Dr McLendon and his staff are always friendly and patient, even when they are very busy. They are gentle with my whippet. Even the big, beefy guys are sweet and Cricket trusts them. I've used them for 12+ years. Dr. McLendon always explains what's going on in layperson's terms. He is very down to Earth but also scary smart and has decades of experience. They also treated my MIL's two elderly cats and handled their deaths appropriately, knowing she was very attached to them. They will even take the time to clip my dog's toenails, which I never learned to do. She won't let me touch them, but doesn't mind a professional doing it!

Dr. McLendon and staff are the best! Always welcoming and professional. I wouldn't take my cat or puppy anywhere else. I have a giant breed dog that is prone to certain genetic disorders, Dr. McLendon took the time to read over the heighten risk of disorders with me and explain options if problems present. They are affordable and work hard to make sure you are seen in a timely manner.

Best vet ever!!! The staff really cares about our little pet family. Would recommend them to anyone and everyone!

Love this vet. I have 6 pit bulls and a german shepard and the staff here always takes great care of them. I once brought in a dog that belonged to my neighbor who was not taking care of him. The dog was so sick he would not eat or drink and could barely walk. They kept him for 2 nights and tried everything to save him. I even asked when i first brought him in if it would be better to put him down and the doctor said absolutley not he would do his best to save him. Unfortunatly the poor thing was to far gone and didnt make it. Well it turns out they gave him a blood transfusion, wormer, antibiotics and ran several tests on him and when i went to pay the vet came out and told me dont worry about it i didnt owe him a thing because they couldnt save him. I dont know of any other vet who cares so much about his patients. The staff is always nice and helpful and his prices are very fair compared to other vets in the area. I would recommend him to anyone!

I tried 4 clinics in Tuscaloosa, this being the best. Good at explaining what is known, what is recommended, what other possibilities are. They listen well and are patient in explaining. They also discuss alternative treatments or additional tests. They are good about not recommending additional testing that would mostly run up the bill. Ditto for recommending less expensive antibiotics and other treatments. They have been 100% correct in all the problems I had. My dogs have actually "enjoyed" going there, so they are good to the animals even when the owner is not there. Plus the people out front are friendly and nice. Highly recommended!
