Archdale Animal Hospital

I have taken Rosco to Dr. George for several years. We have always been pleased with his care when boarding and pleased when Rosco had surgery. I feel Dr. George saved us money by combining surgery with teeth cleaning. Dr. George has time to talk to the families to explain options. My family is very pleased with care Rosco has received.

Awful Care!



I think that Dr. George is the worst Vet doctor I've ever been to. I took my cat to him after it had a terrible accident where his tail was broken and separated from the bottom part of the spine. The tail was too swollen to really get a good idea of the damage. After seeing that I was obviously in pain about my cat, he continued to tell me that the prognosis for my cat is horrible and that I should just put him down because he would be a headache to take care of, and that with his schedule he certainly wouldn't want to take care of a cat in his condition. And he also let me know that no one else would want Sammy. What the heck do I care if no one else would want him?!! He is my cat!! But here is where it gets worse.......



I'm grieving over my cat and the news that Dr. George told me to just kill him. I called around and spoke to a Vet at Long Animal hospital that was very caring and told me what to look for in my cat that would tell me whether he would be able to put through or not. One of the things that Dr. George said was that he does not think that Sammy would regain the use of his bowels, and it would build up in his intestines so for that reson I should kill him. Well, the next morning after getting his records from Dr. Georges office I was on my way to have my cat put down thinking that he would not be able to use his bowels, but as I was driving I smelt something and realized that Sammy had moved his bowels. Which according to Dr. George was inpossible with his injury. It's a good thing that Sammy moved his bowels at that moment because if he had not, I would have put down a healthy cat. Not only that but he has been doing better since he has been home, and it's only been a few days.



I would not recommend this hospital to anyone. If you are someone that wants a professional, precise, and completely accurate diagnosis of your animal, DO NOT go to this hospital, and DO NOT let Dr. George examine your pet. This has been my very horrible experience here at this hospital. I will be taking Sammy to Richland animal hospital for the rest of his care, I'll never return to this hospital again. And I get the feeling that the staff are just as rude, and unprofessional as the Dr. was.

I have been taking my two rescued beagles there for several years now. Dr George will stand and chat and tend to the dogs properly and advise of anything necessary. The prices are very affordable and they have had the whole surgery renovated this last year. It is clean and sterile and the staff are great.

I absolutely love this place. They are the most compassionate people. Even on the sign in form for new patients they ask "is this a pet or a part of your family". They really helped me out alot. Working with a very tight budget can be a real headache, especially if your best friend is hurt and needs immediate attention. They were able to work with me and get my baby fixed up without spending a fortune. Thanks Dr. George and crew!!!
