Provided by YP.comMy family had a HORRIBLE experience with All About Animals on June 28, 2011. We were very disappointed with the way our 2 year old Miniature Dachshund, Bailey, was treated when we took her in for a severely injured leg. In the past, we have taken our animals there to get their shots and check-ups, and have received decent care for the minor things. However, I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND using All About Animals for sick or injured animals. After this horrible experience, my family will NOT be taking any of our pets back there again for any reason, not even shots! Dr. Lipham failed to render care to our pet and allowed her to lay in her own blood, hurting and in shock from 7:50 a.m. until 4:45 p.m. at which time he finally told us that "he had looked her over briefly but had not done much for her because he assumed that we would just put her down (euthanize her) rather than wanting to spend a bunch of money on orthopedic surgery to repair her leg.”
We were devastated at the thought of our sweet little girl lying there suffering all day long, even though we had called nine times (literally) and stopped by there twice attempting to get an update on her and find out if they were able to help her or if we would need to take her elsewhere that specialized in these types of injuries. We were not upset at the fact that the care Bailey needed was outside the scope of Dr. Lipham’s expertise. Our upset was over the fact that Dr. Lipham and his Staff did not tell us that they HAD NOT helped her and COULD NOT help her. When we took her in that morning, we made it very clear to the Vet Techs to PLEASE ask Dr. Lipham to do all that he can to help her, no matter how much it would cost, and IF he could not help her, PLEASE call us immediately so we could take her to a Veterinarian who specializes in trauma.
All About Animals charged us $150 when all they did was allow her to lay there suffering all day. The amount of money was not the issue, it was the NEGLIGENCE! We paid them and left immediately to take her to Georgia Veterinarian Specialists (GVS) in Roswell and they agreed that Dr. Lipham and the Staff at All About Animals were negligent in this situation and said they should NOT have let Bailey lay there, hurting and with open wounds all day. GVS began working on her immediately. They were absolutely wonderful and we are blessed that they were willing and able to save her life. It has been almost four weeks now and Bailey is doing GREAT! She is walking fine and expected to make a full recovery within the next 6-8 weeks. Our family is so thankful that we were able to take our pet to a caring, competent place (GVS) and save her life instead of killing her as Dr. Lipham had suggested. It is our hope that other families will not suffer a loss because All About Animals refuses to admit when they cannot handle a situation. Its okay if they can’t, but they should be willing to tell you that rather than trying to make it seems as if an animal has no hope. After all, a Vet should be in this field because he cares about animals and not because he simply wants to make a living $150 at a time! If your pet is part of your family and you consider them to be a loyal little person in a fur coat, as we do, I would NOT recommend using All About Animals as your Vet Clinic. Our new regular Veterinarian is Dr. McCord at Bowdon Animal Clinic and he is WONDERFUL!

Provided by YP.comI was hesitant to change vets but was not happy where i was going. I called other vets office but when I reached “All About Animals,” i knew this was the place for my cats kids. Robert is not the typical receptionist. He knew to ask the right questions and made me feel welcome. He also did not push more procedures than necessary. The vet is what I look for in experience and also compassion. Rest of the staff is excellent
