They were great...until they weren't. I give my dog her own vaccines and Six Forks Animal Hospital acted like they were astonished at this. I understand if they can't accommodate that, but they have been rude to me ever since I've told them. I have a medical background and I've been trained to give human shots so I never saw the harm in giving my dog her shots.

Love Dr. Price, but with aging animals I want to be in there when my pets are evaluated. She still will not let the humans paying the vet bills in. We will no longer be using her services. We will find a vet who allows the humans in even if we go to a mobile vet. Sorry Dr. Price, it is time to open. People are willing to wear masks and will gladly do in order to be their for their fur babies.

Love the female vet here. Takes wonderful care of our cats. A little on the pricey side but very convenient location.

This used to be my vet office prior to moving out of the area. They did a great job with my pets. I didn't use it but their boarding area looks very cozy, if you need a pet "hotel"!
