Another Dr. Lloyd devotee here. I would not trust my 3 cats to anyone else (though Dr. Katz is also an amazing vet). I even planned my house purchase based on proximity to the offices of North DeKalb Vets. As everyone has said, Dr. Lloyd takes his time and is extremely thorough with each exam, is knowledgeable on every up-to-date treatment for seemingly every problem a kitty can have, and truly treats each animal like one of his own. My eldest cat hates pretty much everyone on the planet, but when she hears Dr. Lloyds voice, she comes rushing out of her carrier to greet him. Not only is Dr. Lloyd great with the cats, hes also great with people. Ive had more than one mini-breakdown during our time with him, and he is sincerely compassionate and caring. I think these qualities, along with his unshakable calm, really do rub off on everyone. The front desk staff and vet techs are great as well, always kind and considerate, even when they are crazy busy and under the gun. You can count on them to work you in if youve got an emergency. I couldnt recommend this clinic more, especially Dr. Lloyd for your cats.

North Dekalb Veterinary Clinic is the only place I would take my fur child to now. I went to 4 different clinics in a year, and they were the only ones to differentiate between hair ball hacks and chronic asthma. I had a rescue that was devastatingly ill at 5 weeks. Ive never had a cat on my own and certainly not one that sick. Luckily, a few places were able to treat her initial illnesses BUT no one was willing to calm her down enough to listen to her lungs. Finally, someone at Lifelines Thrift store suggested i take her to the take her to "The Cat Whisper" at North Dekalb. Kittis not easily won over, but his patience with her was key. Now, she sees an another amazing doctor there that is able to provide tips to prevent episodes. Absolutely love everyone there. even their receptionists are helpful.

I have worked with Dr Bell and Dr Katz - for emergencies and for regular checkups. Both make me feel like Sylvi is the absolute most important patient in the world...and whatever care she needs, she will get. If she needs something beyond their expertise, they will make sure she has the right specialist. And the care doesnt end when she leaves. Both have called me after Ive left - later that day as well as the next day - to check in on her and see how shes doing. Ive had surgeons who havent looked after me as thoroughly as theyve looked after her. Sylvi is now 10 and over the years Ive moved several times and shes seen several vets. I couldnt recommend anyone more highly than these folks. I put my childs life in their hands and they never let me down. Theres no other vet that even comes close.

Took Diesel for her first visit, Turbo for a claw trimming. Two sadly overweight beagles. So know this - they are very, very good, caring, and know what they are doing but be sure to ASK about PRICES especially if you are on limited funds or fixed income!!! Their prices are very very fair. I could not sing their praises enough. The vet was super kind about everything, and gave samples of something that was needed which did save money. So yes, I highly recommend them. I do like them better than Village Vets but that is just my personal opinion. Hope this helps in any decision! I do repeat - they are fantastic and the wonderful vet that saw Turbo and Diesel gave me a follow up call and left a kind, caring message for me. You will really, really like them. You have my word!

Most of us pet parents would agree we are pretty protective of our 4-legged babies, so finding a great vet is a daunting task in a city as large as Atlanta. North Dekalb has met all of our demands, plus exceeded our expectations with service and quality. In addition to spending the time it takes to go over everything with you about your pet while youre in the clnic, they have a service where you can speak with the vets after hours in an emergency...its extremely rare to find vets that are willing to offer that level of service these days so that should tell you how these doctors go above and beyond - they truly care about your pets and their health and well-being. Great place, highly recommended!

We love North Dekalb Vet! They have taken excellent care of all our pets over the past 15 years. Weve had senior cats to a terminally ill dog to an eight-week-old puppy, and they have loved and cared for all of them. They will do everything in their power to take care of your babies. And when the time comes to send your beloved pet over the rainbow bridge, they do so with as much love and care as they have given your pets in the best of health. They share the hugs and tears under the happiest and saddest of circumstances. I wouldnt want to take our pets anywhere else.

Dr. Lloyd (I refer to as the cat whisperer) is the best! I have gone through 3 cats over the past 14 years with this clinic! I completely trust my cats with Dr. Lloyds care. He is very knowledgeable, patient, compassionate, and empathetic, you can tell a true cat lover. I never felt rushed through, he always took the time to explain everything to me. The front desk staff, especially Aileen are very personable and flexible. I have had many emergency/last minute drop-ins that were accommodated and help put me at ease. I highly recommend this clinic!

For 10 plus years, Dr. Katz and his staff have taken wonderful care of me and my dogs. They are professional and compassionate when it comes to animals. After each visit or treatment there is always a follow up call to make sure everything is alright. When Angel (one of my dogs) was unable to walk, Dr. Katzs staff member arranged for my dog to be vaccinated in the parking lot, so Angel wouldnt be inconvenienced. That is the type of great service Dr. Katz and his staff deliver time and time again...Thank you so much!

Dr. Katz and the folks at North DeKalb Veterinary Clinic at the BEST. Ive been taking my dogs there for more years than I can remember (ten plus) for annual visits and shots to emergency care when one is sick and I am worried out of my mind. My dogs have come from local shelters and there is no telling how they might behave. They love Dr. Katz too. Everyone is caring and friendly. The After Hours service has saved me many restless nights too. I wouldnt trust my dogs any place else.

We have been using DeKalb Veterinary Clinic and more specifically Max Katz as our vet for more years than I can remember. Max and his staff have helped thru the basics and the worse of our pet needs. He and his staff are a group of very caring and knowledgeable people. He will always call after a visit to see how our pet is doing. His direction and advise have helped give our pets longer and healthier lives. I would recommend DeKalb Veterinary Clinic to any pet owner.
