This place is amazing Dr. Brown, Constance and all the girls up front were so good. We carried a stray my daughter found in she was in bad shape starved and mange with no hair. They immediately jumped in and started working on her. We went from this to a fully healthy little girl. She is now a member of our family forever.

The staff here were very nice. They helped my family cat of 12 years. They also still had the records of her (Butterscotch) from 10 years ago. I had previously been going to Riverview Animal Hospital on 115 in Wilkesboro. The staff there is also a nice but sometimes they are very rude about what they're trying to do with your animals and treat you like you don't treat your animals well. I will be moving all of my 10 cats to State Road Animal Hospital for further Medical needs.

Just moved to the area and this is definitely going to be my new vet. It's a 30-minute drive, but it was worth it. They were able to give me some advice before I could bring my dog in, worked my dog in faster than the competition, spent time actually thoroughly checking my dog's health and interacting with her, have good explanations regarding her treatment, and didn't overcharge for their services or the medications. Best vet experience I can remember having in a long time. At least one of those elements is usually missing.

My first visit to this location. Clean modern facility with multiple exam rooms. Not only was the staff courteous, but also very knowledgeable and went above and beyond to comfort the animals and the owners as well! Highly recommend!

Compassionate, knowledgeable staff. They took their time with my very nervous older dog which helped him relax during his visit. The next time we visited, he was more comfortable. I'm grateful to have found this wonderful vet clinic!

Awesome people and saw my dog when he needed to be seen. His usual vet wouldn't see him for almost a week and he was unable to walk on 1 of his feet. Guess State Road will be his new vet from now on. Prices were not bad as well. Thank you very much for caring as much as you do.
