Had one cat I brought here a few times and it was clearly expensive but the location was great. I then found two new kittens and have since given this place hundreds and hundreds of dollars. I was told two new kitten appointments that have now somehow turned into 4 appointments each time costing me $200+. Never any interest in explaining why everything is so expensive and absolutely no other services offered such as nail clipping or anything. Also do they really all need to take lunch at the exact same time? Had to stand in the rain because I had an appointment when their lunch ended and they refuse

UPDATE: Unfortunately, Dr. Lawson has moved to a new clinic. We've had good experiences with the vet there now.
---------
Dr Lawson at City Vets is an extraordinary doctor. He clearly adores the patients in his care. He is knowledgeable, attentive, thorough, and goes to extraordinary lengths to help you understand your furry friend's medical problems, no matter what background you come from. We were frankly astonished at the time and care he took to help us understand Nadja's conditions. One time, he returned our call so late we were sure he was staying way overtime at the clinic to care for

If you love your pet, go somewhere else - like ANYWHERE else. They are located on the corner of my house and I am never going back there. Money grabbers, couldn’t care less about your pet. Really really disapointed in this so called vet clinic, extremely sad to see a place like this treat animals with such neglect.

Dr. Lawson no longer works here. He was the only doctor worth seeing. The other doctors have no empathy for you or your pets.
I recently took my cat to CityVets and was charged $70 for them to tell me they can’t do anything. My cat was there less than 10 minutes.
Also, I was told that since I wrote a review about my negative experience, they will no longer see my cat. So on top of being unprofessional and overpriced; this clinic refuses to try to improve via constructive criticism.
I would recommend not wasting your time or money with this vet.

I called in to set up an appointment and they informed me they are not taking new clients at this time due to the worker shortage. Understandable, considering the pandemic is just now coming to an end in our country.
They were very professional and helpful, however, by giving suggestions for other clinics near downtown.
Because of the convenience and professionalism, I (and my lovely cat) hope to be future customers.

City vets is an outstanding place if you are in need of pet care. They have convenient hours, as well as a convenient location. We took our bunny Gertie there multiple times and always experienced excellent customer service. Unfortunately, Gertie passed after her last checkup, but the team at city vets was so kind as to send a hand written sympathy card. It was a nice little touch that made all of the difference!

Do not take your exotic pets here. I have spent $250 on vet bills for my sick animals, and the exotic vet just gave some supplements for two of them and said the other was just scared of me despite my insistence on physical issues, not just behavioral ones. (I told them I know my animal has lost weight since I have a scale, and they ignored that)

I’ve gone here twice so far. The first time was almost a year ago for my cats regular checkup. She’s 5 but I’ve had trouble finding a vet I both like and can afford. They were very kind and understanding of her anxiety and put her in a “cat burrito” to keep her calm during the exam and they talked me through everything. The 2nd time I came was yesterday for suspected feline acne. Bc of covid, I couldn’t go in with her but the vet called me to tell me all the info over the phone and was patient with my questions. They did a thorough examination of her and prescribed medication for a

The professionals at City Vets are incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. We have seen each of the vets at one time or another, but Dr. Lawson has been particularly wonderful to us. Our older dog (14 yo) has a collapsed trachea that he occasionally needs to be seen for and he also needed multiple teeth extractions which the vets handled with care. Our puppy (5 mo) has received all of her vaccinations and check ups from them and Dr. Lawson takes the time at each visit to give us a thorough update on her health and answer any health or behavioral questions. Depending on the service, the pricing

Great Southside find! They were able to see my sick pup the very next day. Every staff person we ran into was kind and informative, and the doctor went out of his way to explain what was going on with my dog. He was helpful and not at all pushy. It was a great vet experience- we will definitely be back!
