Services
ALL ANIMALS MUST HAVE CURRENT IMMUNIZATIONS! Unless proof of immunization is submitted, the required inoculation(s) will be administered when the animal is brought in. Animals will be admitted during normal office hours only. We board animals as a service to our clients on a reservation basis. Each animal is housed in a separate compartment.
Please make an advance appointment so that your waiting time will be minimized for your convenience. By working on an appointment system there is more effective time available for surgery, examinations, and treatment of hospitalized patients. Our office hours are 8:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday through Friday, and 8:00am to 12:00pm.
Your pet's problems cannot be adequately diagnosed over the telephone. As with your own family physician or dentist, a personal examination is necessary to properly determine the problem and prescribe a program of treatment. Our policy is one of preventative care for your pet. Many disease processes can be identified and prevented in their early stages through timely check-ups.
From time to time the staff members of this clinic will be participating in post-graduate continuing education courses. This is for the purpose of staying abreast of the latest medical and surgical developments in veterinary medicine. Consequently it may be that the veterinarian you wish to see may not be present at the time of your visit.
We can quote fixed fees for standardized services such as vaccinations, office calls, and certain routine surgical procedures. But for many procedures, particularly in the area of surgery, it is impossible to predict how much time and attention will be required.
Because of these uncertainties it is not possible to determine a fixed charge in advance, although we may be able to make an estimate based on prior similar situations if no complications or unforeseen circumstances arise.Fees are based on time skills, services rendered, caliber of our personnel, facilities, drugs, and equipment.

This is Coco she has seen Doc since she was 8 weeks old . He knows dogs- he is a no frill vet. Charges you fairly and always has the answers for my questions. If you want a vet who knows animals and loves them he is your guy . If you want wonderful bedside manner and a new office environment this is not your vet. He is old
school and knows animals and gives great care

My dog had an issue with one of her toenails. I contacted emergency vets and was told to soak it and leave it as is. Having had this happen once before I knew when would need antibiotics again. Called here in the morning after dealing with it best I could all night. Doc was awesome said to bring her in around 10 and he would take care of it. Got there and staff and doc were amazing!!! Took care of the issue and hopefully made it to where it doesn’t happen again. Gave her antibiotics and wrapped it up. Made sure I was ok since she has had bad reactions to anesthesia in the past and he knew I was

Sent my girl here with our dog because our normal vet wasn't available and specifically sent a note to not touch him if at all possible he only had a hot spot and doesn't do vets very well all I did was request amoxicillan. I ended up having to go there during his visit by the time I got there the vet busted out his tooth, chocked my dog and shot him up with a sedative that knocked my dog out for 6 hours even after my girlfriend told them not to!And then had the nerve to charge me a $100 for the visit!!This place is nasty and not clean at all this vets liscense should be revoked!

I normally don’t leave reviews, but oh my gosh am I grateful for these people. My cat has 4 kittens, and had pyometra and needed emergency surgery to have her uterus removed. I probably called 17 vet clinics today, and none of them would see her. They were a godsend! The guy worked after hours to fit her in and save her life. And the lady at the counter was nice enough to give me formula for the babies free of charge for while she was there and under the influence of anesthesia. They charged me less than initially quoted because the surgery didn’t have to be as extensive as they first thought

I don't normally leave reviews, but feel compelled to write one after reading some of the negative ones left here... We moved to the area in late 2019, just before COVID struck, and needed to find a veterinary clinic.
Frankly, we chose Lakeland because it was small and seemed personal, and was the only clinic at the time that would allow you to stay with your cat or dog, rather than leaving them with a stranger at the door.
Early on, Dr. B. treated our aging Springer Spaniel by sucessfully removing a large cancerous growth - thereby giving her an extra year-and-a-half of happy, pain free life

I really love going to this clinic. They care about you and your pet. They treat your pet as a family member. They didn't turn us away when we didn't have the money up front. They were also very caring when our cat had to be put to sleep. They even helped us to adopted a new baby (cat) to our family!! I highly recommend this clinic!!

Got my dog neutered, didn’t receive any pain medication. Stitches were very poorly done. He also had an ear infection so we definitely knew he had to have some type of meds. We asked “so what medicine do we give him at home” then it seemed to hit ohhh yeah medicine ! His stitches popped open now we’re at an er vet getting staples.

The veterinarian (old man) was very rough with our cat. He yanked her out of her carrier and was not listening to my wife about why our cat was upset in the first place. He was not receptive to any information. He proceeded to be rough when taking the cats temperature and weighing her. He was condescending and rude. We highly recommend taking your animals somewhere else. I would give this place 0 stars if I could.
