If you take your pets to these people you're insane. This might be the worst Clinic I've ever heard of. I stopped taking my dog here years ago when I caught them charging me for services that were not required. Just recently my parents took their dog to this Clinic. He was very sick and throwing up. They told my father that they could do blood work but it wouldn't do him any good and they gave him a bunch of shots including Depakote and sent him home. The dog died with his face on his water dish that same day! Anyone with any Common Sense will tell you that the first thing you should do with any animal is run blood work to determine the cause of the animals illness! Depakote should be a last resort. They basically gave the dog a bunch of shots and sent him home so that he could lay on the floor and die. I could go on and detail but the bottom line is no one should ever take their animal to these people. There are a lot of wonderful vets throughout the area find someone else! These people do not have your pets best interest in mind.

They are always polite kind and courteous. And they always treat our two German Shepherds as if they were their own.

I have used Carbondale over the last 10 years with my pets. They have been very nice and accommodating with an appointment I needed, even last minute. I couldn't be happier!! I have 3 small children and they are always happy to help me with my dogs, even to my car.

I wish I could give this place a 0. I have taken my one dog here for 13 years and the service was never great but it was convenient. My new rescue began to itch his ear so much it began to bleed. I called the vet and they told me they had no room for emergencies and to comes other day. Apparently that is not enough of sn emergency for them. So, finally they told me to come in at 10. I got there and they stuck me in a back room for 1.5 hours alone. Not one person came in and my poor shelter dog was having a heart attack with all of the sounds. While I was waiting I saw the vet in the back room with her children giggling, eating and gossiping while I am waiting. Are you kidding me? On top of that, they purposely hid me in the back because I called last minute. You are punishing my dog because he had an emergency? Also I finally went out after 1.5 hours to the receptionist and she said " whatever we have other emergencies" very blasé and rude. I left and I will never take another dog back there.

horrified!!! THEY SKINNED MY CAT!!!!!! That's right, I made an appt for a sedate and shave, for $125. Brought the cat home and noticed two huge burn marks on neck and back. The next day it became worse, he was fire red all over the top of him and sides. they said to bring him in, and a woman named Sarah, assisting the dr could'nt handle him, picked my burnt cat up by his neck and shook him and yelled Stop!! now Stop! She put additional nail scratch marks on him!! The lousey dr named Spanelli, gave him a cortizone shot (which did hep), but not before he almost went into shock when I returned home. The cat began shaking and shivering in 80 degree weather. Thank goodness a while latter he got better., but all the deep scratches and burn marks really showed up. I am in the process of taking pictures of my cat. So be leary of cheaper prices and a lot of available appointments. I think those morons actually though it was funny. I am numb. Three people shaved him and apparently did not use the apply product to the clippers so they don't become hot, the place should be closed , and they should all do time!! I am asked to give a star rating to post this!!

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE!!!!! I went there for a few months with my 2 dachshunds. I left the area for a year or so. Shortly after returning, one of my babies hurt her back on a Friday evening. I called them Saturday morning, they were OPEN at the time and I explained to them what was going on. She had NO loss of motion and had full use of her hind legs. Pretty obvious that she had a muscle injury. They refused to see her, wanted me to drive OVER AN HOUR away!!! Keep in mind that they are advertised as ANIMAL HOSPITAL!!! Avoid these people like the plague, they could care less for your animals!!!!!
