Overall

Incredibly rude and unprofessional. Also lied about what my options were (grew up with a veterinarian and around a dozen other vets, went on more farm calls than i can count). Called this vet about doing health papers on my horse and scheduled an appointment earlier that week. When i called the day prior to the appointment to ask a question i was transfered to the vet who instantly cut me off and explained in no uncertain words that there was no way I had an appointment as he scheduled them all himself. I explained my conversation with his staff three days earlier and he continued to cut me off and fight with me about it. Finally I said I wasnt sure where the disconnect was but regardless of whether or not I had an appointment would he be able to do a certificate for my horse. He asked where my horse was tried to tell me my barn didn't call him, which I for the fifth time explained I was the one who had called and was handling this. He the proceeded to cheerfully tell me that since I wasn't there to sign the health certificate personally he couldn't do it. Then he hung up on me. First of this is not first time shipping a horse and getting a health certificate, secondly you can have an agent ie. Barn manager or trainer sign or, shocker, in this age of technology you can *gasp* email it and have them sign and email the certificate back!!! Overall could not believe how unprofessional and rude this man was. Called FLW and asked he be taken taken off the recommended off post vets.

Didn't stain my dogs eye and treated him with steroid antibiotic ointment. Dog didn't get better, returned again and got same ointment.



After 4 months, tried a new Vet. Vet stained his eye with dye and showed me an ulcer in the eye. Steroid ointment shouldn't be used on eye ulcers.The new Vet said that all animal's eyes should be stained for ulcer before treatment. It cost $7 for the stain.



I have been a fan of this no nonsense, down to earth Vet, but we switched.

I brought two dogs to be under his care. The staff was utterly amazing and very nice. The doctor was informative no fluff type guy that explained what I needed to hear!

Overall

Took my cat there to be declawed when he was a kitten, he just spent 5 hours in surgery to have corrective declawing done because the vet didn't do it properly and the nails were growing back and my cat was in a lot of pain!!

Dr.S and his staff are far more comforting/ informative than anyone I've seen or talked to while seeking help for my young pup. We adopted from a local shelter and one day later we had to bring him to emergency care where they suggested, after we payed an insane amount for admittance/ a parvo test, that we try and send the dog back to the shelter get it put down or pay over six hundred dollars to keep him over night. ONE NIGHT. We took him home after paying about three hundred dollars for him to be hydrated and medicated with hopes of finding an alternative vet. The first place I called didn't want us because we had never been there before, the second was on holiday hours, the third was Pulaski. They accepted right away, Dr.S explained to us the statistics of our dog's survival less than 50% and told us that he would keep him and try as hard as humanly possible while keeping in mind the hours he's actually in his office. When I left the office I was prepared for anything unlike when I left the emergency clinic crying...yes Dr.S is blunt but it's because he has to be. Not all animals make it.

I called for an unscheduled walk-in appointment during normal business hours for a red ring on my dog's back leg. I was concerned that it could be ringworm and wanted to have it checked out right away since we have a toddler in the house. The vet looked at the spot for about 30 seconds and said that it looked like a tick bite that would go away on its own. He then turned around and entered information into the computer while I stood there holding my dog and my daughter wondering whether or not the appointment was over. When I realized the appointment was over, I walked to the front desk where I was charged $40 for roughly a 5 minute appointment.

I Love this vet clinic

We are new to the area and I chose this vet because of his "rough around the edges" reputation. I find that he, along with people of his mannor; are very honest, helpful and caring. Unfortunatlly those people being honest and rough or blunt, can come off as "rude," although I don't agree that he is rude. Regardless of what you hear from someone on their opinion of any matter; always see for yourself. I take my three dogs of all different sizes ; ) there any time they need care.



I have NEVER left feeling like my questions went unanswered. In fact my Great Dane is afraid of men with facial hair, he happens to have facial hair; so he took the time to get to know my four legged baby. Instead of making him feel trapped in the room he eased his way into shutting the door and on to doing the exam etc. Most vets wouldn't even consider that, they would have the in and out, "Get it done" type of mannor.



If you are "soft" or fragile in the feelings department then you may have a different opinion. However consider the fact that he is a VET no a HUMAN Doctor and he may communicate better with animals because most people are rude, inconsiderate and judgmental; unlike animals. He doesn't sugar coat it and doesn't seem to give a lick what anyone thinks. That's my kind of "people" but if you don't appreciate honesty and the fact thate he's not out to empty your pocket book then you may not feel the same. The bottom line is; if you want what is best for your pets, then I highly recommend this Vet clinic.



However if you can't handle someone who is very busy coming off a little "short" or "condisending" ( as someone else said in their review)..then find someone else. If you only meet him the first time remember this is a military town and he sees so many people on a one time basis that, he might not consider being personal. He has a rough voice and may come off like a Dr. House (so to speak) but he is the best I have ever been to. He never runs a large amount of tests or does the "trouble shooting" approach, like most vets; intstead he gives it to you straight...



Obviously he cares about what is best for all your pets and their needs, that's what's important.

If you're looking for fast and effective service I would recommend this place. The staff was friendly and helpful.

I recently went with my new puppies and I felt they received great care.

The Vet seemed a little pressed for time, its understandable being that he seems to be the only vet there and had a lot of furry customers waiting on him; despite being busy he took the time to answer any questions and concerns we had. Though sometimes the way he answered was a little condescending, as if we knew absolutely nothing about dogs, he still took the time to answer.

Albeit, I've been to clinics that were a tad more cleaner and had little treats for your pets, but as far as service, this one is not terrible.

great vet care

wow, since you received great care, you should try the exam and meds, before you make judgements. sometimes you need to find out things yourself, instead of listening to others.

i have been taking my pets there for about 15 yrs. he is a rough around the edges country doctor.

some situations that happen are out of his control, just like any other doctor.

compared to others i have been to in town, he rates the best. i have dealt with the others, and i did not

receive very good care.

Emergency Services Offered

This is the only vet in the area that allowed me to bring my pet in for an emergency appointment. I had actually called them while sitting in my car in the parking lot of an animal hospital that would not see me since I had never been there before. (My regular vet, on post, was gone and hadn't been replaced.) When I called the Pulaski Clinic they told me that I could come right over and that they would get me in with the Vet in just a few minutes. Consequently, my pet had a total physical ($30) and a full battery of blood tests done ($100). NOTE: payment is due immediately after the appointment and your total may vary from mine. The doctor gave me a good report on the spot and confirmed it later in the afternoon by calling me with the blood test results. I have heard warnings not to use the Pulaski Veterinary Clinic so I may have just been blessed that time with a good check up. The vet that I saw does have a very rough demenor and that may have a part in his bad reputation. For yearly exams and medication I will seek out an alternative clinic.
