My friends dog was injured and ended up going to this vet after being referred by another vet. Well our experience had been horrible. He ended up passing away over night after being left alone all night. Then trying to get them to explain what exactly happened to him what was his cause of death etc has been a nightmare we keep having to call to find out things because no one ever told my friend she was welcomed to come up there and speak with the vet until after I called and asked if she could. They didnt even send a sympathy card (which most vets do. I have worked at vets and have seen this first hand and have signed the cards) they only sent their bill. Then they didnt even advise her she could get his paw prints in molding and ink I had to call and ask which then they informed me they were out so I had to go buy the modeling clay myself and bring it up there. Then I called to have the bill explained to my friend and the lady Beverly that answered the phone was extremely rude and insensitive. Then when I spoke to the Dr he pretty much defended her actions and attitude by saying well shes just frustrated that different people have called a lot asking questions about him. Well maybe we wouldnt have to if we were explained and treated properly the first time.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR PET HERE. I just wanted a grooming for my pet cat. After understandably asking for vaccine proof I informed them I didnt have it but my regular vet could fax it over which they agreed to. I had all her vaccines done at oglethorpe and another at Madison county. They first told me oglethorpe had no record of rabies vaccines. After I called myself oglethorpe myself, they told me they indeed had my rabies vaccine done and could provide proof. Then after telling them the other could be obtained from madison county I left the pet with them under the assumption that she would only be groomed. They called me later and informed me they had to do a physical exam and distemper vaccine which would be 65 extra dollars. They were very argumentative from the start. I informed them id be willing to pay half since I never agreed to it and noone informed me it was done until afterwards and I shouldnt be responsible for it. They told me they would have to hold my pet until I paid them for everything. Clearly this is a place that cares nothing about pets or their owners and just want as mucj of your money as possible. Now Im having to file a claim and report with BBB, American veterinary association, and state general inspector.

I have been taking my dogs to Companion Animal Hospital for almost a decade and a half, and I wont go anywhere else. They have always treated me & my dogs with expert care and attention. The staff is upbeat, friendly & prompt. The doctors are knowledgeable and treat me & my dogs with great respect and kindness. When I was a starving college student, they worked with me on my bill & determined a plan of care for my dog that was something I could handle. They are not in business just for the money but for the love of animals. Great job Companion Animal!!

I have to say that Im pretty surprised to see any negative reviews on here- my experiences with Companion have always gone above and beyond my expectations. The first time I came here my dog was injured and they worked me in at the last minute, which I really appreciated. Ive always found everyone from the desk staff to the groomers to the vet to be very kind and informative, as well as cost effective compared to other vets I used to go to in Athens. Its a little out of the way for me, but Ill happily be taking my dog here for as long as I live in Athens.

We were treated with the utmost care and compassion when we brought our wonderful old dog, Scooter, in for his last visit. We felt as though we were among friends. Dr. Dan explained our options and sadly, we felt it best for Scooter, to let him go. Dr. Dan and the staff made that sad experience as bearable as possible. They cared for Scooter with kindness and gentleness and showed us great love and compassion. I will always be thankful for the thoughtfulness that was shown to us.

We recently took our cat for his first visit at Companion Animal Hospital. All I can say is I am extremely impressed with the facility, staff, and the care that was demonstrated during our visit. This is one of the cleanest and most professional veterinary offices I have ever seen. We were seen almost immediately. Our cat saw Dr. Brooke and really liked him! He was extremely caring and thorough with his exam. I am so glad to have found such a wonderful place to bring our pet!

Dr. Weaver and her team have been seeing my dog for 13 years now and have always done an amazing job. They are prompt, caring, attentive, and kind, and I would recommend taking your pet there any day. In addition to being open and available as needed, they have also been very kind to answer my questions over the phone whenever I have called and have always looked towards both my dogs health and my bank account. Thanks so much for everything youve done!

I cannot brag on this vet enough. I have German Shepherd that has seen Companion Animal since she was 8 weeks old. They have always gone out of their way to make every visit a positive experience with squeeze cheese and lots of love. Now I have a wonderfully behaved adult shepherd that loves vets office trips! So thankful for the staff here.

We love Dr. Weaver and the staff at Companion. They were great when our female cocker spaniel was diagnosed with cancer and had to go through chemotherapy (done at UGA, but blood work was done at Companion on the off weeks) and when it was time for us to let her go. We also love Kasey, the groomer. We wont go to anyone else! :)

Outstanding grooming, my dogs have never looked so good, Kasey, the groomer took the time to meet with me and discuss options. Dogs were very well tempered, unlike other grooming experiences. Highly reccomend!

They are great I got a 4 week ago kitten and they helped me with everything to care for her; when my older cat got sick they made room for him asap. I will not go to anythere vet for anything.

Theyre always so friendly and accommodating. The staff is very knowledgeable and the doctor is the BEST! My four legged kiddo loves it there too.

Misty Jackson

These are some truly great people who obviously care about the animals more than anything else. You cant go wrong here.
