(Because the pictures that I originally attached with this review some how got removed, weird!) It really saddens me that my dog had to experience this. Sophie had been going to this vet for all most a year when I dropped her off for a hotel stay on a Thursday and was scheduled to pick her up the following Monday. I received a call from the vet early that Monday morning (the day that I was scheduled to pick my dog up) and was informed that Sophie had been hurt and that they were prescribing her antibiotics for her paw.
I was in shock and a bit distraught because when I dropped my dog off she was fine! Sophie was not hurt at all and she had just had her nails clipped the week prior by the same vet and they mentioned nothing about her paw. When I arrived that Monday to pick her up they took 15 minutes to have the Dr. come and explain why they were prescribing Sophie medication and then insisted she got hurt in my care.
They also failed to inform me of the additional cost tacked on for the medication that was prescribed to Sophie. The front desk person just shouted my total was $178 and didn't provide a print out of charges like they normally do. I had to ask for a print out. This whole experience was terrible! They showed no consideration for me or my dog and what they had just put me or her through! I am very dissatisfied and will not recommend anyone to them nor will she be back! Very traumatic experience for us both

They are not very good. Just a money grabber business. They kept charging us for flea medication but would never send the medication to us in the mail. They also overcharged us 3 different times. My wife and I decided to send our dog here for special care to make sure our pup was healthy. It was a giant waste of money and I highly question their expertise. THEY JUST WANT YOUR MONEY!

I was able to get an appointment here short notice, which is what drew me to Allied. The vet, vet techs, and most of the front desk staff were all very nice! They loved my dog and he seemed to really love them. However, after spending a good amount of money for extensive bloodwork & x-rays, he was misdiagnosed as having a tissue injury. He actually ended up having cancer, which we confirmed 6 weeks later at a different vet.
While misdiagnoses can happen at any vet, it's very upsetting because of all the visits, radiology, blood work, etc he received here. A different vet examined him, xrayed him, and diagnosed him within a day which gave us answers we had been looking for, for almost 2 months from Allied. Also, in case this applies to you- this vet is unable/unwilling to reach out to 3rd party pharmacies.
They may provide you a prescription, but most 3rd party pet pharmacies ask that the doctors office reach out directly, so that wasn't helpful. I've read that some vets just don't outsource medications, but luckily I've found one now that will.

We changed veterinarian's and came to Allied Animal Hospital based on the client reviews. The staff's interactions and his medical care was superb. They covered all of Chewey's needs. I believe they are honest, very dedicated to his care and are sincere. The staff was amazing before and after his care. They answered so many questions and have gained my trust. I highly recommend changing to this veterinarian's practice. So does Chewey, he's usually apprehensive to leave but he was happy to go into the unknown.

I have not been to this facility. Just called to get prices for our cat. The lady that I spoke with was very friendly, courteous and professional. She said that she would call me back shortly to give me the total price with breakdown for each. Now that was fantastic. Very few businesses will call you back with information you requested.

They take very good care of my dog. I feel their prices are a bit high in comparison with nearby vets. But they are very nice and caring to my pet and they are very responsive and communicative when I have left my pet for treatment. They are in direct contact with the hospital in case more specialized care is needed.
