I really like this place and the people who work here. Dr.Rivers is a knowledgeable and caring veterinarian who has helped our 4-legged family members on numerous occasions, even after hours. It is my understanding he treats both small and large animals (ie.horses, cows). His staff are knowledgeable, cheerful,friendly and helpful...even to the extent of carrying big bags of dog food out to your car to assist you, the customer. And speaking of dog food, they sell prescribed dog and cat foods from their office. I need to get a special food for my dog and this particular food is pricey . Fortunately, Dr. Rivers does NOT overprice these foods. In comparison shopping, his prices were less than other vets and less than large on-line pet stores. Orchard Animal Hospital also offers a discount to seniors. Medications for pets can be filled at this clinic when prescribed by Dr Rivers. It saves a trip to a pharmacy and again, pricing is reasonable. This place is great...your pets will think so too.

I’ve been taking my dog to Dr. Rivers since 2008. He is very caring, explains everything, has reasonable rates and even came in after hours for an emergency following surgery. I’ve been very happy with the service received at Orchard.

Emily Koki

Didn't even go in. Receptionist was so rude on the phone. Obviously didn't like being asked questions. Told me she had to go to help a customer. I guess your only a customer if there in person. Very bad customer service.

Amazing doctors! Best service

James Schlaak

Took well care of my animal. Very rude receptionist. Double booked me, (unknowning to me) made a future appt., then Got bumped and had to leave. Argued with me that it was my mistake, and that I should have known better about policy that was changed. It is a shame, to give up a clinic that for the past 3 years plus took care of my dog, but wont tolerate rude customer servive especially when I was in the right. RUDE!! I won't go back!!

Kate Osborne

Very friendly and comfortable feeling. Everyone is very nice with our pets, and most animals are happy when they visit. Dr. Rivers Is the BEST!!

Charlotte Roberts

They couldn't help me

Alan Hutley

This place runs like a Swiss watch. All the employees get along, which immediately translates to customers getting great attention, and I mean every time. It's great to see and be the recipiant of such care. I sure wish this was the norm instead of the exception.

Aubree Rodewald

I have taken both of my dogs (Bear abd Bullet) here for a long time and couldn't ask for better care for my babies!

The best care in Dallas. Dr. Rivers is caring and compassionate.

Rick M.

Vet is awesome. My dogs are both rescues, and his gentle manner suits them well. Love that he knows what he is talking about, and doesn't encourage wasteful spending on ineffective treatments.

Laura Finney - Living Out Loud

Dr. Rivers is so kind and understanding. He does not rush through or talk over your head. His staff are incredibly friendly and helpful.

earl schroeder

Been going here for 20+ years. You won't find a better vet!

William Chrisman

I come at the first of every month to get revolution treatment for my 2 dogs. So easy and cheap and never any fleas. Our dogs are house dogs but use the yard to relieve themselves.

Stephen Slack

Very friendly staff. I needed to take my mother's dog in for her. I didn't know his history. They knew just what to do I got to take care of them or very efficient and professional. I Highly recommend.

RUTHLESS WOODS

To expensive

Jessica Patterson

I love this vet! Dr. Rivers is very caring and knowledgeable. The prices are affordable and alternatives are given when the cost gets high. They will do anything they can to accommodate you and get your animal in when needed. I only wish they took Care Credit.

Jerimiah Styles

Terribly unprofessional.

Heidi Noyes

They are great with your baby's

McKynzie Nelson

I've been going to this vet for 15 years and he genuinely cares about the animals. Not to mention good prices. I bring in my pets and for 6$ I get good quality flea treatments done then leave within minutes. My dog had an abscess in her neck from a mosquito bite or something from our hike and instead of having to pay for the overnight stay and expensive things he told me a remedy with a hot wet towel and it worked! I've gone to other animal hospitals in Dallas and they're good like but personally I think he's the best.

Debra Roberts

Meticulous, superior, gentle care from a vet and staff who love animals.

Rebekah Myer

All I can say is that I hope he NEVER retires! Couldn't find a better vet for skill OR personality anywhere--ever!!

Sherrie T

Very honey and honest

angel troub

Dr. Rivers is great! My dog liked him the second he met him and he was scared from having previous surgeries at vet clinics. He was so gentle and soft spoken with him, that it made him feels safe. I've never encountered any issues with Orchard animal clinic or than it may be hard to get an appointment due to so many clients. Great vet and reasonable prices!

Jeremiah Bratton

The best deal you can get on back of the neck flea medicine for your animals. You do have to bring them to the vet to apply but it's usually $6 per pet this way for a monthly application.

Alyssa Pollard

Always attentive staff. Usually in and out very quickly.

Sylvia Loganbill

Wonderful vet, reasonable price.

t markowski

Amazing staff, excellent customer service, affordable! Wish I would have found them sooner.

Bryan Goetz

Really friendly staff. Dr Rivers is awesome. Appointments are easy to get. Most of the time they will try and fit you in same day if needed. We bring all of our pets here. I have recommended them many times.

Jim Wolverton

Dr. Rivers is a very honest and caring vet who not only does a great job but he helps you save money, often to his own detriment. He explains all of your options clearly and doesn't play any games trying to force you into paying for services you don't need, such as, some vets will try to make you pay for a pet exam before they will sell you flea control, but not Orchard Animal Hospital. I've used them for over a decade and they've always done a great job. I feel my pets are safe with them and don't get stressed as much as they do with other vets. Plus it is centrally located, which is important, because my pets freak out when I take them for a drive. They're also fast with blood test results. They bend over backwards to fit me in and always seem to have an opening when my pets are really sick and need urgent care. They are happy to sell you their medications in stock, which are lower than other vets, or they will give you a prescription or fax it to a place where you can get it for less, such as an online discount pet med supplier. They are also very good about letting me know when it's time to give my pets their vaccines and such. If you want good service, low prices and help with savings, as well as prompt appointments and loving, tender care from an honest vet, this is a great choice. Since the original post, I've had to have a pet put down, which was very hard for me. My family's way, when I was a child, had always been to take dying pets out and shoot them. I couldn't do that. I had Dr. Rivers euthanize it for me. Though my heart still aches, years later, I remember what a loving, tender job he did, and how I was able to hold her paw and look into her eyes as she passed on.
