Porter Animal Hospital

Editorial review from Citysearch

I love this animal hospital. Cannot say enough about the staff, they are all fantastic. The clinic is always clean, you can't even tell there have been animals around!! Dr. Elmer and his staff have cared for our Chow 12yrs old, which had to be put down :( , our Shih-Tzu now 14 and the most misbehaved of the bunch !! our Doberman now 4. We board these animals every summer with them for a min. of a month and they come back and you can tell they have been well taken care of. When it comes time for the Dobie to have his yearly check he races to the door. Tells me he likes being there :) ...

I've worked at a vet clinic for 4-5 years, now; however, we do not treat exotics, and I had to take my turtle in somewhere for a bacterial infection. Our own clinic had referred people to Dr. Elmer many times, so I made an appointment. From my viewpoint as a veterinary technician, this clinic and its staff are great. The clinic is very clean and cozy, the staff are all very kind and professional, and my turtle is doing awesome. Recently, I returned with my tortoise (who had pneumonia), and we were treated with great care once again, and my tortoise is now doing better than ever. In addition...

I GIVE THEM NOT A STAR OR EVEN HALF A STAR, but I have to give something just to tell it!! My dog was attacked on 11-22-11, by another dog. I have a small chiwawa, his name is ""Pancho"".

There were two receptionist at the front desk, with great concern I told them what happened. In such calmness one replied, ""Well we already have 2 walk ins today and we close at 6.00 pm , we can not see him"". I wanted to go off!! In stead my husband asked ""Where is the nearest other vet around...

This vet was recommended to us by our previous vet when we moved. We loved and trusted our vet and have been incredibly happy with her recommendation. Our dog is a bit skiddish when getting shots, but she has warmed up to the staff there. She has been boarded with them two times and has never been mistreated. The staff takes the time to get to know your pet.

We were actually out walking our dog when a guy approached us and started petting our dog and calling her by name. We asked how he ""knew"" her and he said that he worked at the vet's office. This was about 6 months since the...

I feel very confident in recommending Dr. Elmer and his staff at Porter Animal Hospital. I have been using his services for the last 5 years and have experienced nothing but a welcoming, caring environment. Dr. Elmer has always been upfront with me about pricing and recommended alternative, lower-priced options for both of my dogs.

In response to the individual who stated Dr. Elmer punched their dog in the face - I adamantly refuse to believe that as I have never seen him to be anything but gentle and kind when treating his patients.

In December of 2009 I had to put my beloved Golden...
