Southport Animal Hospital Reviews
dr. laurababiescompassionatefurpriceinformationgroomingdoors
★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1- The front desk lady was nice. The technician that I got was horrible - in the exam room, she grabbed my 16-week old Italian Greyhound by the nose (they are known to be extremely sensitive dogs and have long noses) because he wasn't holding still. Grabbing them by the nose is very disrespectful and they do not like it. She then proceeded to tell me "You should play with his face more" whatever the hell that meant. Very bizarre and unprofessional.The vet was ok.Will not be returning August 18 · Sophia Setoodeh
- Absolutely trust this vetinary clinic with my fur baby! The vet techs were very thorough, the veterinarian left me speechless she was so kind and AMAZING with my dog. The receptionist was very nice. Highly recommend this clinic to all fur baby parents!!! February 11 · Ciara Bush
- Dr Laura has cared for my kitties for 20 yrs. She is the best. She is kind and loving, talks to my pets. She always provides excellent care. August 01 · Phyllis Watt
- Absolutely do not take your pet to this vet. The conditions are disgusting and completely unacceptable for any animal. The manager is careless and clearly unfit to oversee a facility like this. There have been worms left behind in the operating room, which is not only unsanitary but dangerous for every animal that comes through there. Even worse, the kennels are filthy dogs are left to lay in areas covered in animal feces, matted hair, and dried urine. There is no proper cleaning routine, no basic hygiene, and absolutely no sign of compassion for the animals in their care.It’s heartbreaking and enraging to see this kind of neglect at a place that’s supposed to be helping animals, not making them worse. Until major changes are made, this place should be avoided at all costs. June 18 · ciara w
- No dogs enjoy going to the vet, but Dr. Laura and the Southport staff do ALL they can to make visiting a good experience, both for my two dogs and for me. We've depended on their excellent care for a dozen-plus years now, and I would highly recommend them. February 25 · Melanie Deardorff
