This place is rude. I rather drive 1hr30min back to my old vet to have him get his rabies shot and be seen. This lady person here push it like I didn't understand what she meant the first time telling me it's required by state. Ok don't processed to tell me 4 times while I'm… Read the full review on Google (opens in new tab)

Love the clinic but HATE the AI answering service. It is drawn out and shows where we are going. I choose to bring my children to Love Oak vs where I live in Jacksonville bc of the humanity and small town care that Caring Hands gives. It has seemed busy from time to time when… Read the full review on Google (opens in new tab)
I had recently had to put my furbaby to sleep and because of the "Caring Hands" of your clinic taking care of my sister's girls (Valerie Myers) I chose to bring Milo's possessions to y'all. Y'all are and will forever be part of our family! GOD BLESS Y'ALL💜! Yesterday (7Jul2026)… Read the full review on Google (opens in new tab)
Brought my pup in for an exam bc he was limping. He has a cracked nail bed. They clipped his nails to the quick on at least three toes, so now he’s in even more pain (and his nails were not that long. We just had them trimmed a week ago). I had to clean up blood off his toes… Read the full review on Google (opens in new tab)

Usually I have a decent experience here but today I saw a different vet and she was horrible. I didn't get her name but she is older with white hair and glasses. She spoke in a condescending tone the whole time and when I questioned her advice she added "this is just my… Read the full review on Google (opens in new tab)
Took my cat there on a thursday they took xrays and told me he was fine and have him inside for 3 weeks. That Saturday my cat was gone. No explanation or anything we paid $700 to be told he was fine and he still passed away. View on Google (opens in new tab)
It's ok. People are nice but their prices are outrageous. For a 2inch scar needing 3 stitches. 7,893$ and then when two stitches tore. Same price. I was able to get it patched with butterfly tape and a razor to shave my dog's fur away so the tape would stick. Please only use… Read the full review on Google (opens in new tab)
