Despite having to reschedule two appointments, we were treated courteously. Only two of the veterinarians have treated our Lillie, both were kind, gentle and most of all more thorough and accurate in helpful diagnosis than the three prior vets for a difficult raccoon wound that refused to heal initially.
We're a family with dogs and cats. AMC has been our vet provider for 10 years. We've had Dr. Brown Sr. and now Dr. Brown Jr. and the service from the entire office has been stellar. Our oldest dog is on meds for the remainder of her life and AMC has worked with us to keep the cost of the repeat Rx to a minimum by confirming the Rx for our internet pet pharmacy we use. When we adopted our youngest dog, they were very accommodating to getting her in for a full check-up right after coming home. A very courteous and professional operation. Reading previous reviews, there were some issues mentioned that I've never seen. Maybe these were employees that aren't there any more, but I've been taking my pets there every year, so I can't speak to what I haven't seen or experienced. Whenever someone asks me about where I take my pets, I tell them AMC is the place to go. I'm a long time local resident in the area.
I have to agree with sandi about the attitude at this clinic. I have been treated extremely rudely when needing to reschedule an appointment and actually grilled by the woman behind the desk as to what was so important that I needed to cancel. I also know Sandi and I are not the only ones to be treated like crap there. A friend of mine (who's pets are patients of Dr Brown) called the clinic late in the day on a Friday because her cat was having seizures. She said the woman who answered the phone was extremely rude and told her to make an appointment on MONDAY and she didn't have time even to make to make her an appointment even though she was calling during business hours on Friday. She asked to speak to Dr Brown and the woman would not let her, so she brought her cat in and demanded to see Dr Brown who of course helped her immediately. I no longer take my pet to this clinic anymore which is a shame because Dr Brown is great but most of his staff is terrible.
Dr. Sandra and Dr. Lewer are the most insensitive vets I have ever encountered! One of them told me to cut my kittens head off when it was born somewhat deformed. Then Dr Sandra had a hissy fit when I said I did not want that Dr. doing my dogs sugery because of his insensitive nature. She hid in the back of the clinic and would not give my poor dog the meds she needed for severe swelling of her knees. She has the worst bed side manner, and if not for Dr. Brown that clinic would be completley devoid of compassion for the parents of these sick animals. Dr Brown is very nice, but he is not there presently because he is recovering from surgery of his own. It might be a clean pretty place, but the attitude there is snotty. I would not recommend this clinic unless you have an appointment with Dr. Brown himself. Unfortunately , some of the girls up front are about the same as the dr.'s.......COLD and RUDE.
