Reviews of Brown Animal Hospital (Veterinarian)

Tonja Rill

Went in for a second opinion on my 11 month old boxer. We were there for 2 1/2 hrs trying to figure out what was causing my puppy to lose weight rapidly and her being lethargic. Bloodwork was done on the spot, and an X-ray. We received devastating news and was referred to a specialist the next day. Unfortunately the news didn’t get any better but I’m so thankful for the love and support from the office that I’ll be transferring my other puppy to their care.

This office is absolutely horrible!!! Most of the staff is rude, on the phone and in person and Dr.Brown is the WORST! She need's to go back to school and learn how to be a real vet or just how to move along with the times. She is so out dated with how she practices and so is her office! I honestly do not know how anyone can bring their pet to her and trust them in her care. Oh and not to mention the office manager is a loser! He is rude to ALL of his staff in front of clients and to the clients themselves!!! This places needs to just shut it's doors before someone or someone's pet gets hurt!!! I pray no one else goes here!

When my rott/lab mix, Kleatus, was ill they tried all they could to help him, but when his health came to the point of having to have him put to sleep, they were very compassionate & caring. I have also taken my cat, Ophelia, there. They were very good with her & even she liked being there. I will continue to take my pets here.

Worst experience ever at a vet. Let me explain why -- I took my working line GSD in to talk about doing titers and to talk about options with heartwork/tick medication protocols. The visit started off OK, we chatted about the topics I wanted to discuss. She was sort of indifferent to what I was saying. Offered some feedback, which was what I was looking for, but ultimately said, "do whatever you want." OK? Thanks for the advice? Now to the part that resulted in my poor review. I have a male GSD who is part of a line of GSDs that are bred to be dominant. We chose this because we're doing protection training with him and that behavior is what he's good at. He's 1.5 years old, he's still learning, and he's still uncertain in situations where he's uncomfortable. Could I have done more to de-stress him? Yes and I will own up to that part. That was my mistake. Back to the vet - after entering the office, she approached him 'creepily', meaning she walked slowly and awkwardly toward him. He growled and showed his teeth. She said, "will he need muzzled?" I said I didn't know because we hadn't run into this last year at the vet. I muzzled him anyways, she proceeded to listen to his heart/lungs and he wouldn't stop growling. So she said to me - "I've had about enough of this and I don't have to take it. You can find another vet." Walked out, got the shots to give him, and promptly told me how I'm not welcome back because has that "look in his eye." Of course by now, I'm angry and upset because this vet is rudely telling me to get out and don't come back. I would have expected to have a conversation about how we could make this relationship work (ideas from her would have been better than, get out of my office), things I could to do ease him and if all else fails, options she could take to make blood drawing easier (part of the heartworm protocol). But no, I got none of that and all of the disrespect. Needless to say, I'm completely appalled at her behavior. She's a VET. She will encounter animals who've been abused, neglected, etc. who have behavior problems. She will encounter other working line dogs who are at all different stages of training. I have no problem owning up to what I did wrong and what I could do next visit to make it better. But that convo didn't happen. If she's not into working with anything other than a lazy hamster, she needs to put that on her website. And in her bio. Because I was mislead into thinking I had found a great vet that could help me chose the best course of treatment for my dog. Buyer beware -- if you have an animal that even so much as "looks" at her wrong, you'll be kicked out. Rudely. Unprofessionally. And worst of all, the staff thinks it's funny. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Dr Brown and her staff were wonderful in our time of sadness. We took our dog Pepper to her after she became ill and could not walk anymore. Sorry to say, that after a few days of unsuccessful treatment, we made the hard choice and returned to Dr Brown. They were supportive to us and made Pepper's last few moments on earth, comfortable surrounded by "family" and people who loved her. Thank you Dr Brown and to your staff. Mark

Not friendly at all!

Wife got a brother sister combo of kittens years ago, one got sick soon after we got them, not even a few weeks old. They thought it was rabies despite her not showing rabies symptoms and wanted to put her down to test. They tried scare tactics with us saying we'd die and possibly our dog as well if we didn't put her down, and tried to prevent us from leaving. The visit cost us over $100. We took her to another Vet(clearview animal hospital) and they properly diagnosed her, and our visit cost about $40. Nearly 5 years later she's still alive and healthy. Never again will I go here and I advise anyone I know not to. They didn't even consider any other options. I can't even imagine the number of people who've listened to them over the years and put an animal down for no reason.

Were here anytime we have questions, these are great people.

Samantha Reese

Kandy Adams

I took my cat to be euthanized he was 7.4 kbs and was charged $118.00 I was astonished A friend had to euthanize her at a few days later and went to another animal and was changed $20 I took him with me to be cremated and everyone I talk to can’t believe what I was charged Never again

Jubal Becker

Took my boxer there for treatment and we had excellent service! The vet sat on the floor and left my dog give him kisses as he talked about what was wrong. Very down to earth and easy to talk to.

Deb Sheridan

Dr.Brown is the best but getting to expensive to take your animals.

Erica LeFevre

Staff was friendly, but way too expensive for the average family. This is the only vet that could see my kitten on short notice because he was sick. I’ve never paid that much with any other animal. I’d recommend West Manheim Animal Hospital or Paws.
