N	Nate Brooks on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Been taking my pets here for awhile, however new staff turn over with erragant young vets. It's all about making a dollar, not about customers. My animal required her prescription filled but they wanted new bloodwork. That's fine.and completed. Then they wanted a full check up, that's fine but wont fill the prescription until after check up in a week. Will have run out of meds by then (and they were the ones who prescribed them). Very disappointed.
A	Alicia Okonkwo on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Dr. Alyssa was wonderful with my nervous rescue. So happy to have found this clinic.
Z	Zach Montgomery on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beyond grateful for the entire team at VCA Riverbend. All so helpful, accommodating and have your pets best interests at heart. Highly recommend this location to anyone looking.
K	Kara Sallows on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Just saw Dr. Mackie today and she was great with our aging kitty, thank you! *saw Dr Mackie again, she's great as usual!
J	Jennifer Hurlbert on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Brought my kitty into be neutered, it seemed like a routine operation. As the vet called me through the day. I became nervous that my kitty wasn't doing well. He had a fever and they kept him longer than expected. Then when I came to pick him up the front staff were laughing at his suffering. As he ran circles in the kennel and was obviously terrified. They continued to joke about him being traumatized each time the would enter the back room. He had wounds on his toe pads. And has general behavior issues even after a month of recovery. He hisses at my roommates and attacks my senior cat now which he didn't do before. Not happy with the staff who laughed at his pain and stress while in the clinic. Not to mention the price tag. Holy smokes it was double the price as anywhere else
B	Barry Huddlestun on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Any Vet who reports a person to the SPCA about an animal that is a senior is saying they should be put down. Because they are irresponsible toward the owners intended good will to care for their animal. If they don't advise it, they have no right to report anything. Animal husbandry is the owners responsibility. A Vet can't say an animal in its final life stages should have thousands of dollars spent on the animal and report an owner to the SPCA. MOST Irresponsible Vet I've ever heard of. Disgusting
A	Antonia Bernard on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We recently had to put our much-loved 17 year old cat to sleep. All of the staff at VCA were incredibly compassionate and kind, and explained every aspect of the procedure in the detail we needed to feel comfortable.
K	Karly Tarney on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The vet assistants/front desk staff are very friendly and patient. The vet themselves (we've seen two) are knowledgable and know how to make our anxious doggo comfortable. The reason I've given this vet a 4/5 is because the space is very small, the prices are on the expensive end, and the examination room is not cleaned after each animal visit. This is problematic because I have cat allergies and my doggo sits on the same floor they do, picking up their hair. A quick sweep and spray would work wonders for people who have other animal allergies or even their pets who may have allergies to other animals.
