We are full time RV'ers. We were in myrtle beach when our 20 year old Papillion got sick. We brought him to the Veterinary Clinic of MB. They got us right in. They were super good with our pup. Very responsive, gentle, and caring. They explained the tests and results thoroughly. They even called me back to advise They were reimbursing me for an erroneous fee that I would never have caught - so honest too!

Amazing staff and such caring doctors. We would not choose another place for our two dogs. We've also recently started using their boarding facilities and absolutely love the staff and space for our dogs.

During my family's vacation the week of the 3rd we had to bring our dog to them to be seen. Sadly they didn't take walk-ins but as soon as they heard what was going on they started a chart and took her straight back. Not once did my parents get an attitude or were they rude. Sympathy is all they received. The lady's who work there are so sweet and… caring and wanted to do nothing but help our sweet dog Noel. Sadly we ended up saying our goodbyes and putting her down and still got nothing but Sympathy and complete understanding. On a scale from 1%-100% it's 100% all day. highly highly recommend

They literally saved my dogs life! My dog was a patient at another clinic and was hours from dying. I called them to get their opinion & they told me to bring her there immediately. Even knowing that I had a small limited budget when I pulled up they were waiting for me, rushed her to the back, examined her & started treatment. For the next 23 days they had me bring my dog there at 7:30am and pick her up at 6:30pm. Besides being brilliant Doctors, they put my dogs health before ANYTHING. All the Dr's collaborated and nursed her back to health. If I had kept my dog where she was or gone anywhere
