After practicing out of his house in Filion for a few years, the Bad Axe Animal Medical Clinic was built by Dr. David Wakefield in 1972. He soon joined with Drs. Richard and Rhoda Short to form the clinic. It has since passed to other owners but the tradition of quality medicine has always remained!

Dr. Jane grew up in the Ubly area and has a long history with our clinic! She first started as a kennel aid here and then attended Michigan State University to become a Veterinary Technician. After serving here as a technician she went back to school and earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree.

They are really good. When are old dog got sick and we had to put her down. They sent a card out to us. It really shows that they care about all of are animals and how they are feeling.

I’ve been bringing my pets here for 30 years. My pets see Dr. Jane most of the time. I’m extremely satisfied with her care. The staff is very friendly and always helpful.

Receptionist was very rude when I called to ask questions about my puppy. Completely not understanding that we rescued a puppy from poor conditions and needing him checked out however she instead of helping was very judgemental about the situation and completely rude. Sadly won't be returning.

I've been a pet owner and animal caregiver for many years and I've never seen a veterinary clinic where the vets are so inconsiderate, uncaring and with such a total lack of empathy for patients, pets and their owners as this clinic. They are devoid of any people/pet skills and are only in it to push unnecessary products/services to pay for their next yacht or trip. They do not know how to handle animals and would sooner make you pay for a sedative to put your pet to sleep than to try and get to know your pet. They are coarse, crass and abusive to the clients and think that's proper

Took my Mothers dog in for oral surgery on Thursday and he began to have problems controlling his bowels on the following day. I called because I was very concerned. Instead of them have me bring him back in to be checked they told me to give him 1cc of anti diarrhea medicine. On Saturday, after his medicine was given to him, he began having seizures and when we called the emergency number we were told the emergency Vet was in Saginaw. He died on the way. I feel we were very misinformed about the whole procedure and to have an emergency veterinary center over an hour away is inexcusable.

Excellent care! Our dog has lived longer because of the care he has received at Bad Axe Animal Clinic. (Max, Golden Retriever, age 14) We have two dogs and two cats and visit the clinic frequently.

I have bringing my cat here for about 13 years and this is the best place I have found. They haave always gotten me in promptly and seem genuinally concernrd for my cat. I have tried plenty of other vet clinics and this is by far the best place I have found. The doctors and techs are knowledgeable and have always answered my questions for me. I drive an hour and a half to this clinic and have always been pleased with the service I have gotten there. They have won my loyalty and I will continue to use them.
