I Have been taking my animals here for decades and refer anyone who is looking for a vet in the south that this is the place. Cost is great and the vets are amazing! They don't go "looking for issues", listen to you and will spend all the time you need answering questions or just chatting. My animals treated better than humans do in our health care. So happy!

Highly recommend Dr. Carlos Rodriguez!! My kitty is a big, affectionate lump. Usually. But he is terrified at the vet and has been designated a dangerous animal by other vets. Dr. Rodriguez approached my kitty slowly, calmly, and with great gentleness. I am so grateful that a vet visit need not be traumatic for all involved. Dr. Rodriguez was also really wonderful with my other cat. He called me after hours with lab results and was very knowledgeable and professional. Also Stella at the front desk is awesome! Highly recommend this clinic. Their care is exceptional and I know they put the well-being of the animals first.

The staff are wonderful and knowledgeable, and I find the prices reasonable compared to other vets I've been too. My little guy has been seen by Dr. Jones and Dr. Edwards, they are both great and treat my senior pup with amazing care. Highly recommend!

Really nice people and vets! I brought my pregnant dog and all she really needed was an X-ray. Next thing I know $400. Oh well, I need to be careful next time.

Both myself and a friend have used this vet recently and also in the past. I had taken my 14 year old cat there after noticing a bleeding spot on her stomach. I first saw Dr. Carlos Rodriguez and he had examed her and indicated "it was not good" that she had 1 large Tumor on her stomach and 2 smaller ones; also the area was infected. When I asked he thought it was cancer he said it probably was because of the number of masses, and he could give her a antibiotic shot. I agreed right away and he then told me that "there was nothing else he could do" & told me to bring her back in after 10 days and I was to put a plastic cone over her head to avoid her licking the area. Then they would look at doing surgery to remove the tumors and spend them in for testing; to see if in fact it was cancer. I did as he instructed and she had stopped eating about 2 days before bringing her back in on Saturday afternoon. Her breathing had also changed and she wasn't acting like her normal affectionate self. I saw another lady Dr. This time and she recommended a chest X-ray because of her breathing. I agreed and found out she had fluid in her lungs which was causing her breathing difficulties. She had also said it looked like the cancer had moved into her lungs which was causing the fluid. She then directed that I take her to the animal emergency clinic or I should put her down that same day. I was completely devastated, as she was my baby and it was a lot to take in that moment. I was crying and wanted to take her home until Monday and have a bit more time with her & think about what I should do. The female Dr. was pushing me to put her down that same day and not to wait. Telling me "she had no quality of life and she was suffering." Not really knowing what to do I agreed to have her put to sleep then, as I loved her very much and didn't want to see her suffer or in pain. Looking back I should have followed my first reaction and bought her home and consulted another second opinion. Also that first male Dr. should have advised & directed me to take immediate steps to diagnose; if in fact if she had cancer or not. Within that 10 days it had spread into her lungs :( I had also talked to the manager of the vet clinic that following Monday and indicated my concerns. She mentioned that she would have to follow his notes, that he had written; saying that he had recommended more tests that same day. This is fraud and he is falsely fabricating the actual facts of that day. I'm not happy that they have this Dr. & another Dr. Pushing clients into putting their pets down. My other friend who had also taken his cat there had another bad experience with this Dr. Rodriguez. Putting your pets down is a life changing and major decision. From my experience take a day or 2 or get a second opinion. There are your babies, once they are gone, your whole world changes. I no longer trust this vet, and will be bring my other cat to another vet for his medical health needs.
