I've had to come up here 3 times this year for 3 different animals each with a different problem. Each time, we were met with a different technician and doctor and each time it was a PHENOMENAL experience. I would highly recommend this place to anyone I know for small and large animal care as these people are clearly very devoted to the care of our animals.

From my first point of contact to the last—every single person I interacted with was so nice. I was already upset and it seems like when I’m already upset—it don’t take much to set me off. But they didn’t give me any reason to be set off. I don’t know if I’m conveying how astonished I am about the fact that everyone was so nice. They took really good care of my fur baby too.

Amazing care, great staff, prices are a bit high but for a big office that's to be expected. Main complaint of mine is I've manually unsubscribed to their emails four times and called twice in which they said they had taken me off of the email list but I still receive emails after 2 years of not being a customer there anymore. Currently going to block their email but I should've been taken off of the list the first time I unsubscribed. Kind of frustrating but it doesn't speak for their patient care which was very good in my opinion.

I have now brought in two pets to Live Oak several times over the past year. In each case I needed to bring my pet back for multiple visits after Live Oak’s trial and error system for treatment was not working. One pet ended up having ringworm and the other pet had a UTI. In both cases, these extremely common ailments were treated with one visit at… a different veterinary clinic. I’m disappointed with myself for giving Live Oak several weeks worth of chances and now thousands of dollars to attempt to help my furry babies. The staff is friendly but we will not be returning due

We had to put down our very special puppy of 14 1/2 years yesterday. Kendall was the sweet tech who helped us! She was so amazing and loved on us and our Brynn. She made her passing a little easier! They took… such good care of her and of us! We can not sing Kendall and the clinic’s praises enough! Thank you for being the hands and feet of Christ to us yesterday! Our hearts needed you, sweet Kendall!

Post Covid staffing issues aside, the Doctors here are highly rated. Dr. Cunningham can usually accurately diagnose from just a glance. Providing options & effective treatment plans, he's one of the best to provide quality care. The clinic does stay busy, I'd try & schedule appointments earlier rather then later to avoid a wait or the 5 o'clock rush.

Wow. I made an appointment for 5 PM. Granted it being Friday I expected a bit of a wait. 1 hour and 15 minutes passes before I get called into the room while several non emergency walk-ins are called along with another lady who also had an appointment at 5. I continued to wait another 30 minutes for a vet to come in and finally could not wait any longer as I have a 10 month child at home needing dinner and to be put to bed…Nearly 2 hours sitting at a vets office for an appointment. I’m a very tolerant person when it comes to being busy as I’ve worked in customer service for years, but when

I can’t give this place enough stars. My dog was fixed by another vet, came home and ended up having some complications. Dr. Hildebrandt and her entire team went over and beyond for us and our dog. She did surgeries on her lunch break, after hours, (2 different ones) and they were all SO sweet to us! Thank you all so much! You are all greatly appreciated

I rescued my French Bulldog, Juni, in 2019 while I was living and working in Shenzhen, China. She had been horribly neglected and I was able to nurse her back to health. I brought her back with me to the US in December 2020.
She got nose surgery with Dr. Clary to open her airways. Everything went well. About 2.5 months later, she suddenly developed IVDD. This is a disk disease where she had a disk bulging in her spine and greatly affected her ability to walk. It was very distressing. She was so young, only 3 years old. I took her to my local emergency vet, kept her on crate rest, and did everything
