Provided by YP.comThere are Angels working here! My baby, Cherish Pearle Williams was very sick. She wouldn't have made it through the night if not for Dr. Calley and her staff. Everyone was so helpful and understanding. They stayed after hours fighting to save her life. When me and my mom brought her into the Wellness Clinic she was so weak she couldn't even hold her head up. I was shocked how fast it had all changed. A few days ago she was playing, running and eating, just living a great life. We couldn't keep her still. She's always been very active with a big appetite. I was scared! I know if wasn't for Dr. Calley and her staff my little girl wouldn't be here today. There are no words to describe how grateful me and my family are to them. They are Angels in disguise. They all went above and beyond for her and brought her back to us. She has made a remarkable recovery in just one week. If you could see her now you wouldn't know we almost lost her just one week ago. Cherish is an 11 year old Chihuahua. She had pyometra which is an infection in the uterus. It is deadly and moves very fast. I'm just so thankful Dr. Calley moves faster. Thank God for her. Everything could have turned out so much different if not for her. Now my family will have a wonderful holiday season because my baby Cherish is with us for many more years to come. Please have your animals spayed. That could have prevented what happened to my family. I never knew it was so important. God Bless the Lowcountry Pet Wellness Clinic. We are FOREVER GRATEFUL!!

Provided by YP.comThis clinic is a life saver. They are very good at what they do but will put you in your place if you don't care for your animals. This is the best place to bring your little ones if you love them... Any bad reviews would be considered rude and not worth reading. These people saved a feral cat for me that no one else would. He is now my huge house cat and very loving. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Dr .Calley for all the hours you worked on my cat and the other 2 cats and 4 dogs I have!!!!! You are the best in South Carolina and your fee's don't hurt anyone's budget! Thank you for caring so much.

Provided by YP.comI tell people about this place all the time. I do let them know to plan on waiting a while if your pet needs to see the vet. This place sometimes has a very high volume of patients so plan on it taking a couple hours if the place is packed and your animal needs to see the vet. I haven't ever used the spay/neuter services here since I took my dog to the Charleston Animal Society for hers, but my experience there was similar to the one described by another review here. I hate to break it to those people but that is how low cost clinics work. You drop off in the morning by a certain time and pick up (usually same afternoon) by a certain time. You pay less but it takes some of your time. If you can't give up the time then give up the money and pay the full price somewhere else. I still come here for my heartworm preventative and will have my dogs regular vaccinations done here this year as well. I always get in and out really quick when I pick up medicine.
I almost forgot but I have one other experience of this place. I tamed one of the stray cats enough to be able to pet him and even pick him up. He was already fixed from going through a feral cat program at ASPCA and I really wanted to find him a home, but he had a cold. My husband helped me get him into our cat carrier and I took him in. I decided to have him tested for FIV and Feline Leukemia, just to be safe. He was not used to other people but with a little convincing the staff agreed to teach me how to hold him properly so they could draw his blood for the tests. He came back positive for FIV. I could not release him outside and I also could not bring him in with our 3 healthy cats. I made the heartbreaking decision to have him put to sleep. They asked me to pay for the testing and then we went in a private room. There was no charge for putting him down and the vet and staff were all extremely supportive.

Provided by YP.comMy boyfriend and I found a cat outside of our apartment complex. After trying unsucessfully to find it's home, we decided to get the cat it's shots in order for it to find a home. We found a great vet in our area who would do the shots at a reasonable price. After that we found her a home and we decided to pay for her to get fixed. It was too expensive at the vet that we usually go to so, we got a recommendation from a friend to bring our cat to the Lowcountry Pet Wellness Clinic. I called during business hours on a Saturday and their phone was busy for hours, couldn't even get the voicemail. I called again on another date and got their voicemail, since they have limited business hours I left them a message. Several days later, they left me a message stating that the closest appointment they had was 20 days from that date. I wasn't in a hurry to have the cat fixed since she had one more shot to get. So I was fine with waiting, then a week before the cat is supposed to get her shot they leave me a message stating that they need to change the date because the vet wouldn't be coming back into town from vacation until the appointment date. The message only stated that the animal needed to not eat or drink and she needed to be dropped off between 8-8:30am. Now keep in mind that I never actually talked to someone, it was always messages on my cellphone. Since my boyfriend and I work a normal job, we had to be at work and couldn't drop the cat off. So my Mom drove from Summerville, to Goose Creek (where we live) and then off to North Charleston all to get there by 8:35am. They told her that they might not be able to fix the cat because she was late (5 MINUTES!!)! The ladies at the front desk were rude and unhelpful. So my Mom left after she had been on the road since 7 am in order to get the cat to her appointment. She called back to talk with a manager or the vet, they said that no one was available. So my Mom told them her side of the situation, and they stated that they didn't tell her to leave. What was she supposed to do, leave our cat there all day hungry and thirsty only to not get fixed. No thank you! We called the vet that my parents use (Dr. Reynolds) and he said he would take the cat that morning and fix her for us. The cheapness of Lowcountry Pet is NOT worth the hassel and rudeness of the staff.
