I had a very good experience at Catawba Vet Hospital. What a clean, delightful and happy place to bring our loved pets. Everyone greeted us like we were family. My dog was never nervous there. WEll here is my story. My dog and I traveled from Arizona to visit a friend - Marblehead, OH. Somehow during the travels, my dog had a problem with one dew claw (terrible tear down to the skin) . I called the vet and she took him in right away. Within 5 minutes explained what needed to be done and sent my friend and I on our way for 2 hours so she could take care of the problem right away (he was in pain). The Veterinarian (cant remember her name) is a true pet whisper! My dog was very comfortable with her. She is no nonsense professional and obviously loves animals and her job. She did not try and sell me anything extra, did not suggest x rays, bloodwork, ultra sound, IV, over night etc. After an examination, Rusty was sedated and the nail was removed. While under sedation, she trimmed all of my dogs nails and secreted his glands. He was put on anti-inflammatory for 5 days and 2 weeks antibiotic. I thought for sure the bill would be like $300-$500! I was pleasantly surprised when I got the bill for $140, which included the two prescribed medications. She also included very detailed follow up care and detailed what was done in the office. The doctor even followed up with a phone call the next day! By day three I noticed some changes in the surgical area and called the vet. The doctor actually called me back and assured me that what I was seeing was the healing process. Well it has been almost 3 weeks and Rusty is doing great. This was the very best vet experience ever. I highly recommend. It is a bonus that rates and fees are so reasonable.

Well my 16 year old dog was lifeless. I couldnt get hardly any response from him. I live a stones throw from this Vet but have never used them. I called before noon and they said I could come in at 2:00. I got there about 10 till two. Had to fill out some paperwork you might expect with a credit card application. Social security number, drivers license number etc. Waited 25 minutes and nothing just the tech playing on the computer. Another lady they knew came in with her dog . Now another tech came out and took this lady and her dog back. No one ever said a word to me except fill out this paperwork. Another girl came in and thats when I decided to take my paperwork back and leave. As I was leaving the one tech was carrying out dog food to put in a car. Even then no one said anything just looked at me once as I drove off to another veterinary. If they didnt want to help my dog say so. I wasted 2 1/2 hours I could have used for my dogs treatment elsewhere. I never did see a actual veterinarian.

Dr. Lenke and everybody have been fantastic! I will admit sometimes I can be a little bit of a crazy cat lady when it comes to my kittys health. I can be pesky with questions and concerns. Never have any of the wonderful staff there made me feel bad for that. They handle my questions with patience and kindness. But most of all, they are so good with Aria. Watching them with her makes me feel reassured that she is in good hands. They are so friendly and welcoming, I am really lucky to have such a great place right up the road from me. I appreciate all you do at this Veterinary Hospital. Thank you for taking such good care of Aria, and thank you for making sure I didnt drive myself crazy worrying about her! I couldnt have asked for a better team to trust with my "furbaby"!

I love everything about Catawba Veterinary Hospital. The front desk staff & the techs are efficient & kind. Dr. Lenke is great, patient & explains everything well including offering options especially when costs are rising. I recently had a very positive experience with one of the other Vets working there, Dr Ronie. She was amazing. Extremely kind & compassionate. Gives a complete exam, was very gentle with my old feeble cat, and gave some positive suggestions on how to keep him happy & healthy. The following day I got an email from the staff checking up on how my cats were doing on their new treatment plan. I have nothing but cudos for everyone.

Our experience with CVH is very positive. Our cat evidently is rather paranoid or something. He has anxiety, I guess. The vet examined him for everything that may be wrong, but it just was anxiety. I feel confident that the vet and staff did everything possible to make sure that Onyx is in good physical health. They are knowledgeable about nearly every type of animal with the exception of birds and snakes, I believe. I trust them empirically with my animals health. Our dog is happy with them as well.

We spend summers on the peninsula and recently had an injury emergency with one of our dogs, Riley. The staff was wonderful! Very kind and compassionate. Riley was seen immediately and given a very thorough exam. I was informed that someone is on call daily and would be happy to see him after hours if the need arose. He was much better within 48 hours and we were able to enjoy our time at the Lake thanks to the outstanding care at CVH.

We spend our summers in Port Clinton and have had need of veterinary services for our cat on several occasions. Whether it was for another cat bite or symptoms of an urinary tract infection, Dr. Lenke was available to see her in a timely fashion and was both thorough and gentle with his exam. He is very good about presenting options/alternatives when they exist. I am so glad he is here!

I have always brought our animals there from time I was a young child with my first dog (many years ago). The girls did what they could to get out sick furry four legged child in without an appointment. They are always courteous and care so much for their patients. We will always take our furry family members to Catawba Veterinary Hospital. Thank you for what you do

What caring people at Catawba Veterinary Hospital. Took our cat there for first time due to her being sick, they treated us and her like we had been coming there for years. The out come was not good for our cat of 15 years. Dr. Lenke and staff were so kind and caring. We highly recommend Catawba Vet. Again, thank you Dr. Lenke and staff.

We have a summer home on the islands and when our dog needed to be seen in an emergency Catawba Vet Hospital was able to see him quickly and make not only him feel better but his owners too! I would highly recommend the friendly, efficient hospital to anyone! Thank you for all you did for us and Snitch!!
