We had an appointment booked for the 15th, assuming that's today not next month. This was told to us twice. We get there and the lady up Front said your appointment is in April. WOW what a waste of everyone's time. But twice?

Top notch care EVERY TIME at Lakewood Animal Health Center. Staff are helpful and caring. Wish I could give Dr. Andrea Eyler 100 's! She is incredibly knowledgeable and thorough. She is unhurried and completely present during each appointment. Also, she respects my desire to treat our dog naturally when possible so it feels like a team approach, which I value and appreciate. Our little yet elderly girl hates going to the vet (anxiety reigns), but she LOVES Dr. Eyler!

They seem to have high prices for generic medications (like 4x cost of the same drug for humans), but otherwise I'm really pleased. They recognized our dog's critical condition and worked us into the schedule as needed. They've been very supportive of our choices as we navigated a very rare and life-threatening disease in our dog, where other vet offices scolded us for trying to keep our dog alive.

We had very collaborative discussions with the vet about treatment plans, even when we wanted to take a different direction. They've given us an open invitation to bring our dog in for basic recurring treatment (IV fluids) at our own discretion, which is nice because it's cheaper than paying to see the doctor every single time.

I Love Lakewood Animal Hospital, from making my appointment to bringing Foxy in, it's always a seamless. My Foxy anxiety, but they are always kind to her and makes her feel at ease.

Absolutely the best veterinarians and staff! Everyone there is all about taking the best possible care of your pet! We have taken our dogs here for years and have seen all the veterinarians. Each one is knowledgeable and caring. Both our dogs have had simple check up visits, surgery, and everything in between and for every visit, no matter the situation, they take excellent care of us all. Dr. Eyler and the staff took our dachshund off the surgery table and to the shelter room with them when a tornado came close by and sirens were going off. Again, I highly recommend them and appreciate the veterinarians and all of the staff!

Lakewood Animal Health Center has been the best decision I ever made for my dog. The quality of care and service is exceptional. Update: I've now met Dr. Golladay, Dr. Dyer, and Dr. Eyler through vet appointments for my dog and my girlfriends dogs. They have all impressed me beyond belief. The level of care given, the willingness to answer questions and work with you, and the supporting staff of vet techs, receptionists, and vet assistants have all been stellar and I could not recommend enough. I'm honestly worried that I will move and never be able to find a vet that meets the standard set by Lakewood.

Dr. Eyler & the whole Lakewood team are amazing! She is so kind and was very compassionate. She did an amazing job with my furkitty, Precious. Everyone at Lakewood are very attentive not only to your furbaby but to your concerns. They are very thorough and not only treat the existing concern, but give you health recommendations for future visits. The vets & staff are all friendly, personable, knowledgeable, and very caring & kind. I wholeheartedly recommend Lakewood to anyone looking for an excellent vet's office.

I was visiting family and my dog got himself in an accident and needed a cast on his leg. They were completely booked for the day but they still managed to fit my dog in the schedule. On top of that, I never felt rushed and they took the time to explain what I needed to when I got home. It was much cheaper than I expected and they went above and beyond for me. The staff is amazing.

My older dog tends to be shy and scared of vet clinic surroundings. He doesn't act that way at this clinic! The staff here are so friendly and gentle towards him that he actually tries to come out of his shell to say hello and maybe get a treat. The veterinarians spend time with you and your animal during your appointment. So you don't feel like they are just trying to get you out of the room for the next patient.

I've had two surgeries done here, a spay and a tumor removal. Of course the surgeries were scary, but they called me and explained exactly how the surgery went and gave me the chance to ask questions. They even sent me a text image of my older dog when he woke up from his surgery! It really makes me feel like my pups were in good hands. When tests results come in, they called to talk to me about treatments and options.

Over all, I can't recommend this vet clinic enough. My dogs feel safer here. I feel like my dogs are safe here. The staff is friendly, gentle, and patient. I'm very thankful that they are here!
