We had a hip excision done on our German Shepherd. 1st operation was not done properly so second operation had to be done (for free) and at that time a bone in her leg was cracked. She never really got too much better and 3 years later we ended up putting her to sleep, she was only 8 years old. If we had it to do over we would not have chosen this operation or maybe a different vet? |

I've been taking my pets to Dr. Jacobs for 10 years now and will continue to do so for many years to come. All of the Dr.s at NEAH are wonderfull. Some people complain of Dr. J's no nonsence approach, but I prefer the truth. No sugar coating, my animals are too impotant to me to have someone tiptoe around an important issue. He's the expert and that's what I pay him for. If I ever have any doubts about the opinions I recieve from a vet there I do my own reasearch and the end result has always been the same. There prices are very reasonable with a freindly and knowledgable staff. |

After being with this vet for many years I was very disappointed in the way I was treated by the front staff. After calling and making an appointment and arriving on time for that appointment I was informed that I didn't have one. I was told mine was in the morning at a time could have never made it to. Sick cat in tow I was told the vet could not see me and I was turned away. Maybe that decision should have been made by the vet herself, since when I actually got in to see a vet, somewhere else, I was told if left much longer my cat would have been much sicker.

These vets, two of them board-certified, were the worst nightmare of my life! They caused my poor companion's death within 3 months after my pet became their patient. Please read my pet's story. . .

These vets are greedy, unethical, incompetent, with no compassion for the animals and guardians!

Dr. Short has got to be the most incompetent vet I have ever seen. She misdiagnosed more than one of my cats more than once. Getting a second opinion saved the life of two of them but for another it was too late. I would question wheather or not she is even a licensed veterinarian. Regardless, even the worst vets are still called "doctor".
I would avoid this place at all costs. |

These vets are very non caring and inexperienced.
Several misdiagnosis led to the needless suffering and death of my baby.
I think the owner of the place is a sadist, he seemed to take please in causing pain to my cats.
Something is seriously wrong with this place.
RUN!! |

Kirk Underwood, or Doc as those of us who know him call him, had to notify the state and quarantine our boarding facility due to an outbreak of strangles. He has been treating many of the horses there including my own. Most of the horses have had normal symptoms from the strangles. However, my 23 year old horse decided to be different and had a very rare complication of the strangles and I know without a doubt, that Doc saved my horse's life when he performed an emergency tracheotomy. He and his staff have been nothing but supportive and understanding when I have panicky moments while caring for my horse. I will be forever grateful and appreciative for everything Doc did for my horse that I have had since he was born. |

He is a very unethical vet, he operated on ouy dogs back when surgery was not the answer. our dog was never able to walk after he did a myleogram on him, he injured his spine ot the point that our dog could not even bark.He left our dog laying on a cement floor from Monday till Thursday until he did the surgery, even tho he knew then that it would only make things worse. I did not sign or want a myleogram and I did not sign for the surgery, 43 days later after we tried to get him to stand and walk again we had to put him down. I also told the vet if there was more then one disc that he wasn't to do surgery, he did not even listen to me only did his own thing. Our dog walked into the Care Cente in Calgary Ab was treated very badly and ended up never walking again. He was only five and one half years old. I was never able to get the myleogram or the surgicial report to this day. We know that lots went wrong and are wondering why in Canada Vets don't have to be held responsible for what they do. Most of the staff and the two drs. we did meet were not very nice people, Dr. Connery states now that he told me of different treatments he could do, NOT TRUE, he only told me and my daugther that surgery was the only way for Tzar. This whole mess has left a big whole in my heart and the saddest thing is what he did to my big kool dog who would still be here if he just wasn't able to get away with doing his own thing and no one to question him.. Not fair and it has to be stopped, I need help with this one, need to know of other cases in AB with the Care Cente and the fifteen other Vet places they are with. The whole Vet program is very bad there, and also the staff, I would not recommend this place to anyone or the other Associate Vet Clinics in Calgary. Very Very Bad, and sad.

In Summerfield! They Lie, They sneak and they cover up their mistakes. My Siamese, My little girl, died a slow, miserable, lonely and totally unecessary death at their hands. She bit a couple of their techs (because she wasn't feeling well & they don't know how to properly handle) and they wanted to euthanize and chop off her head! When I refused to give the permission and opted for quarantine, she ALL OF A SUDDEN took a turn for the worse and was dead within hours. I wasn't even given the chance too see her. This is animal cruelty and abuse of the worst kind, because it was at the hands of a trusted professional!!! BEWARE AND RUN SCARED!!!!!! |

I was rushed by two large, snarling dogs in the waiting room at this vet. The receptionist responded by making pleasant conversation with the owner of the dogs (who bitched me out for yelling, "Leash your dogs!"). The vet heard the incident but chose not to respond.
I later asked if they had a leash policy for the waiting room. She shrugged and said, "no". I think it's time to find a vet that gives a rat's ass about the comfort and safety of their clients. |

Dr. Underwood is on call 24, 7 and is the vet. for many of the top boarding and show facilities in north west Atlanta. He has been our vet for over 10 years and though our boarders can choose their own vet 95% of them use Dr. Underwood. He seems to always be on call and he treats your horse as if it were his own child. Keep in mind that with these postings people are far more likely to take the time to rate someone if they had a bad experience than if they had a good one. Those who are disgruntled with him are only that way because he doesn't always tell you what you want to hear, but he does tell you the truth and tells you what's best for your horse. |

Great vets, both very helpful and my dog loves them! Which is good because he can be picky about people he likes/dislikes. My other dog also loves them!
My BC got fixed there and it was great! They were very nice and let me go get him/put him in the kennel. They also use a great program called snap so the neuter only cost 50 bucks!
It is a touch expensive but well well worth it!

Would like to add another great rating for Dr. Jim Rahn. My parents live in Eastman while I live 2 1/2 hours away. I have moved multiple times, and I have used vets all over the country. However, if there's any way that I can work it out to have my pets visit Dr. Rahn while we are visiting my parents, he is my first choice. He is caring, compassionate, and thoroughly knowledgeable - just the best. |

These people only want money. They not good vets at all. You should be with them to see what they do
because they charge money for work not done. Don't trust they with your animal, they lie and cheat us who took animals for them to check up.
This is a warning,.....you should be careful.....do.not trust ...them...I don't know why people go to Clearwater vets. we don't no more.
Watch your money on the bills. |

Not sure why it cost me $600 to spay a cat. I was quoted much less, there were no complications but lots of extras added on. I should have went to my old vet for$200. Don't board your dog here either, they only get two pee breaks a day.Its humid in the summer too. Don't board your cat unless you want it in a three foot cage all day. |

All these people here at Clearwater Vet. Services, in Sarnia, Ontario, want is your money.
They charge for stuff that they are not authorized to do, so WATCH OUT for Your bill amount.
They charge terribly too much and are not very nice
people to deal with.
They feel that they are above all and can do and say to you what they want and are sarcastic.
They will also get your name and say that you own them money and put a black mark on your credit rating.
We found this out and the person has never delt with them. Someone gave his name and they sent him a bill and he has Never used them for anything.
Just be very careful, with these greedy people! |

I love this hospital! The vet knows what he is doing. He diagnoses quickly and treats effectively. My little puppy had mites and he knew the difference between mites and allergies which many vets mistakenly diagnose. I reccommend him to anyone who loves their pet. The clinic is clean and the staff is super nice and attentive. I mean they even washed all of my puppies things for me!
