Worst vet that I’ve ever been to and the dr that was supposed to give my cat a check up quite literally was so rude and was not helpful at all , my cat was having an anxiety attack from all the sounds and cars while we were leaving so I asked him if we could wait for my ride and he said no even when my cat was making sounds and jumped and him he literally pushed her off him and said no we have to leave .

Brought my two dogs in to Dr. Malernee for dental services. He did a thorough inspection on both of them on a Saturday to help accommodate my coming from out of town. He was friendly and courteous and charged a fair price for services. All of his prices are listed on his website and are very good. He also talked to me directly about the best approaches to my pups’ health. If I lived in the area he would definitely be my regular vet.

I brought my dogs Buster and Luigi in for their shots Because I just moved into a new apartment and had to have proof of vaccinations. This is often very difficult as Buster is skittish and Luigi can be aggressive towards other dogs so whenever we go to the vet it’s an absolute nightmare. In addition I have found in the past when I go for a simple rabies vaccination somehow they forced me into lots of vaccinations and it’s hundreds of dollars for each dog.
Seeing Dr. M was the most pleasurable experience I’ve had at a vet. He met us right in the front room and got down on the floor with

Dr. Malernee cared for my Chihuahua Charlie Brown for numerous years. Doc has a lot of experience in his field and always recommend what was needed when Charlie was sick. Prices are very affordable especially because he runs the office with just himself. I recommend Dr. Malernee to anyone and will return when I adopt another fury baby.

I absolutely love the Dr.
He has seen my dog from the age of 4weeks old until she died at 14 years old. The puppy Venus is my new doggie. Added picture of Serena who he saw from 4 weeks to 14 years old

I was happy from the moment we met! Doc, as he likes to be called, is a friendly, honest, caring and well-read vet, who won't prescribe services or meds unless he feels they're necessary. What that means is less trauma for my dog and less stress on my pocketbook. Doc sits down on the floor with my dog for exams. He makes eye contact, gives lots of rubs, and builds trust. And best of all, he always has time for a good story.

Dr Malernee has been our vet for over 30 years and he is amazing! Completely honest, never over charging or suggesting unnecessary procedures and completely available whenever we need him. I can call him with a question and he returns my call within the hour. I completely trust him and highly recommend him. The best!!!

This might be a one man band vet practice, but Dr Malernee is personable, honest and compassionate. He won't try suction as much money as possible from you. Other vets I've seen just try to find anything to keep adding to the charges. He will honestly offer and do what's best for your pet. Nothing unnecessary.

Best vet I have ever went to. I wish I still lived in Florida. There are no good vets in Louisiana. Irreplaceable. I miss bringing my pets to him. I also wanted to comment about the examination on the floor. The floor is clean and dogs and cats get upset being lifted on a stainless steel table. The vet often examined the animals on his or my lap. Also you must only have little find dogs. Where do you think big dogs are examined? The table is easier in the vet not the pet. Malernee did a delicate surgery on my old 17 year old cat. He saw her cancer was inoperable (in every lobe of liver and in stomach
