Richard Colletti

She is an outstanding Vet

Jennifer Waugh

Dr. Sammons is so sweet, not only to our animals, but you us humans as well. We love her! She also has a great staff! Highly recommend!

Don Copeland

Expect voracious up-selling and predatory over-pricing. A vampire would be ashamed to charge these prices. You take your pet to South Franklin Animal Hospital only if you're eager to make you're vet a multi-millionaire.

Drew Collins

The services South Franklin Animal Hospital provides are wonderful. They do a great job taking care of my pets. I recommend them to friends and family all of the time.

Sara

Staff is very friendly and quickly becomes like family...getting to know you and your pets’ needs and preferences. Always knowledgeable and accommodating with any outside-the-box needs or requests. Our go to “home away from home” for all our pets.

Cheryl L. Sammons DVM WARNING: Review for South Franklin Animal Hospital in Franklin TN. After my adventure there I would give them a minus 10 rating. We rescued our dog Church 8/30/2014. Somehow this vet was involved in his care. Hannah Smith LVT suggests bloodwork along with his shots… so they “can really see what is going on” Cost will be $280 plus his heartworm medicine. I Mentioned that I didn't have that amount of cash with me that I would have to go home and get checkbook. I was there for monthly heartworm medicine which is $22 and a check of eyes and ears. Church goes with Hannah Smith LVT for lab work. Hannah Smith LVT had also tried to get me to sign up for a “plan” they had “just started” for X amount of dollars a month…..which sounded like a ploy to pay $50 a month plus medicine, to help pay their bills, when all I needed was $20 a month medicine. Plus my boyfriend was furious that they talked me into lab work by scaring me. I had called him crying, when Hannah Smith LVT took him back for exam. He said “please go back there and stop them and bring him home.” She eventually brings him back to me in exam room. Never did she say “go ahead and get your checkbook (so we can try to scam some more out of you) and he’ll be done when you get back.” ***Tag team match begins as vet Cheryl L. Sammons DMV appears and gives Church some kind of rawhide looking thing. I stopped her as she dropped it and said he is only allowed food as he has a sensitive stomach. Vet replies that it is good for his teeth as he has gingavitis. ***Every month that Church is groomed (not there) I was told by groomer that his teeth and gums are great for an older dog*** Now I realize vet did it was to make his gums bleed which they did and have never done before. She didn't give him any water, I now assume it’s because she wanted me to panic, watch him bleed then agree to a $357 dental cleaning. Meanwhile I am emotional at the thought of his bloodwork results. ***I have been through cancer myself along with my last two dogs, who didn't survive. I definitely had a nervous stomach.*** Cheryl L. Sammons DVM starts another sales pitch where the tech left off. The old fashioned up sell tactic. My shampoo wasn't “good enough” but the vets was. ***I didn't ask price, because my groomer never said my shampoo wasn't good enough.*** Vet says she put something in his ears and some drops in eyes. Church has never had tear stains so I did think the smell of wood fence may have irritated them. Her estimate is Church needed Phycox-Max soft chews for the gingavitis (that must have appeared since his last grooming?) for $55. Epi Optic Advanced $18. Mometamax for $33. -Gentocin Durafilm $38. They knew I didn’t have the money for all that and was told to come back when I did to pick those items up AND she added in a dental cleaning for $357. They thought they had a sale while telling me what I needed to do. ***She is still trying to close the sale. I explained that financially I could not spend $784.94 AND she gave up when I got teary eyed while still petrified of the bloodwork results. There is more that happened at the cashier desk and I was horrified at what the vet screamed at me in front of the waiting room. You can private message me for further info if you wish. When someone tells you "crack is whack" believe them

Blair Wilson

Dr. Sammons and her entire staff (Hannah, Abby, Debbie) are amazing. They have cared for my Persian Kitty for 6 years and have treated he and me like family. Dr. Sammons and Hannah were by my side at all times. You can not find a better veterinarian clinic to take care of your fur babies.

K N

South Franklin has been awesome to us! They treat our baby, Emory, like he is a member of their family. Like many, I am not able to stay home and administer the afternoon medicine that Emory needs so I take him to 'daycare' at South Franklin so he can be watched and get his mid afternoon medicine. We also have been able to have open communication regarding his well being. We have been very fortunate to have South Franklin Animal Hospital.

Annette Byrd

Always take best care of our boys!! SFAH saved my Rommell's life this week. He had heat exhaustion and Pancreatitis attack. We rushed him in they immediately took him and began to diagnose and treat our boy. We were able to visit him, received updates throughout the time he was there. They love our babies as much as we do! The hugs and support is so comforting. So grateful for Dr. Cheryl and all the staff!

Jamie Millen

I take my puppy to South Franklin for all regular check-ups, and I also take my older dog there for cancer treatments. They do an absolutely amazing job with everything, are very compassionate, and do whatever they can for them.

Dominick O'Donnell

Ben Plant

I have three dogs and I have been taking them to South Franklin Animal Hospital for years and they love the people that work there.

Janet Lind

I have always brought my puppy to South Franklin ever since I first got her. I take her there for check ups and any medicine she needs. They are very caring and considerate, and I have completely faith in their care.

Dr. Sammons and the staff (Hannah, Abby, Debbie) all are wonderful! Our pet is being given the utmost care. We are loving it. Thanks for the wonderful service.

Cathy Davis

The staff is always kind and efficient.. our dogs (all 4) love coming for their checkups and care! ❤️

Leticia Romero

I know that I will always be taking my pets to South Franklin Animal Hospital. I am always recommending them to family and friends and highly recommend their staff and services.

Lee Ann Wolff

This is the best place ever. They helped my sweet Oreo over the Rainbow Bridge in a caring and dignified way, with music, soft lighting, a red velvet blanket, and prepared her with a bio bag on her behind to keep her cleaner. We were traveling through Tennessee on our way west, so they even arranged for 24-hour turnaround for Oreo's ashes. When I move back to Tennessee I will want to live near South Franklin Animal Hospital so my other pets are well taken care of as well.

Rhonda Flowers

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS VET!!! Our Golden Doodle, Yogi was under her care for about 1 month and in this short time he is dead. He was given a lethal combination of drugs that ruptured his intestine/colon. The ER vet at Blue Pearl said anyone coming out of medical school would know not to give these meds together without a proper washout period.

Robert Consalvo

Leah Gordon

If you have you're looking for a vet in the area, definitely give South Franklin a shot! I was recommended by a friend and it turned out to be a great decision. My puppy had surgery and I now plan on making SFAH my primary vet. Dr. Salmons was very thorough and she, Hannah, and Natalie are extremely pleasant to work with.

rhonda flowers

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS VET!! Our Golden Doodle , Yogi was in Dr. Sammons care for about a month and he is now dead. She gave him a lethal combination of drugs that rupture his intestine/colon. The ER vet at Blue Pearl says anyone coming out of vet school should know better!!!!

john daniels

Expect unneeded up-sales left and right, sub par service, and a bill that's 2x higher than you'll find anywhere else. This place is a joke and the vet is completely unprofessional. If you care about your pets, please find another vet.

Connie Boone

Nikki Brooks

I love love love SFAH! Dr. Sammons is a loving and caring vet. The staff is always friendly and knows us and our dogs by name. We have been using them since they opened up and wouldn't think of taking our dogs anywhere else. They have always been extremely helpful. I highly recommend them.

Lisa Rodgers

I have consistently recommended South Franklin Animal Hospital to family and friends. They are great, The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. Furthermore the quality of services is excellent. I highly recommend the staff, doctors, and services available at South Franklin Animal Hospital

C George

CAUTION...CAUTION...CAUTION! We wish we would have read these other reviews before taking our dog to this vet. They seem just to be in the money-making business and pulled THOUSANDS of dollars out of us for visits and medicines which we found out too late that were not even necessary, and this was in less than a year's time! They mis-diagnosed a disease and kept on pushing us towards these medicines even when we questioned the vet on a regular basis. We definitely think you should reconsider before taking your pet to this hospital and to this vet!

Janie Terry

I can strongly and honesty say that I am fond of everyone and everything at South Franklin Animal Hospital. I I have been taking my pets there for over 3 years and highly recommend the staff, Dr. Sammons and the services.they provide

leslie buckley

Worst boarding experience ever!!!!!!

Barbara Vaughn

Dr. Sammons and her staff are the best. My female west highland terrier has some challenging skin issues due to an autoimmune disorder. Dr. Sammons has been treating her the last two years and my westie has gone from being hairless to having a full coat of hair.

Gerald Dalton

I've been taking my two dogs to South Franklin ever since they opened. They have a phenomenal staff of dedicated professionals - I'd never think to take them anywhere else.

Patricia Wells

Dr. Sammons and her staff are the best! I have been taking my dog to her for over a year now and we are always treated like family. They are so great with my pup, always listen and care. My pup loves going there.

Dan Shivener

The team is amazing !

Terre Grable

So I have read the other negative comments about SFAH and wanted to share my own experience with them. We have been patients of SFAH since it opened. First, we began as boarding and then because of their exceptional care received, we became clients. We have had the privilege of having SFAH treat three different animals from puppies to geriatrics and continue to be more than pleased with their care. They have even cared for our fish when we have boarded our other animals. In addition to finding a veterinarian that is extremely well versed in her field, we have found someone that has always been honest. Several times I have inquired and requested lab tests for our animals because of my own concerns. Dr. Sammons has always been provided substantial reasons for either my not doing them or telling me to wait because the specific blood panels would be included in dental work; thereby avoiding my being double charged. When we have decided to order meds from Pet Meds for our animals, they have always provided the paperwork that we needed without any reservation. However, for the record, the flea/tick recommendations Dr. Sammons has personally recommended have always been superior and more affordable to the ones we have found online. Throughout the years, the staff has taken the time to get to know each one of our animals and their temperament. As an example, one of our animals has always been anxious to go to the vet. After careful observation, Dr. Sammons and the staff worked with her to point that she is now more relaxed during boarding, and she enjoys being at SFAH from the caring environment and loving staff. Dr. Sammons always answers every single question I ask with understanding and a desire to help our animals. She is easy to get a hold of and welcomes any concerns. There have even been times when she has stayed after hours to answer my questions. Regarding cost of services, SFAH fees seem to be well within the normal range of other vets in the area and even lower in many cases. Given their knowledge of current innovative services, they will recommend current courses of veterinary treatment. However, whenever I have chosen to decline or postpone services I am always greeted with understanding and professional manner. If you are looking for a well-educated veterinarian that utilizes the most current standards of veterinary medicine and repeatedly puts ethics above profit - then look no further than SFAH.

Frances Consalvo

We have been going to south franklin animal hospital for years. We have multiple cats and dogs. The staff is compassionate and knowledgeable and treat our pets like their own. In my opinion, Dr. Sammons is one of the best vets in franklin, if not tn, and I would not trust my guys with anyone else.

Steven Culp

Recently my cat of over 16 years had what appeared to be a tumor under her jaw. The staff was awesome. The situation was not good, but they laid out every option clearly for me to consider. They were kind, clear communicators, did not sugarcoat anything, and allowed me to make my decision. Ultimately, we had to euthanize my dear pet....but my new pet....will be treated at South Franklin Animal Hospital.

Rachel Cornelius

I can't say enough good things about this vet. Their entire staff are incredible, SO sweet and professional. Also, they offer free nail trimmings any time you ask, and they have really awesome availability for quick appointments if needed. They took care of our beloved kitty when she passed away, even surprising us with her paw print in cement keepsake that they created when she died. Now we take our dog to them. We will continue to give them our business with every pet we have in the future.

Brittany Hodak

Dr. Sammons and her staff are amazing! My puppy LOVES going to the vet. The entire team is incredibly attentive and really care about the individual pets they see. Dr. Sammons is easily the best vet I've ever taken a pet to, and SFAH is wonderful!

Samantha Smith

Very caring vet. Great team and always doing their best for your animals health

Ann Trubey

Wonderful, knowledgeable, caring staff! Dr. Cheryl Sammons goes above and beyond for my dogs.

After moving her a few years ago and bouncing around a few vets trying to find a good one, we are glad to have found this vet. They are personable, professional, and great on the wallet too.

Man University

Travis Poole

I enjoy everything about South Franklin Animal Hospital. They're great, knowledgeable people who truly care about you and your animals.

Russell Davidson

Whenever I go into South Franklin Animal Hospital they know how to deal with my dog. He is very difficult to deal with when it comes to the vet.

Renee Koch

Dr. Cheryl Sammons and all of her team at SFAH are the very best of the best. I moved here to Nashville 20 years ago and searched for years for a Vet that I could trust...someone who would view me as a partner in assuring that my Rottweilers get what they need to live an optimal life. I found everything I was looking for at SFAH. Besides, no practice I’ve ever seen loves their clients like family - but Dr. Cheryl and team are part of our pack!!

Natalie Stroop

I could not of been happier with my experience at South Franklin Animal Hopsital. At first I was a little hesitant because the prices are higher than previous vets I have been too. But after talking to the staff and Dr. Sammons my eyes were opened to many different things I did not know before, and realize cost was only higher because their quality of medicine is better than going to a cheaper vet...and quality in my eyes for my animals is SO much more important to me than cost. I got my sweet puppy spayed at South Franklin and they took SUCH wonderful care of her, and her recovery was slim to none, and you cannot even see incision! They did a free bath and she looked amazing!! My dogs are excited when I walk into SFAH which has never happened at any other vet. I would not choose another clinic to go to. Dr. Sammons is absolutely wonderful, she is so knowledgable and her staff is great! I would suggest to anyone before complaining about the costs, compare to other clinics and see the value you are getting! SOO worth it!

Carla W

My pet and I have been going to South Franklin Animal Hospital for about 3 years. I am always seen in a timely manner and highly recommend the services and staff.

Jordan Donald

The team at SFAH is incredible! We are part of the family and they do their utmost to ensure a positive experience for our babies, and ourselves. We drive 45 minutes each way just to bring our dogs here. Best veterinary team I have ever experienced.

Terry Williams

Gina Nuenke

Dr. Sammons is the best vet I’ve ever been to! The time she took to talk to me about not only the present check-up of my puppy, but about training her and how to make her the best dog for the future was so great! She never once acted like she needed to rush out the door for another patient. She was totally tuned into me and spent 30 plus minutes talking to me about my puppy and the other dogs I have at home. I highly recommend Dr. Sammons at Franklin Animal Hospital!

Christina Lewis

Kalinda Fisher

I couldn't possibly ask for a more knowledgeable vet, more empathetic and compassionate staff or simply more caring people than I (and Tillie) get with South Franklin. We are thrilled they are helping us navigate our journey and they do it respectfully and wonderfully.

Sherry Schaffer

Dr. Sammons is a GENIUS W. Eidetic (photographic) Memory. She Fiercely Researches answers to every health issue in question; And Compassion is her guide. I’ve been devoted to Doc and her team since the beginning. I commute 50 miles each way for Doc’s expertise- And may I say Thank You Doc!

Billy Collins

The S. Franklin staff is always friendly, not just to our pets, but the whole family. They have given excellent care to both of our dogs and gave them plenty of attention when we boarded them. There have been times the staff has gone above and beyond to support our family in their care of our dogs.

Forrest Smith

I can’t say enough about the support I have received for my golden doodle Rudy. I found out this spring he had a skin disease that caused him to loose his hair. The SFAH and Dr Sammons have given Rudy bathes weekly, proper medication and care so that now he is feeling 100 percent better. Not to mention his anxiety and the way they always approach him with their fear free hospital. Thank you all so much!!!
