I have to respond to a review referring to the lack of diversity of the staff here. I have to wonder about her judgement of staff performance when her assumptions about diversity were so erroneous. I know the diversity she seeks- I, too, am a POC who rejoices in representation and diversity. I am also the mother of one of those "non diverse" staff members. If someone's criteria for judging race is so limited (speaking of expanding your views on diversity), then I'm forced to question your judgement regarding your visit. You never did mention how they treated your "uncooperative" dog. Did they

Terrible customer service. My dog's health required routine care of a specialist and Carney became secondary just for urinary incontinence management and well visits. They refused to contact the specialist to obtain records related to recent blood work and would withhold medication refills requiring unnecessary visits, stress and duplicate costs related to care. Not the type of care anyone should have to deal with when a dog is in its final stages of life.

My dog had a appointment yesterday 10/22/21
Just a check up along with a shot and nail clipping. Even with her being very anxious Dr. Andrews and his team were absolutely amazing. Definitely recommending him to others and will always request him!! He made me and my husband feel 1000% comfortable with him and answered any and every question we had!!

The receptionists are very warm and inviting, but Vet Tech-Mary Kate exhibited a horrible disposition. Thank goodness for Vet Tech-Laura for buffering her client interactions.
Dr. Andrew, Veterinarian, is not very personable. He will look you in the face and not speak. I had to get an annual physical exam for my dog, prior to his bloodwork. Well, b/c my dog was not very cooperative, he did not render the physical examyet, I was still charged the exam fee of $35. There seems to be an over abundance of vet techs, but there is only one veterinarian. That veterinarian is Dr. Andrew. There are

Carney Animal Hospital is the best vet I've ever been to, and I've been to dozens over the years in this area. Although wait times can be long, it is testament to their impeccable service and dedication to the clients. There's no place better where I can trust them fully with my animals care. Would recommend their services to any friends or family. It's about an hour and a half drive for me now, but I still go there for procedures because of the level of trust and patient care I've come to expect and value.
