first time coming and we certainly won't be back. I would fear leaving my animals here alone.

Since switching, we found out my sweet Shadow has diabetes and that's why he had lost 4lbs so quickly and then my sweet Mo who is an older kitty was diagnosed with kidney disease. Their staff was aggressive with treatment and diet. Shadow has now come off of insulin and is maintaining with diet alone and Mo's kidneys are awesome as he is intaking more fluids.

Two days ago, she was in the yard which she fell, yelping in pain. Yesterday, she was lethargic which - if you have an Aussie - you know is wildly atypical. I thought the paralysis had taken its toll and we would have to put her down. Kathy made our appointment. She was empathetic and very helpful over the phone. When we arrived, the receptionist and the vet tech were each super nice and very professional. Dr. Gilson examined Tinkerbelle thoroughly. He explained the utility of each diagnostic and treatment option he recommended, and he quoted us the price. He found that she had fairly extensive osteoarthritis and recommended treatment. Our story had a happy ending because we arrived fearing it was time to euthanize and discovered our dog's problem was treatable. It's also a happy ending because, had it turned out it was time to let our dog go, I feel confident they would have handled that outcome with skill and compassion. Every interaction was excellent. We've had dogs for over 30 years, and we've had a range of experiences with veterinarians over the years. Retired, we now split time between Colorado and Alabama.
