Love this vet hospital

Sarah Clift

Love this animal hospital! My dog was very ill and they did everything they could for him. They called us and updated us every 1-2 hours when we weren't there. He wasn't eating at all and wasn't expected to make it. That's when the vet gave him ham from his ham sandwich from his lunch that day! He went out of his way to heal him. My dog was two at the time and now he's six years old happy and healthy!

Great doctors and staff that give the best care ❤️

Wendy Getz

Front office workers and assistants are great!!!

Hooves, paws, and claws

I tried calling multiple times and the line was busy, when I finally got through to someone the individual was very rude. Their prices may be low but their decency is too.

Susan Mercer

Love Dr. Dodson and his staff!! Our family has been going to Gettysburg Animal Hospital for the last 10 years to have our various animals taken care of. We have been seen by each of the doctors that work there and all of them are FANTASTIC! The staff is efficient, the wait is never too long and my animals feel comfortable and safe there. We are always in the room when they treat our animals and even if they have to be taken in the back it is only briefly. All of the Doctors are very good about explaining what is happening and what we as owners can do to help our animals. I always recommend the Gettysburg Animal Hospital if anyone is looking for a vet.

Beverly Greene

Best animal hospital

tina delph

Karl Hindle

Outstanding veterinarian care and we highly recommend Dr Dodson and staff.

Amber Bailey

Great place takes payments with checks left.

Ruth Gold

Great Veterinarian, and staff. All put everything they have into taking care of my little furbabies! Blessed to have them!

Melissa Stull

Dr. Dodson can be a little abrasive with how he delivers potential bad news to pet owners, but he works hard to save my dog every time we go in with an emergency and there have been several! Last week I took my Boston Terrier (Bree) in who had been seizing and was near death. Dodson didn't skip a beat. He whisked her away and worked to save her life while we waited in a room close to where he was working on her. We could hear almost everything and he and his staff were AMAZING saving her life! The aftercare in the days following her seizure was also wonderful. I've worked with Dr. Dodson long enough to know that if you truly love and care for your animal he has the upmost respect for you, but if he detects neglect from pet owners he acts differently, however, despite his feelings toward pet owners he will give your pet the best care possible. If you're lucky enough to have a conversation with Dr. Dodson you will see how evident his love for animals is, but if you're a dead beat pet owner whose easily offended, I suggest you take your pets here for care and suck up comments from the doctor that you probably need to hear! In an emergency situation I only want Dr. Dodson caring for my Boston's, but thats just my personal preference. The ENTIRE staff is great!!! They also started taking credit and debits cards, as well as payment plans, which makes paying the bill much easier. Thank you!!!

Robin Golden

The best animal hospital. They are very friendly and understanding. I highly recommend them.

Mary Criollo

Good veterinary staffing

D Thomas

Saundra Sheppard

Dr. Dodson is wonderful. Staff is efficient and friendly. Excellent vet!

Kimberly Miller

This is the only place that I will take my dog. Keep in mind she is like my child. She also gets treated like my children did which is very well. Dr. Dodson who owns this practice can do miracles.

Zeke Phillips

Been going to them for nearly 3 decades. Join up with this awesome team.

Jen Grant

You couldn't ask for a more amazing place to take your furbabies!! We have been going here for years and they never disappoint. The staff and techs are such incredible and loving people with your pets..you definitely feel comfortable leaving them with your babies. We had recently lost a sweet boy and they were so wonderful and compassionate with him and making sure we were ok with the loss..we will never take our pets anywhere else

Gwenda Rotz

Best vet's around

Jonathan Picazo

Very friendly staff here, and the place is often filled with cute animals. Unless you get there early in the morning, though, the wait is usually quite long.

Peter Lezinsky

Worst experience ever. If your trying to call them, expect a busy signal most of the time and then it just hangs up on you. All i wanted to do was talk to the vet the day my dog was dying. After 3 phone calls to the vet they finally told us to bring her in and they fit her in the schedule. When we got their, we sat on the floor with her for 25 minutes until I HAD TO GO UP TO THE DESK CRYING MY EYES OUT and ask when she was going to be seen. Finally, they looked and saw my dog laying on the floor and then brought it to someones attention to take us back. They knew our situation. They saw us sitting their with her as they called other pets back for their appointments. One of the employees even helped bring our dog into the building from the car because she couldn't even walk...We were told that when it was time to put her down that they would fit us in the schedule, which they finally did, and that we wouldn't have to wait in the waiting room while our dog suffers. which was not the case. I am beyond furious with this animal hospital and advise anyone that has a pet that is like family, to go somewhere else.

Arynne Moody

My regular vet suggested my dog see a cardiologist for his murmur. $500 or more just to walk into the door of a vet cardiologist's office. I love my boy but am also still paying student loans along with all other bills. Dr. Dodson has seen many cardiology issues and was referred to me by a staff member in the office. He was wonderful!!! I have answers and medicines and hopefully my boy will continue to live many more years. And the bill did not break the bank. Would absolutely recommend Dr. Dodson and his office!!!!

Rachel Hopper

I absolutely love this vet hospital! My 1st visit was back in 2011 when we had just moved to the area - I had just gotten Ming (pug mix) & she was having terrible seizures quite frequently. Dr. Dodson was wonderful - he and the fantastic staff saved my dogs life and she's now seizure free! So needless to say I bring all of our animals here now and ever since. They always make doctors available to answer concerns via phone and countless other wonderful gestures

Kendra Brown

Best vet in Adams county. Doesn't matter if you have an emergency or just routine care. They are caring,compassionate, and effective. They are also reasonable price wise.

Melanie Spence

I have taken 4 different dogs to the Gettysburg animal hospital and I’m continuously impressed by the care I’ve received by all staff. They answer questions and explain things quite thoroughly. Most recently my new pup had fleas and they checked to make sure they were gone. Also, they called me the next day after a fecal sample revealed my puppy had roundworms. They are prompt when handling these types of situations, and for that I’m grateful. I’d highly recommend the vets and technicians at this facility.

Melanie

I Love everyone at this place! I feel good knowing my babes are safe and in great hands here. I've been going to the Gettysburg animal hospital for 36 years!

Kait Toomey

Lowest office visit fee in history. Vets are awesome. They care about taking care of your pet and they make it affordable to do so. Office visit, medication, and both dogs naa trimmed for LITERALLY $47.

Neil Samuels

Great with animals and low prices

Nicole Eberhart

Dr Dodson and the other vets really care about our pets. I will always take my animals here.

Dagmar Mracna

I like the staff very much but for 17 years that I owe my dog and has been going there they can never find her record and I asked for front line and they gave it to me for a cat when I never had a cat or own a cat I asked them I never new that you could turn my dog into a cat what magic did you use no one laughed and they tried to charge me 4 bucks extra for there mistake

KATHLEEN O'Dell

Not happy, my poor cat was given several different antibiotics because they didn't know what was causing her fever. When I took her home after 3 days I was instructed to return for five more for daily injections. She escaped and hid from me for a day and a half,(traumatized I suppose from being stuck in a cage for 3 days alone in a small room,) however when I found her she finally started to drink and nibble a little food and started purring again, so I took her right back in to get her shot the following day. After waiting an hour and a half past my appt. Finally one of the doctors rushed in, rammed a thermometer up her butt, and said her fever was down. I told her I was here to get the injections I was told she needed. Doctor scanned her card, left room, came back and gave her shot, then glanced over a card on table and said,"oh, I gave her the wrong shot, she already had this one" I asked if she would OD or something, and was told not to worry, it wasn't strong, shes ok, just moniter her. Then she added, "Theres no charge for today since she already got this one." I asked again if she would be alright and was assured she was fine. I left confused but happy my cat was going to live. Needless to say, she went downhill after that, back to being totally lethargic, barely eating and drinking. The mistaken drug was Covenia, a drug that is supposed to be administered after TWO MONTHS, not 5 days, and is listed for skin infections, which my cat DID NOT HAVE. Now I am taking her elsewhere to see if they damaged her kidneys or liver and to have her monitered by a vet who isn't so overbooked that they don't pay attention to what they are doing. I know she is only a cat, but she's my baby and I will never go back here again!

Brenda Liu

Great caring doctors. Busy practice

rach mill

Dr. Kristin Kolibas is an extraordinary veterinarian at The Gettysburg Animal Hospital! She is experienced and knowledgeable, as well as very caring! I will definitely be bringing my dog specifically to her, and highly recommending her to others! Thank you SO much for your excellent care Dr. Kristin Kolibas!

Hayley Wert

The best vet ever! They saved my cat, and they did it for a fraction of the price it would have been anywhere else. Gettysburg Animal Hospital saves lives by making it affordable for people who love their animals, but just don't have 2,500 dollars to spend on a surprise surgery, to get the care they need. Not only are emergencies and critical problems cheaper here, the yearly exams and vaccinations are also much lower. A lot of people just won't get the medical attention their pet needs if it is too expensive, which is why I tell everybody about this place. They make it possible for animals to live a happier, healthier life.

Tracy Anderson

Not happy. Amputated my cats claw. Never called to my ask permission. Came in With a nail bed infection. Could have gave antibiotics. Chose to send a outdoor cat home with a Huge collar and no pill explunger. Cat could not even reach his food or water with this collar. Okay, and how about can cat go in paper liter? No. Outside cat! Ten days. Really. How can you treat humanly a cat that can't eat or clean himself with this rediculous collar . So, I let them keep him over weekend. They tried to send him home again with this collar. Nottt!!!! Be your pets advocate!

John DiClementi

Great Vets and staff is friendly as well. The prices are reasonable compared to other vets.

Corey Barnard

They took great care of my loved ones

Nikki BonBon

Better vet then rossmoyne

Todd Myers

Very nice, caring people and good prices

Tina White

Kindest people, not outrageously priced.

Liz

We have taken our animals here for years now. Dr. Dodson did an amazing job on our cat Twiggy when she fractured her femur in multiple places. He had to put a rod in and wire it together. She was not only an older cat but had diabetes as well so it was quite challenging. She had a couple of ups and downs but is doing fine now.

Carla Reeder

Long wait but great services

Charmagne Poteet

Wanted to thank the staff at Gettysburg Animal Hospital for the carrying, compassionate and thoughtful way Cookie and we as a family, were treated at such a heart breaking time. Dr Myra is the most knowledgeable, loving and compassionate Vet I have ever met. Dr Myra not only treated and cared for my baby but was considerate and loving to my family. She is a true asset to our community.

Chris Cassner

High quality care for a reasonable fee. I take all of my dogs to this hospital. I also take foster rescue dogs here, because the staff is so dedicated and caring. The doctors are great, and have never let me down. This is what you want when looking for a veterinarian! Here are photos of some of the rescue dogs that have taken to be vetted at this hospital. Great group of professionals, can't praise them enough.

Todd McCauslin

Very reasonable vet services and nail trimming for Adams County area.

Stephanie Baum - president

Very affordable!

Jenny McClintock

We have been taking our pets to GAH for many years. They staff is wonderful and the care is very good. Also, their prices are very reasonable. We especially love Dr. Dodson. He is great! The only issue I have is with their phone system. They seem to have no answering service and they have few phone lines. So, the number I get a busy signal about 75% of the time. You have to keep re-dialing to get through. Not great for emergencies.

Lisa M

Horrible place.

Ken VanPelt

Caring and compassionate staff. Our cat had a very difficult to diagnose condition. Dr. Nelson took the time to try to figure out what the problem was and come up with a course of action. We're very happy to report that our cat is doing so much better now.

Daniel Neumann

We've been taking our pets there for years and they are just the best in the area. Informative and fair.

Craig Dresser

A caring place for animals. The doctors are great and the entire staff is kind and compassionate.

Robin Coleman

I took my sick puppy here and the staff went out of their way to help him and assure me that everything possible would be done to help him.

Daniel Keck

Treats our pets like family.

Darlyn Pollard

My her baby, who is 12 years old needed surgery. The vet and assistance there took wonderful care of her. She is on her way to recovery. They were very thorough and giving after care information. They've been my vet since she was a puppy. I don't think I would go anywhere else unless I had no other choice.

Derick Thorn

these people are crooked, they tell me i can come get my dogs flea meds then once i drive the whole way there they tell me they cant help me cause im not a paying client and make up a bunch of crap about it needing to be prescribed when you can buy the stuff over the internet and they just wanted more money because they are desperate , do not take your pets there if you care about them these losers are just about the money and didnt give a crap about my dogs, i wouldnt recommend them to an enemy

Ashley G

Gettysburg has a wonderful and knowledgeable staff. Pricing can't be beat.

Cheryll Lovegren

Awesome and cheap

Kas Woerner

Highly recommend

Becky Armstrong

Treated my dog great, friendly staff

Kevin Migas

I have been using the services of The Gettysburg Animal Hospital for over 10 years and feel the service that they provide is great. The staff are very generous and take the time to explain medications as well as procedures. They now accept credit cards to make it easier with whole billing process when the health of my pet is the foremost thing on my mind. I feel confident going to GAH that my dogs are receiving the best care without the absorptive pricing.

Brecca Faust

Good care. Stable staff. Our dogs and cats don't mind coming here.

ToddStacey Blessed

Professional service by people that care. Competitive prices that cannot be beat.

Shena Andrew

The best Vets and staff!

Matt DeGennaro

Always a easy experience, and very fairly priced.

Bob Rosario

Reasonable cost for quality care.

Raelyn Cook

I have been taking my pets here for over 10 years and both my family and my animals (unless it's shot day, HaHa) highly recommend it! Some of the Veterinarians have a better bedside manner than others, but I have never left the office unsatisfied or with any problems unresolved. The receptionists as well as the staff are amazing and go above and beyond to accommodate any needs you have. They are extremely compassionate to both the owner and their pets. You can truly sense that this office is full of animal lovers who enjoy their job and taking their time getting to know their pet parents and their furry family members on a personal, genuinely loving level. I sincerely cannot say enough positive things about this facility!

Amy Martin

Great staff. Always willing to help

Jennifer Smith

I honestly am so grateful for the people at Gettysburg Animal Hospital. While no place is perfect, they know how crazy and hectic life can be. I have always felt like my animals and their care has been handle in a caring and personal way. My fur babies are family and all the staff treat them just as special!

Lori Fry

Great place staff are very nice

Gary Dennis

Friendy staff .

Jeanette Fetters

Had our first appointment with our new pup. There was a power outage problem and the staff and doctors continued to take appointments and provide great care. I am so happy we decided to take our little Girl there for her first well visit and will be continuing with the office

theresa perrell

New puppy and they was great with him

katie wyatt

If i could I'd give no stars. This place killed our dog. She was only 1. They didn't do the proper testing and meds and she died.... We ended up having to take her to another vet (our new vet) where she had to be put down. Screw this place and Dr. Dodson. Evil place!

Steph Shuyler

Certain veterinarians are better than others at this location. Overall decent service decent prices, they allow you to use care credit which is helpful to me. Nice animal hospital! Clean and friendly!

Lynne Flanery

Great local veterinary care here I prefer a Cat Vet, so I go to Frederick Cat Vet.

Dawn Innerst

Friendly staff and my dogs do very well with all of them!

John

Great friendly vet

Z. Black

Plan on waiting atleast 45min before you ever leave the waiting room. I've been here multiple times and without fail, every time we have to wait. Don't make any other plans atleast 2hrs after the appt time or try and squeeze an appt in on your lunch break.

Les You

I wish there were more stars on the survey than 10 because I would rate the Gettysburg Animal Hospital much higher if I could. From the front office staff, veterinary assistants, and the veterinarians working here, I must say they are the most caring and helpful people I have ever met. My husband and I care for many rescued cats. Some of our rescues have serious medical issues we only discover after taking them in. Whenever we call for an appointment for an emergency situation, the staff always does their best to accommodate us. Everyone here loves animals and go above and beyond to ensure your pet receives the best treatment at a reasonable price. Our primary veterinarian is Dr. Myra Jones. Some of our rescue cats are feral and require special handling. They can be a bit difficult to handle, but Dr. Jones is patient, and she takes the time to figure out how to handle them in a way that doesn't upset them, so she can give them the care they need. Their care and needs really are her priority. Dr. Jones is always professional, knowledgeable, and displays kindness and compassion for every cat we bring in. She always gives us the time we need and explains the situation in a straight forward and honest manner. She has saved the lives of many of our cats that seemed hopeless. We want to thank Dr. Jones and the rest of the staff at the Gettysburg Animal Hospital for everything you have done and continue to do for the rescue cats we bring to you. We are glad we found this practice and look forward to a long relationship.

Timothy Guyer

I cannot thank them enough for what they have done for Brownie. God Bless you and your whole staff!

Scott Kravitz

Excellent care for your 4 legged friends, doctors are very compassionate as well

Jason Ward

Gettysburg animal hospital helped me out in a pinch. I was on a road trip and stupidly forgot my heartworm medicine. My dog just had her annual exam and heartworm test less than a month ago and I had her vet records with me. They were able to review her vet records and sell me one month heartworm medicine so that I could finish my road trip safely for my dog. Everyone working there was friendly and the lobby and facility was clean. I would not hesitate to bring my dog there for any type of care. I found their approach very reasonable and had other places refuse to sell me 1 heartworm pill without an exam which was not necessary since my dog just had one less than a month ago.

George Williams

Great Vets an people for caring service

Amanda Garner

Love Dr. Dodson! He's very knowledgeable and thorough and I highly recommend!

Bev Beeman

Dr Dotson very rude person cold

melissa turner

Experienced vets and friendly staff. Wouldn't take my dog anywhere else. We've been taking him to the Animal Hospital 8 years as very pleased with their expertise and service.

Deborah Noell

We called around several places to get our bunny spayed. Every animal hospital we called wanted $400 - $500. We called Gettysburg Animal Hospital, recommended by The Bunny People, and they charged $140, which included pain medication and medicine to keep her GI tract moving. They didn’t see her as a disposable pet, like many other animal hospitals. They took excellent care of her. She is on day 3, post-op, and she is back to her normal self! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Gettysburg Animal Hospital!

casey lynn

I love Gettysburg Animal Hospital!!! My rabbit broke his leg and when we took him to Gettysburg Animal Hospital we expected the worst (we had clearly never been here) costing thousands of dollars. The vet was immediately understanding and they did an xray and confirmed the break. Rabbit fractures and breaks are extremely difficult to treat without spending THOUSANDS for a specialist. After deciding to amputate as a cheaper option, the vet took another xray before operation and said he could save the leg. All in all without seeing a specialist our humble local vet saved my rabbits leg and after splinting and casting his leg for a few months he is good as new and a super happy bunny! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, after all of this what would have easily been 1,000’s of dollars at other hospitals was ONLY 100 in total!! Absolutely insane. I love love love this place and trust them with all my pets.

Bishop David

We were told we would not have to wait since we were bringing our dog to be put down. Not true. There was a very mean dog that barked at every pet that came in while we waited. I was very uncomfortable and so was my daughter. A lot of stress and waiting to do the inevitable. Only one employee was helpful. I wish I knew her name, she deserves recognition.

Valerie Harrison

Wonderful staff and doctors.

Kaitlin Schriefer

When I took my cat in my vet was Debbie and I can’t speak highly enough about her. She kept my cats needs in my price range and was extremely informative about after care and helped me stay in my budget even though my cat was in pretty bad shape. Very respectful, very kind, and I’ll definitely be seeing her for any other needs, though hopefully few and far between. As far as the rest of the staff and the office in general, wait times are short, everyone is helpful and pleasant and they have always gotten me in either that day or the next. Never a long wait. Great office with great staff.

Trond Harman

This place is great!!!

Brandon Botts

A great veterinarian. Always good service. Sometimes a bit busy.

Trish Malone

Carol Bancroft

Gettysburg Animal Hospital helps your Animal and are helpful to you when you need help

Deb S.M.

I had to have my cat put to sleep. She was 16 years old, sick, and frail. The staff and vet were so kind and empathetic. They were efficient and made the process as comforting as is possible in this situation.

Diane Wiles

Dr. Jones is awesome! She is very patience and caring.We are very thankful for her.

Charles Daringer

We transferred to a more local Vet due to distance, we have 3 animals, two cats and a dog. "Miss Dog" or Missy has had some Cherry Eye issue and we of course googled and sought the Vets recommendations. We like the fact that the animal is treated in our presence, that the vets are personable and explain the treatment options. More importantly we felt that the steroids and eye drop approach and the best interests of the dog was paramount and frankly love our animal and as long as there was no medical issue would forego the surgery even if the condition makes her look bad. We appreciated the frank advice, non-rush to surgery, and the professional handling that we have received at that hospital. One of our cats Andy has been treated there and did have surgery due to fights, again the best interest of the animal and transparency is what we want. My wife and I both work in support of the medical field, and we want the same approach to treatment we would get. Though the drive is further, the best medical care for your pet is at this facility. I would recommend these people. Aside from saying Miss Dog was chubby, never nice to speak about a lady like that in the room, again.. good people. I rarely post comments and do however with Vets because I know your animals matter.

Bruce Jobe

Great for you and your pet

It's Only Me!

Loved our new Dr. @ Gettysburg Animal hospital! Best care and prices ever!

Brandy Jenkins

I wasn't going to post a review, however I had a bad experience with Dr. Dodson and I informed him and the clinic I would no longer bring my animals there. I had just paid for lab work on my dog who has cancer and I wanted the results to take to the next vet. On my paperwork, there's a note from Dr. Dodson that I was rude. So now I'm going to post my review. When I brought my dog into the vet to be seen, I basically already had an understanding that he had cancer so the test results were to confirm that so we could see what the next steps would be. The doctor did go over some options while he was examining my dog but nothing was set in stone. Once the lab results were back the doctor called me confirmed that it was lymphoma cancer. His next question to me was do you know what option you want to take and of course my response was no because I didn't have all of the facts, facts like what would the quality of life be if I tried treatment A or how much did treatment B cost. I understand cancer and I also understand that there is never a guarantee but I would figure that I would at least be entitled to that information however the doctor decided to then ask me well how much can you afford. He said can you afford $2,000 a month and I said I don't know and he said well how about a $1,000 or $500. At that very moment I didn't know the answer I don't know who actually would have that answer because when it comes to a pet it's not just about money it's about the quality of life and what treatments can offer and how they will physically affect the dog or pet. Not to Dr. Dodson though. He specifically told me that he wasn't going to waste time giving me the information if I didn't know how much I could afford monthly. And I'm supposed to be the rude one? I went on to explain to him that he obviously has been doing this way too long because his bedside manner iscompletely gone and it should never be just about the money. I'm sure I will get people that read this review and think that he was justified, but I can't say that. Its about having tact and he lost that along the way and I used to have such a good opinion of him. Not having $2000 a month for cancer treatments for my dog doesn't make me a bad pet mommy, it makes me a sad one. At this point I am taking my dog to another vet.

Lori Monn Cooper

Im there alot

Flinnie

There's a reason they're voted best Vet office year after year, because they are. They understand how attached you are to your "furbaby" and treat them with respect. Can't recommend them enough

Michael Dooner

Good but pricey. Bring your credit card. You're gonna need it!

Heather Fitzgerald

Love this place! They are the best when it comes to taking care of our fur babies.

Judie Kirk

They have been just the best Vets and I have had numerous pet that I have taken there.

Kev Brown

Good vets and very friendly staff

Karen Schlining

We board our pets here and they keep our pets healthy.

Paul Kriger

Took sick dog. Very nice place. Efficient & professional.

Keith Yaniga

My 13 year old dog was showing signs of lameness that turned into complete loss of control of his limbs. The causes were generally known but not confirmed without further expensive testing. The doctors and techs who worked with Devin didn’t give up and continued to give him the care and support he needed. They recommended overnight care and after a few days in their care, he began to show signs of improvement. He’s currently in the recovery stage and now at home. We can’t thank everyone who worked with Devin enough. He has a long road ahead of him but we are hopeful. Dr. Dodson, Dr. Nelson, Kylee, Tiffany, JoAnna, and Allison to name a few, THANK YOU!

Norma Dowling

Friendly and helpful service

Katrina Kimmel

Hahahaha They truly looove and care greatly for ALL the animals they serve. I will ALWAYS go here with my dogs. Thanks everyone at GAH! Ps, I think they do boarding of animals as well :)

We have moved from VABeach to Fairfield in 1997. We breeded Siberian Huskys at the time. We went to a local vet down the street for shots and exams for a litter of puppy's and it was outrageous priced. We started going to Gettysburg Vet then and still do. We have had several litters since. Have kept a dog from one litter and the mother and the father. We have had several cats come and go. Gettysburg get has always given us the respect and honor our animals have needed to be given. When 2 years so our cat got very ill on a weekend and was taken to an emergency vet, which chaged us an arm and a leg. We ok the cat there after. They fixed the problem for 1/4 of the price of the emergency vet had charged us and was going to charge us for a diagnosis. He is alive and still kicking. We took the Momma Siberian Husky there the day before Thanksgiving last year and we knew she was done. We called and asked to put her down They were going to put her on a gurney and I told them not to do that I did not want to remember like that. They abided and let my husband carry her in with dignity. They looked at her explained to us it was time and let her sleep in peace. They cremated her and we received a death certificate and a bautiful box we have her in. They called us to follow up to see if we were ok. Today her son is very ill. And we called them up and did not hesitate to take him in. I believe in these doctors with my life. We have been seeing them since 1997 with dogs, cats and a bird. They look at them and take care of them all. Kudos to your staff. Our family loves your work and compassion .

Wait time is ridiculous. I’d go somewhere else.

I moved to West Virginia 2 years ago and still take my pets to Dr. Dodson's practice. I trust them implicitly and their prices are completely reasonable. A vet in my new town was going to charge me over $200 for some extensive blood work on a pet. I called GAH and the same test was only $60. When my cat was bitten by a poisonous snake and required months of treatment, they could have billed me a small fortune for all the work they did to save his leg, and did not! Always kind and courteous, can't find another practice like it!
